8 yearsI got a call from this number yesterday afternoon. The person claimed to be from Microsoft and said there were hackers attacking my computer. They wanted me to switch it on so they could prove it. I told them it was nonsense and refused to do anything. They ended the call with a cheeky comment.Microsoft8 yearsSome bloke rang me saying he was Steve from Microsoft. Since I use Linux, I asked him where he got my number from, but he went quiet. I told him we’re on the TPS list and then he just hung up. Then I got a call again from Steve, claiming to be from BT OpenReach, wanting to boost our internet speed. I told him we’d be reporting this dodgy use of our phone digits. Considering we’re with Virgin Media, this whole thing sounds fishier than ever!SteveMicrosoftTelephone Preference ServiceBTVirgin Media8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Microsoft.

Then he said, and I’m not joking, "Why would you lie to me?" I told him not to start accusing me like that. After that, he asked if I had a laptop, I said no and made it clear I didn’t want any more calls from him. Then I just hung up.8 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were "Microsoft" telling me my computer was hacked.
