If it’s something urgent, they’ll usually leave a message.4 yearsOur landline was rung by these annoyin' pests at 01918149764 today, but like always, they just went quiet and hung up right away as soon as our answerphone started.4 yearsThey claimed to be from Virgin regarding issues with my internet service.Virgin4 yearsThe person on the other end was impossible to make out, then just suddenly ended the call.4 yearsYet another con artist!

I just tell them I don’t use broadband, then they hang up straight away.Virgin Media4 yearsI received a call from a woman with a foreign accent who struggled to say my name properly. After a bit of awkwardness, she hung up, and I felt it wise to block the number. Having browsed through other people's experiences, I’m rather relieved about my decision. It’s absolutely infuriating that one can’t even pick up the phone without being subjected to some kind of scam attempt.4 yearsI've set up an answering service on my mobile. When an unfamiliar number reaches out, I simply allow it to be sent to voicemail. Genuine callers often leave a message, while those who don’t? Well, that's when I take to Google. Nine times out of ten, I discover it's a dodgy scam, and I promptly block that number.Google4 yearsI received a call from this number, stating that my IP address was allegedly being misused by someone.

I told them I’d reach out to my internet service provider for clarification and promptly ended the conversation.4 yearsI got a call from a guy with an Asian accent claiming he was ringing from Microsoft. I’m not sure if that was genuine or not, but it did ring alarm bells for me since I was tricked before by a Microsoft scam. They got me to sign into my PC and then somehow took control of it remotely, telling me I had a virus they could fix if I paid up!Microsoft4 yearsSomeone rang up pretending to be from Virgin Media. They managed to persuade my elderly mum to install some kind of screening app, saying they were fixing her internet. After that, they started offering her money and asked her to look at her bank balance. She checked it on a different gadget and told them nothing had appeared. Then they asked how she was sure and wanted her to hold her phone over her banking app as proof. That’s when she just ended the call. Luckily she hadn’t given them any passwords, though she did share some bank details. It was really upsetting for her.Virgin Media4 yearsThose computer glitches really seem to annoy them, cause they usually hang up after a couple of minutes.4 yearsI got a Teams call today, but as soon as I didn’t pick up, the person just ended it. No message or anything left on voicemail. Pretty odd.4 yearsReally don’t get why the police don’t just check this site instead of making us fill out loads of paperwork...

Guess that wasn’t the answer she wanted to hear.Virgin4 yearsSomeone with an Asian accent called, claiming to be from Virgin Media. I told him straight away to stop bothering me and never call back.

He claimed to be from the IT Technical Services at Virgin Media and insisted that my account had been compromised. He offered to assist me in rectifying the issue. However, he became rather pushy and persistent when I expressed my disinterest and mentioned that I would prefer to investigate the matter on my own.IT Technical ServicesVirgin Media4 yearsGot a call where there was just silence on the other end. Really odd!4 yearsGot a call from a bloke claiming he was with Microsoft, but seemed dodgy to me.Microsoft4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming they were from Virgin Media, said they were in Bangalore. They tried getting me to put info into my computer but acted like I had no clue about tech stuff!

I've gone ahead and blocked the number now.4 yearsBeware of these fraudsters, they're definitely up to no good!4 yearsSomeone called saying they were from Virgin Media about an issue with my internet. As soon as I told them I'd call Virgin myself, they just ended the call.Virgin MediaVirgin4 yearsWas one of those scammers claiming to be from Microsoft, and I think he was based in India. I started copying his annoying nasal tone back to him, and you should've seen - he just lost it and slammed the phone down.MicrosoftIndia4 yearsI just let this one ring out and once my answering machine started, the call got cut off. Seems like all the warnings here are spot on. Best to just block it! Also, be careful with those fake numbers showing up on your caller ID - they can appear like someone local or even show a name or number you recognise, but it’s all a trick. I’ve seen a few of those dodgy ones myself recently.4 yearsGot scammed, beware!4 yearsI got a call from a polite woman with an Asian accent who said her firm spotted some dodgy users piggybacking on my internet for about a month and a half. She then went on about some great offer they had. When I asked her a simple thing about whether I had fibre or wire connection, she looked clueless and didn’t even know what a VPN was. Honestly, just hang up on them!4 yearsOpenreach mentioned there might be a problem with the line and said they'd email me a link about it.Openreach4 yearsI've no clue who was ringing me just now. I chose not to answer, and they didn't bother leaving a voicemail either.4 yearsGot a call from this number 01918149764, a lady saying she was with Virgin Media and there was a problem with my broadband.

Bit odd if you ask me.Virgin Media4 yearsGot a call from a guy, said he was from Microsoft or something. Looked like a sketchy Asian bloke to me. He kept going on about problems with my computer - yeah right! Total scam, trying to trick you into letting them put Teamviewer on your machine.

They really should find real work instead of bothering people like this.Microsoft4 yearsMy home phone rang and the person on the other end had a weird foreign accent. They claimed there was an issue with my phone line and said they'd send me a link by email. When I asked for my email, they couldn’t say it, which they definitely should if they were with my provider. This is a total con, don’t get caught out!4 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were "BT Technical". The woman had an Indian accent and there were kids playing in the background.
