Phone number ☎️ 01636812008 👆 is reported as a nuisance scammer number often calling repeatedly and claiming to be from Microsoft or BT technical support. Callers use Asian accents and pressure victims to grant access to their computers, citing fake issues like malware or router problems. Many report silent calls or immediate hang-ups when answering, while others have kept scammers on the line to waste their time. The scammers sometimes give bogus call-back numbers and become aggressive or rude if challenged. Most people recognise it as a phishing scam aiming to gain control of the victim's device. It appears to target both Windows and Apple users indiscriminately but is quickly deterred if told the device is not Windows-based. Overall, a persistent and unwelcome fraud attempt.

8 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to represent Microsoft, insisting they’d spotted a security problem on my device. I’ve had numerous similar calls before, so I recognise it as a scam straight away.Microsoft9 yearsI keep getting calls from someone with an Asian accent saying they're from Windows tech support. They claim my computer is sending them messages or something. I told them I don't even own a laptop, I only use my phone. Then when I said I work for Microsoft, the line just went dead right away. Such a dodgy call!Microsoft9 yearsPicked up and said hi but there was silence on the other end before they just hung up. Next time I’m keeping a whistle nearby, see if that changes anything.9 yearsi swear ive got this number ringing me non stop for like 4 months now, over a hundred times easy. its unreal!9 yearsI've been getting calls here and there for a few days now, but I don’t even have a PC hooked up. Every time it rings, there's just silence on the other end before it cuts off.9 yearsGot a call from this number twice today, first one was around 8:30 in the morning and then again just after 2 in the afternoon. When I picked up, I could hear people talking quietly, then the line just went dead. If they ring back (which they probably will), I’ll say my computer’s off. They usually hang about like they’re waiting for me to switch it on. After a few questions, they figure out it’s an Apple, not a Windows PC - that usually does the trick and makes them lose interest. I try to waste as much of their time as I can!9 yearsYou should defo report these straight to Ofcom as soon as you can.Ofcom9 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Asian accent claiming to be from the BT router team, saying there was a problem with my router and they needed access to my PC to fix it. I’ve been caught by this sort of scam before, so I wasn’t having it and just hung up. Then he had the cheek to call me a mother- over the phone! Honestly, steer clear of this rubbish, it’s a total scam.BT9 yearsWhat a hassle! Got two calls today already. The first was from an Asian guy talking about my windows, I only got to tell him once before I cut him off. Then the second call, no one even said a word. So annoying!9 yearsGot a call from 01636 812008, some bloke claiming to be with the Windows tech team. Told him I had a bad sore throat and just ended the call.9 yearsGot a call this morning at about 8:29 but there was just silence on the line.9 yearsGot a call today around 8:30 in the morning, but no one spoke when I answered. Very strange.9 yearsHad a look at the reviews for this number - total scammers trying to hack into your PC. Best to just ignore and not pick up.9 yearsGot a call from a guy called Allen Green, claiming he was from the Microsoft Windows tech team. He said my computer had been secretly installing malware for five weeks and that he could help me get rid of it if I switched on my PC and gave him some 36-digit code. I just kept him chatting for a while, which clearly annoyed him since he kept pushing me to hurry up and connect online. I finally told him, "I’ve no time for this," but he wasn’t backing down. Then I said, “I don’t trust a single word you're saying,” thanked him for the call and hung up.Allen GreenMicrosoftSubmit Your Own Report (01636 812008)
