4 yearsI can’t ring them back; it’s clearly a dodgy con.5 yearsSo, this 01917510055 number called me twice over just two days. Didn’t leave any voicemail or anything, so I haven’t got a clue who it might be. I think it’s somewhere in the northeast, since I’m based in Sunderland and 0191 is the code for round here. Bit odd, really.North EastSunderland5 yearsSome bloke rang claiming he was from Microsoft, said my computer was sending them error alerts or something. I told him to jog on and not waste my time!Microsoft5 yearsI had a rather amusing interaction with a woman named "Maria" earlier. She had such a strong Indian accent that it was quite pronounced. She claimed to be from the "cyber security team"-right, as if! I promptly blocked the number. Cheers, but no thanks!Maria5 yearsGot a call asking stuff about my PC and they wanted me to let them in remotely... Honestly, super risky! Definitely don’t do what they tell ya.5 yearsI opted not to pick up the call from this unknown number since my security software flagged it as a potential scam.

When I questioned his intentions, he resorted to some rather vulgar name-calling.5 yearsI had a rather unpleasant experience as well, during which the caller rudely referred to me as a right git.5 yearsGot a phone call from someone claiming to be Microsoft, saying there was an issue with my computer. I told them straight up I don’t own one, and honestly, the words they used after that were so rude, I’m not even going to say them!Microsoft5 yearsI received a call supposedly from Microsoft, claiming that my computer was compromised. The individual on the line had previously contacted me using the number 0151 456 0201. They even recounted my Microsoft Licence number to me, insisting they could assist with the issue! I decided to end the conversation. Shortly after, they attempted to reach me numerous times from both the numbers 0191 751 0055 and 0151 456 0201.Microsoft5 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Microsoft, total scam alert!Microsoft5 yearsJust got a ring from someone saying they were from Microsoft, warning me about some issues on my PC.

Bit cheeky for a “real” Microsoft, if you ask me!MicrosoftLondonDurham5 yearsSomebody called me saying they were from Microsoft security, telling me my PC was under attack. They asked me to go on my computer and do stuff they said, but I knew it was a trick so I just told them I don’t even have a computer. They didn’t like that and just hung up straight away. Be careful, it’s just hackers pretending to help!Microsoft5 yearsGot a call from a woman claiming to be from Microsoft, said there was an issue with my PC. Told her I don’t own a computer and reckon it's a scam.

The moment I mentioned that I didn't even use their products, they abruptly hung up. Classic scam tactics!Microsoft5 yearsAbsolutely agree. They ought to be located and brought to justice.5 yearsGot a call from a lady with kind of an American-sounding accent claiming to be Microsoft.
