Received a call from someone purporting to be part of a technical support team, insisting there were complications with my computer. The chap had a pronounced foreign accent and went on about how they could assist me. He wanted me to access the event log, claiming I'd unknowingly acquired numerous viruses. Naturally, I decided to block that number straightaway!

Received a call from a bloke with a foreign accent claiming he needed to check my PC for safety issues. I told him I didn’t want anything to do with it, but he got really annoyed, insisting he wasn’t trying to sell anything and kept pestering me to log into my computer. I told him to jog on. Tried ringing the number back from my phone but it just wouldn’t connect. Definitely looks like a hacking scam to me. Watch out if you get a call from this number!
