It's quite something seeing how people deal with these calls. They always show up with some foreign number. The internet's full of rubbish these days. Nothing but people looking to waste our time. And who ends up footing the bill? $$$$$$$$$$$.

Just like many others, as soon as my answerphone picked up, the caller immediately ended the call.

Got another ring from the same bloke who called before, said his name was Adam again. I just went with, "Hi Adam, still peddling the Microsoft scam, are we?" Funny enough, he just ended the call right there. Bit cheeky if you ask me!

Got a call from some persistent bloke, probably from India or somewhere near there. Next time I’m feeling rubbish, I reckon I might have a bit of fun with them. I cough up enough for my phone bill, might as well get some entertainment out of it!

Somebody said they were calling from Microsoft support, supposedly near Reading, but they sounded like they were miles away! I played dumb on purpose to waste their time till they finally gave up and ended the call.

This morning, I got a call from a number that turned out to be a Microsoft scam. I immediately spotted it and decided to keep the caller on the line for more than 15 minutes. Eventually, I told him I was aware of the scam, and he called me a fool. I told him he’d been paying for the call and that I was stopping him from scamming others. After that, he hung up. Since then, I’ve had two more calls from the same number, but when I answer, there’s no response. Seems like he’s just trying to get on my nerves.

Got a call from some guy with an Asian accent around 3:10 pm claiming he was from Microsoft. He said he needed to have a look at some error alerts on my PC. I wasn’t having any of it, told him to jog on and hung up straight away.

Got a call from someone claiming to be Michael at Microsoft, but his voice was totally Indian or maybe Pakistani. Just the usual nonsense, so I ended it quickly by telling him to take a swim in the river.

Like, this happens a lot - whenever my answerphone kicks in, the caller just drops the call straight away. It's the same thing every single week, really annoying.

Got a call from this number a few times today, a foreign voice claiming to be from Microsoft. When I finally picked up and said “North Wales Police,” the line went straight dead. Pretty suspicious, if you ask me!

They didn’t even bother to leave a voicemail, so it’s obvious they’re not someone I know. Sounds like one of those typical scam calls like others have mentioned.

On the 9th of April, I got a call from 01745591866. When I answered, there was total quiet on the other end, and they hung up pretty quickly. Later, I tried calling them back, but the number wasn’t recognised at all. Quite odd!

Picked up the phone and there was nothing but silence. Tried ringing them back and the call just dropped straight away. Definitely some sort of phishing or nuisance call.

Got a call from a man with an Indian or Pakistani accent claiming he was from Microsoft tech support. He said my PC was hacked and wanted me to let him access it for a few minutes to fix it. I just ended the call and put his number on block. Definitely watch out for this classic scam!

Some bloke with a strange accent said he was from Microsoft. I told him I don’t even own a PC, and the only tablet I have is from my doctor! He wasn’t funny at all - ended up swearing at me, calling me a motherf***er a couple of times and then a di**head before he just hung up on me.

Got two calls today from 01745591866. The first was some bloke claiming to be from Microsoft, sounded Indian. Later on, the phone rang again but when I answered, no one was there - just woke me up! Honestly, it’s frustrating BT doesn’t block these types of calls. Seems like most of them come from India, and it’s just a bunch of dodgy scammers to me. Proper annoying.

A caller claiming to be from Microsoft started chatting about my boyfriend out of nowhere. When she asked if I spoke Chinese, I replied in thick Scots, which seemed to throw her off, so I just ended the call.

Got a call from 01745591866, a local? the bloke said he was from Microsoft in the States but apparently working out of London. He started asking stuff about my PC. When I tried to call back, BT’s voice came up saying the number wasn’t recognised. I’d say watch out for this one!

My phone showed 01745 591866 as "international", but since it looked like a local number, I picked up. A man claiming to be from "Microsoft" asked for me personally. I quickly ended the call. Later in the day, the same number rang again but I didn't answer this time. This screams scam to me - you'd think if no one answered, they’d stop? It’s really frustrating that BT can’t seem to block these fraudsters, and it's quite creepy that they apparently have your name.

Today I got a call from a guy who couldn’t even pronounce my last name right and he messed up my gender too. When I said I was going to hang up, he suddenly started babbling something that sounded like Chinese or some other language. I just wished him a good day and ended the call. That was the end of it.

Just got called again by this number, and it's only been a few hours since the last time. The caller ID says it’s from abroad, so I reckon it’s a fake number. When I picked up, they just ended the call right away. Definitely looks like some kind of scam.

I noticed this number looks like it's from around here, but the caller ID was showing it as an international call, which seemed a bit dodgy. I didn’t pick up, and it stopped ringing once it hit my voicemail. These types of calls are really tricky because they try to pass off as local, but it's definitely some scammy behaviour. Really dodgy stuff.

The caller ID appeared as an international number, though it was actually a spoofed UK number. When I picked up, the person immediately ended the call - pretty typical scam behaviour, and seems like others had the same experience. Since it was an unknown number, I expected my BT call filtering to block it, but obviously that didn’t work. Really disappointing from BT’s end!

01745591866 called me claiming to be from Microsoft. When I refused to put anything into my computer for him, he got quite aggressive. I ignored the first three calls and let them go to voicemail but picked up on the fourth time. Told him to stop ringing me and he actually threatened me! I've blocked the number now, but I’m sure they'll just switch to a different one. Proper nasty lot.

got a call from this number, some woman saying my computer was hacked or something. I played along for a bit to waste their time, then just ended the call when they sounded angry. then she rang back a few mins later, yelling that she was gonna shut my computer down. I guess some folks might actually freak out if they got threats like that.

Got a call from a number, but when I picked up, there was nothing on the line. Then, a couple of minutes later, another call came through from 04174559186, and there was still no one there. Seems a bit odd since both numbers looked really alike, probably not just a random chance.

Definitely a scam, but I decided to humour them. Turns out it was the identical caller someone else mentioned on here. I asked which PC she was referring to, and she said "the one with Windows 10." I told her I wasn’t exactly sure what she meant. She started to say "let me help you with that..." but I interrupted and said something along the lines of "how about you just leave me alone!" I’ve blocked the number straight after.

Somebody rang saying my PC had been taken over by hackers and was doing dodgy stuff. I played along, pretending I couldn’t start the computer and kept them chatting for about 10 minutes before I just ended the call. Then they phoned back around 90 minutes later and I gave them a firm telling off.

I got a call from 01745591866 claiming to be from Microsoft. I told him straight away I wasn’t falling for it since he called last week and woke me up during my night shift. Wasn't having any of it and ended the call. Then he called again after I gave him a bit of a telling off. He tried saying he was locking my computer, but I just told him to go ahead because he obviously knows nothing about it. Ended the call again. Seriously, the best thing is just block them.
