12 yearsThis guy from India called me saying he was with Microsoft, but I knew straight away it was one of those dodgy Windows scams!MicrosoftIndia12 yearsI got a call from this number but as soon as I picked up, they just disconnected.12 yearsI got a call from tech support today. Was having some issues with my PC and needed a hand.12 yearsI got a call from a woman with a heavy foreign accent claiming to be from Windows tech support.

They’ll claim there’s something wrong with your computer or laptop. Then they try to get you onto a website where they ask you to follow some steps. By doing this, they end up taking over your device and get access to all your information. Afterwards, they install malware and steal your bank or credit card info, draining your accounts.

We offer support and practical advice to those affected.12 yearsGot a call out of the blue from this number earlier, some woman said she was from the IT support team and said my laptop had some kind of issue. She spoke with a thick Indian accent and was quite hard to get properly. Didn’t really know what to believe so I just hung up quick.
