This number rang me twice earlier today. I haven’t a clue who it might be, as I didn't pick up since the number was unfamiliar to me.

Received a call purportedly from Microsoft, saying they wanted to run some diagnostics on my computer. I politely declined, thank you very much!

He gave me the name Dennis, and when I replied with a quick "hello Dennis," he just suddenly ended the call.

I got loads of calls yesterday and got pretty annoyed when I had to ask them again who they were with. They only gave me my name and address before hanging up when I asked for their company. And now, I keep getting calls from numbers that are just a digit off from the original one. Proper frustrating!

So this woman called up, sounded a bit unsure of herself, and said she was from Microsoft's fibre security team. She tried to check if I was the primary user of my PC. It was clearly a dodgy call. Honestly, I can't see Microsoft having a fibre security division, and even if they did, I’m sure they wouldn’t ring you out of the blue like that.

In just 20 minutes, they rang me three times. I answered twice, and each time all I got was a weird “huh” after I said hi. I didn’t let them get a word in, figured it must be a scam, so after the third ring, I blocked the number straight away.

Every time they call, it's from a number that looks alike and then they just hang up. I keep blocking them but they just keep ringing!

I got a call on my mobile from someone I'd never heard of before, which was odd since I don't share my number much. The guy didn't say who he was, just asked for a woman by her first name. I don't know anyone by that name and nobody else uses my phone. He must have thought she lived here, but I got a funny feeling this might have been a scam - the number showed up as a Sky customer service line, which I’ve seen linked to scams before. So yeah, watch out for that!

Some guy with a thick Indian accent phoned me claiming my PC was hacked and had a virus leaking sensitive info. I told him I run AVG antivirus but he insisted it wasn’t from my downloads, rather from browsing certain sites. Honestly, I know that’s pure rubbish. When I tried to ask for his company or name, the call suddenly dropped - no dial tone or anything. If you get a call from this number, don’t fall for downloading anything they tell you to. They’ll get straight into your computer and nick all your important stuff like bank details, photos, emails and use it for scams.

got a call on my work number from someone who knew my name, asking about a crash from last year. something like that happened with my other half too, which we had to report since she drives on my insurance. i’m pretty sure compare the market leaked my info. when i asked for the car reg number, the guy claimed data protection rules stopped him from telling me. thinking of hitting them up for a full subject access request under the dpa - probably won’t help me much, but it’ll make them dig deep into their records at a cost! :)

Within less than an hour, this person rang me 7 times. When I picked up at last, she claimed she’d had an accident but got annoyed and argued when I said I didn’t. She was really nasty and just ended the call. Honestly, this behaviour is out of order and they should be locked up for this. Totally unacceptable.

In the last day, I got four calls from numbers that looked nearly the same. I picked up the first one out of curiosity. The bloke asked me if I was (name), so I replied with, ‘Who’s this then?’ He asked again, ‘Are you (name)?’ but I told him I wanted to know who was calling me first. That seemed to annoy him, and he shouted ‘Alright, just get lost’ before hanging up. Felt like a total scam since he got so bothered when I didn’t give my details.

I was keen to get some information regarding my property and the various items I owned. However, the person on the line was quite uncooperative, and when I pressed further, they grew flustered and abruptly ended the call. To make matters worse, they referred to me by a name linked to an email that was compromised not long ago. I've actually set up a different account under a revised name specifically for occasions like this, where I’m compelled to divulge an email address, fully aware that I’m likely to end up with a deluge of promotional junk.

I've received numerous calls from this number, but they never bother to leave a message. They typically ring during the mornings, roughly between 8 and 2. I haven't answered yet, so I've had no interaction with whoever it is on the other end.

Over the past few days, I've gotten quite a few calls from this number and others like it. They seem to be fishing for my personal info. Pretty annoying!

Received a call purporting to be from Microsoft regarding my PC. This comes after a flurry of calls from the same so-called Microsoft number (02039622886) in recent days, all of which I’m quite sceptical about.
