I picked up the call but there was silence before it just ended. This week I've had loads of calls like this. One caller claimed to be from Microsoft, which I know was a total scam. Also, I missed another call while out, it went to voicemail but no message was left. From the sound of it, some foreign language was being spoken, so I reckon that was from some overseas call centre and another scam. Pretty sure this call was the same deal.

We recently discovered that we'd been signed up with 24sevenpccare.com after experiencing some issues with our computer. Initially, we weren't even aware of this arrangement, but it turns out we had multiple problems that had been lurking under the surface. To our relief, our computer is now back to running smoothly! A big thank you to 24sevenpccare for bringing this to our attention and for resolving everything so efficiently. We're truly grateful!

I had a rather dubious phone call from someone claiming to be a certain 'Michael Smith', but they had a hefty Asian accent. I mean, come on! They went on about supposed problems with our laptop, insisting they needed to fix it over the phone. However, they couldn’t pinpoint what exactly was wrong, just kept harping on about pesky viruses and software errors! Quite the story, isn’t it?

We received a call from 01618840505, claiming to be from EvelynBT Technical, and they mentioned something about needing to "fix" our computer. Honestly, it was rather difficult to grasp what they were on about, so we decided to hang up.

I had a rather peculiar experience with someone claiming to be a chap named Michael Smith, but with a rather pronounced Asian accent. Quite the tall tale, I must say! This individual insisted there were issues with our laptop that required fixing over the phone. However, when pressed for specifics, all they could repeat were vague mentions of viruses and software malfunctions without really pinpointing the actual problem. It's all very dubious if you ask me!

We found ourselves in a rather unsettling situation with this company who tried to pull a fast one on our dear Aunty. Naturally, we took it upon ourselves to alert the authorities. It's quite disheartening how scams of this nature-especially pretending to be affiliated with BT Technical Support-are still running rampant. It beggars belief that not more stringent measures are in place to bring these fraudsters to heel. They had the audacity to try and extract £120 from us, but thankfully they failed in their attempts. I’m a Computing Support Officer at the University of Oxford, and it’s alarming to see such blatant dishonesty.

Just received a call from someone claiming there's a problem with our computer. We asked for the company's name and location. The chap on the line said his name was Frank Williams and he was calling from Instant Resolve, supposedly based in India. When we asked for a contact number, they provided us with 0161 884 0505. We tried to ring it, but all we got was a continuous tone. Quite suspicious, really!
