Reports on phone number 01778570277
11 yearsAbout five days back, my hubby got a call from some Asian lady claiming there was a problem with our home PC. He quickly told her they were just scammers. She asked why he thought that, and he said if she had the right info, she’d know we don’t even own a home computer. Plus, the laptop I use is work-issued and kept fully updated by my company. Then he told her to get lost and ended the call. When will these pesty calls finally give up?11 yearsEarly this morning I got a call from a woman with an Asian accent who claimed there was an issue with my computer. I told her I don’t even own a computer, and she just hung up straight away. I’ve gone ahead and blocked that number now.11 yearsDefinitely put this number on your block list... these scammers aren’t to be trusted. Honestly, don’t give out any info to anyone who rings asking for your personal stuff - it’s nobody’s business but your own. Keep it to yourself and stay safe out there!11 yearsGot a ring from this number earlier. A woman with an Indian accent told me my computer had "junk" on it. I told her that was nonsense since I don’t even own a computer, and she just dropped the call.11 yearsGot a call from an asian guy saying I was signed up for some kind of windows or apple software. He admitted he wasn’t actually from Microsoft when I asked. He couldn’t say which operating system I’m using, but kept insisting he needed to "check my software". I just hung up on him.AppleMicrosoft11 yearsEvery time my call screener picks up, it just keeps calling and then hanging up straight away.11 yearsSome bloke called saying he was with an IT firm and needed to fix something on my PC, but I just hung up straight away.11 yearsI got a call from this number on my home phone around 9:35 in the morning. Didn’t pick up since I didn’t know who it was. These calls are honestly so annoying.11 yearsGot a call from this number not long ago. The guy was going on about some eventvwm thing and almost had me fooled. Then I asked where he got my info from, and he claimed I was a registered Microsoft user - which isn’t true, since the laptop belongs to my work. I told him I'd have our IT team ring him back, and he just dropped the call. What’s their angle here? Shouldn’t Microsoft be cracking down on this kind of stuff?Microsoft11 yearsGot a call this morning from someone claiming to do computer checks or something, didn't buy it for a second and just ended the call. Not falling for that one.11 yearsSo I got a call from this number and the guy said he was George Williams, working in IT support or something. He wanted to chat about problems with my computer but as soon as I told him I don’t even own one, he just cut me off. Bit strange!George Williams11 yearsYou'll find this funny, I told them my computer was giving me trouble and they said they could fix it. So, they asked for my username, I said B*********. Then they wanted my password, to which I answered F****k O***. Hilarious, right?11 yearsGot a call at home from someone claiming my Windows machine was alerting about Windows 10 issues. They kept addressing me as "ma'am" and kept spouting nonsense I could tell was rubbish. I told them I worked in IT and called out their lies - like pretending to be Microsoft support when they clearly weren't. Eventually, they just ended the call.Microsoft11 yearsThis number rang me on Friday around 11:30 while I was away. I really don’t get why they don’t keep their number private. They should really be blocked or something!!11 yearsI got a call saying there was something wrong with my computer. I told the lady it sounded like a scam but she just kept denying it. I ended up just hanging up on her.11 yearsThis number keeps ringing me, but whenever I pick up, it’s dead quiet and then they just cut the call. Weird one.11 yearsSome bloke rang me asking questions about my computer, and when I fibbed that I worked in computer engineering, he just ended the call.11 yearsAs soon as we answered the call, it went completely quiet. Some people are implying that it might be a pesky tech glitch or something along those lines.Submit Your Own Report (01778 570277)
