8 yearsI received a call from a chap with a thick Indian accent who claimed that my computer was sending out error messages. He urged me to follow a series of steps on my device to supposedly rectify the issue. I ended the call promptly. Total scam!10 yearsGot a quiet call, maybe 'cause my answerphone was switched on.10 years01777484585 rang me again, same old nonsense about my computer and Windows. Total rubbish as always!10 yearsI left them a useless voicemail just to be safe. BE CAREFUL: these folks might be looking to sneak Windows malware onto your device. If you've got an old PC gathering dust, backup anything important onto a USB stick and install Debian Linux on it. Giving Linux the whole hard drive is the best way since it wipes what's there. It’s a Unix-based system, completely different from Windows, so most Windows viruses won’t touch it. If you get the hang of Linux, you can mess with these callers a bit - maybe tell them you work in IT for a big firm that runs on Unix.BEWARE10 yearsGot a call from an Asian guy saying there was something wrong with my computer. I acted clueless and pretended to go along with what he was saying. People doing these scams should really get jailed. I kept him chatting for a bit just to waste his time and make the call a little costlier on his side, rather than just hanging up straight away.10 yearsGot a call today from a strange number and some bloke with a weird accent claiming to be from "online support". I just hung up straight away. That number’s now saved on my BT8500 to be blocked forever. Honestly, this phone is a lifesaver! Just don’t get why these scammers aren’t getting into serious trouble for what they do.10 yearsGot a call earlier where they claimed to be from Windows tech support. Didn't bother with it and just ended the call straight away.10 yearsGot a call earlier from a lady who had an Asian accent. I asked if we knew each other, and she said no. Then I told her not to bother calling again. She went on about something to do with my computer, but I told her I'm not daft and to stop wasting my time by ringing me. The number showed up on my phone, and I even checked with 1471 - it said the number was out of service. Just another blocked scammer, I reckon.10 yearsGot a call earlier today from some dodgy bloke going on about my computer being full of viruses. I said I use a Mac, and he didn't believe me, reckoning I was making it up. I just told him to nick off, offered him a banana for the road, and cheekily asked if he even had a proper work visa. Typical scam nonsense!10 yearsGot a call from some bloke with an Indian accent going by the name "Mark," saying he was ringing from "Smartech" based on Hanover Street, London, claiming to offer Microsoft tech support. He told me my computer had malware, but I found it pretty pointless to argue since I only use a Mac. Obviously didn't trust a word he was saying. He mentioned he'd ring back the next day to speak to someone who actually owns a PC. Looking forward to that one, not!MarkSmartechHanover StreetLondonMicrosoft10 yearsGot a call from a lady who sounded like she was from India or somewhere like that. Couldn't quite catch what she was saying, so I said I only speak English. She claimed she did too, so I asked her to slow down (just messing around a bit). She started on about some virus messing up my computer, but I said I don’t even have one. Then she insisted her system showed I had a computer, so I just said sorry, she was right, I do have one - but I don’t have a landline.10 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent claiming my PC was sending error messages to Microsoft. She said she was calling from Mayfair, London, but the number was actually from Retford. I could hear a lot of busy office sounds in the background. Definitely a complete rip-off. Stay far away from these scammers!MicrosoftMayfairLondonRetford10 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Indian accent saying my PC was sending error reports to Microsoft. She claimed to be calling from Mayfair, London, but the phone number was actually from Retford. I could hear loads of busy office sounds in the background like it was all faked. Definitely a total rip-off. Stay well clear of this!IndiaMicrosoftMayfairLondonRetford10 yearsGot a call from this number on the 19th of March, and honestly, the person on the other end was pretty rude and pushy.10 yearsGot a call from some guy claiming to be from Microsoft Windows, kept insisting I turn my computer on. I kept telling him I was recording the call, he didn’t like that and ended up hanging up. Total scam.Microsoft10 yearsHad a dodgy call from someone fiddling about with Windows computer problems. Total scam, trying to get me to pay for stuff I didn’t need. Glad I didn’t fall for it, just a heads up for anyone else getting similar calls!10 yearsthis guy with an accent called me claiming there was an issue with my computer. i told him to stop ringing me or i wouldn’t answer again, but then he started acting all aggressive, saying something about them taking away my computer licence. quite creepy really.10 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Indian accent saying our Microsoft computer's servers showed some kind of issue. Just another scammer trying their luck.Microsoft10 yearsI got a call from some woman who was mumbling nonsense. It was pretty clear she wasn't calling from the UK at all, so I just told her to buzz off.UK10 yearsGot a call from some bloke saying he’s a Microsoft tech based in London, trying to sort out my computer remotely! Total scam, I reckon.MicrosoftLondon10 yearsLooks like one of those Microsoft scams again. They say they’re based in London but the number actually shows Retford, Nottinghamshire. Does anyone know if there’s a way to find the address linked to this number? Also, does the company have an official name?MicrosoftLondonRetfordNottinghamshire10 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Indian accent claiming my Microsoft PC had sent loads of error reports to their system. Complete con job. I told him to jog on and he lost it before cutting me off.Microsoft10 yearsI got a call from someone claiming my computer was sending error messages to their server - sounded dodgy from the start. She told me to turn on my computer, so I faked it and said there was an apple logo on the screen. She went on saying that wasn’t possible for my machine or summat. I let out a loud whistle down the phone, which seemed to throw her off, and then she started getting rude. I just ended the call there and then.PakistanApple10 yearsHonestly, how many more times are we gonna let these nuisance calls keep happening? For about 50 quid, it’s really easy to put an end to them. What’s the trick? Well, if you’ve already got Caller ID (like most folks do), all you need is a phone that comes with Tru-Call tech built in, like the BT8500. Once you’ve got that sorted, you won’t have to deal with those annoying telemarketers pestering you again, no more faffing about!10 yearsThis lady rang me up saying there was something wrong with my computer, but when I told her I don’t even own one, she just accused me of lying.10 yearsGot a call from a woman with an accent who asked straight away for me by name. She said she was from "word support" or something like that, trying to help with my computer. I told her I don't even own a computer, but then she switched and asked if I had a tablet or anything like that instead!10 yearsI accidentally let my phone slip and tumble as I went to grab it.Submit Your Own Report (01777 484585)
