01618266936 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01618266936 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number targeting UK residents with calls claiming to be from Microsoft technical support. Callers often speak with foreign accents and use aggressive, threatening tactics to pressure recipients into granting remote access to their computers or following dubious instructions. Many report early morning calls, sometimes waking people from sleep, adding to the nuisance and distress caused, particularly to vulnerable individuals. The callers frequently misrepresent their location and provide inconsistent details. Recipients are advised not to engage, never disclose personal information, and report these calls to official fraud authorities. Blocking the number helps but does not fully prevent repeat calls, as scammers frequently change numbers. Exercising caution and awareness is essential to avoid falling victim to this common and dangerous scam.

Can't help but wonder why that bloke Chris, who pretends to be from Microsoft, doesn't bother to check what time it is here in the UK before ringing me up. Getting calls from scammers bright and early in the morning is just downright rude, even more so than having to deal with them during decent hours.

I didn’t pick up since the number was unfamiliar. They’ve rang me a few times this past week, the most recent one was at 8:10 in the morning. Honestly, if I get calls that early from unknown numbers, I just assume it’s some kind of spam.

Some bloke rang up and wanted to know if I was the person with my last name. I asked him who he was, and he just repeated the question like he didn’t hear me. I repeated mine, asking who he actually was. Then he told me to speak louder. So, I shouted back asking who he was a bit louder. Next thing, he’s saying I’m shouting for no reason. I told him he told me to speak up! Turns out he was "Chris from Microsoft" or so he claimed. Chris then dropped a really awful swear word on me! Definitely a total scammer, no doubt about that!

Got a call early on a Saturday, around 8.15am, from someone speaking with an American accent pretending to be from Microsoft about issues with my computer. When I questioned why she was waking me up so early, she just told me to pay attention. I told her she was bonkers then she abruptly ended the call.

I got a call from a woman with a heavy accent claiming to be from Microsoft, telling me my computer was compromised. I asked her to explain more, then a bloke called James Carter came on the line. He even recited my computer's licence number, but I pressed him for the number he was calling from. He was really dodgy about giving it up and we ended up arguing. Eventually, he threw in an address in Reading as Microsoft’s contact. I told him I’d hang up to check everything out since it smelled like a scam to me. Fraud’s become the biggest crime in the UK now, far more than burglary or assaults, but the authorities seem to put hardly any effort into stopping these scams. These scammers wanted access to my computer. Fair play, I’m pretty tech savvy, but plenty of folks aren’t so lucky. They should be hunted down and stopped before loads more people get ripped off. This number and the people behind it need proper investigation pronto.

Got a call from this bloke at half past seven on a Saturday morning, can you believe it? He was proper rude, kept demanding to talk to my hubby, even though I told him I don’t have one. Clearly, he had the wrong info. I told him to wipe my number off their list and never ring me again. Definitely some sort of scam. Do these scammers really think we’re daft? Something needs to be done about these cheeky types.

He immediately started cussing at me, saying it's none of my damn concern and that he's a person too, demanding I tell him if she's passed away so he can remove her from his list. Proper unpleasant behaviour. He said he was from Microsoft about her computer, but she doesn’t even have one. Ridiculous.

Got a call from some bloke with a funny accent claiming he was in Reading, but the number was 0161 826 6936 - which I know is a Manchester code, not Reading’s. He said my PC was hacked, which I reckon was his way of trying to get control if I let him near my computer. I hung about on the line for a bit until I lost patience and he started getting really annoyed. He wanted me to drive to Reading - no clue why, maybe to sneak into my home or something dodgy. These kinds of calls are proper dodgy and should be flagged. Definitely mark that number as risky!

I was pretty sure it was one of those scams but played along and asked where they were calling from. Got the answer “Reading.” Then I asked which county Reading’s in and what castle’s nearest to it - he had no idea! Hung up after that.

BE WARNED, IT'S A TOTAL SCAM!!! Never pick up, but if you do, under no circumstances let them get into your computer. They pretend to be from Microsoft claiming your PC has been hacked, but if you let them in, that’s when they actually mess with your machine. Stay safe and don’t fall for it!

Got a call from a woman who said she was from Microsoft’s tech team, telling me my laptop was infected with a virus. Total scam, she was trying to get into my computer remotely.

At 8 in the morning, they just wouldn’t quit. After we cut off the call, they called again twice and came across as really cheeky.

Got a call bright and early at 7 this morning, Friday 25 March 2022. Some bloke with what sounded like an American/Indian accent claiming he was from Microsoft. I’m pretty sure it was a scam, so I just ended the call. Then he rang back and kept going on, but I hung up once more and put the number on block.

Our landline never rings before 7:50am unless it’s some dodgy seller or scammer, so clearly this morning's call was one of those. The accent made me think it was coming from abroad. They began chatting about my computer, but since I only use a work computer, I knew any call about a home PC was a scam. I played the part of completely clueless, and after a few minutes, the woman just hung up.

Someone called saying there’s a computer linked to our place, but when I mentioned we don’t own a laptop, they got really rude and started yelling at me to be quiet.

Beware of scams! If you get one of these dodgy calls, make sure you report it. A good place to start is by searching for ‘action fraud’ and heading over to the official police.uk website. Once there, find the ‘report a phishing attempt’ section and take time to read all the info carefully. When you’re ready, you can submit the scam details right into the police’s system, including any links or web addresses involved. This helps the police keep track of how many of these con jobs are going on.

Got a call from a woman with a thick accent claiming she was calling from Microsoft saying my laptop got hacked. I told her straight up she was trying to scam me and hung up. She tried calling again and sounded pretty pissed off, even offered to prove she was legit. Still, I just ended the call.

Got a call at about 7:10 this morning from someone claiming to be Microsoft. It was a lady with an Asian accent who asked if it was a good time to talk. I told her no and said she should just send any info in writing. After that, I ended the call. Definitely seemed like a scam to me.

Got a call bright and early, about 7:45 in the morning, from someone saying they were from Microsoft. It seemed dodgy right from the start. When I cheekily asked if they even realised what time it was to be calling, they just hung up on me. Total scam, I'd say!

Got a call at 7:25 in the morning, just silence on the other end. Pretty sure it's one of those pointless automated calls trying to check if someone's there. Total waste of time.

This number has been ringing me non stop, 3 times today and twice the day before. They keep saying they’re going to shut down my laptop because they have some ID number. Can someone please make them stop phoning me? It’s getting really annoying!

Just before 8 this morning, I got a call again from what sounded like Microsoft after not getting one for a while. The caller had that typical foreign accent, and the moment the woman mentioned Microsoft, I told her I was hanging up immediately since it was obviously a scam and not worth my time!

Hey, just got a ring from someone claiming to be from Microsoft’s tech support about a Windows PC I don’t even own. I could tell right away it was a scam, but I reckon not everyone would be so sure.

No way am I answering early morning calls! So happy we skipped it, just seeing the comments is enough to say we made the right choice.

They didn’t say anything, just hung up, so I reckon it’s just another one of those dodgy scam calls. Honestly, I’m getting pretty used to these kind of calls all the time now.

Got a call like this, and it was defo a scam. Really wise to just let it ring off and never share any details with them.
