Reports on phone number 01793421251
12 yearsGot a call earlier saying there was an issue with my computer. Thing is, I don’t even own a computer! I told the bloke that, and he just hung up straight away. Wondering where they found my details - must’ve been passed on by someone for sure!12 yearsGot a call from some dodgy bloke trying to convince me to let him hook up to “my computer” - mind you, he had no clue if I even owned one. If you fall for that, he’ll want full control access. I won’t go into what could come after that, but it ain’t good. Proper irritating call, best just hang up.12 yearsI got a call from a man who had quite a strong Indian accent and it was really hard to catch everything he said. He claimed to be from some "text helpline" and told me that every time my computer was used, it was letting viruses in or something along those lines. I asked him for a phone number so I could ring him back and check if he was legit. Instead of a number, he began telling me a website address. I insisted I wanted a phone number, even though I could see the caller's number on my screen. He couldn’t provide one and then just hung up. The call came from 01793 421251.12 yearsSomeone rang me, I tried dialing back but it was just dead silence. Definitely feels a bit dodgy!12 yearsGot a call from this number a moment ago. My little one, who's about 5, picked up the phone and then they just ended the call straight away. I tried calling back but the number turns out to be invalid. Strange behaviour!12 yearsGot a call from some "Hannah" claiming to be from a computer support team. As soon as I mentioned I'd report her to the cops, she just hung up on me. Total scam, beware!Hannah12 yearsThey keep ringing me a few times a week, always asking for some woman who apparently lived here about five years ago. Total muppets. I just put the phone down every time.12 yearsGot a call from a guy with a thick Asian accent who somehow already knew my last name. He started saying something about me not owning any computers, which made no sense to me. When he kept going on and said he'd shut off my internet, I lost my cool and told him to never ring me again. Then he just hung up.12 yearsMy daughter answered a call from the same number, and it turned out to be a total scam. Seriously, why aren't these calls shut down already?12 yearsI told them I didn’t own a computer and they just ended the call straight away! When I tried ringing back, all I got was a dead line sound.12 yearsLooks like a PC on this network has been grabbing a bunch of files from the web or something.12 yearsJust got a call from this number. I told them they’d got the wrong person and there’s no Windows PC here. Then called him out for lying through his teeth. He ended the call right after.12 yearsGot a call from this number on the 6th of August, 2014 around 12:48. When I answered, all I could hear was some sort of beeping noise and no one spoke.12 yearsSome bloke said my PC had virus problems and offered to sort it out, but I just hung up straight away.12 yearsI got a call from someone claiming my computer was infected with a virus and offered to 'fix' it. I told them straight away that I’m a tech pro, spent years working with BT and other telecom firms, and that I’d be reporting them for this scam. Needless to say, they hung up quickly.BT12 yearsCalled this number on 6th August around 16:13 and there was just silence when I answered.12 yearsIt was quite unexpected, but the moment I accused the person on the line of trying to scam me, they just ended the call!12 yearsToday, on 06/08/2014 around 1:08pm, I got a call from 01793421251. The guy on the other end, speaking with an Indian accent, claimed my computer was secretly downloading stuff online. When I asked him to give me my IP address, he dodged the question and instead tried to convince me to open my laptop so he could "help". I wasn’t having any of it and called him out as a scammer before telling him to piss off. He promptly ended the call.12 yearsI've just received another call from them, and I told them we're onto their tricks. We're going to track down that bloody telephone number from India and give them a ring back repeatedly!India12 yearsAvoid this number at all costs; seems like a dodgy prankster playing games. How ridiculous!12 yearsI ended up telling the bloke from India to take a hike!India12 yearsI've come across these characters before; it's as if they keep switching their numbers. It looks like I'm dealing with the same lot of con artists. Honestly, just tell them to do one!12 yearsHi there!

Fingers crossed these individuals refrain from calling us once more.12 yearsSame here. She didn’t specify which machine she meant, and I happen to have three switched on right now. I let them know not to squander either of our time.Submit Your Own Report (01793 421251)
