10 yearsThese folks are utterly hopeless when it comes to relaying messages. It's like they can't be bothered at all!12 yearsAnother scam involving Asian malware for PCs, it seems. It's quite baffling, isn’t it? Where's the law enforcement in all of this?12 yearsI've had a right dodgy experience with these callers. They ring up claiming to have spotted that my device is plagued with viruses or something along those lines, all in a bid to extract my personal details. It's nothing but a scam, really!13 yearsI attempted to return the call, but received a message saying that the number couldn't be recognized.13 yearsWhy do they continuously waste their precious time and energy? It is truly disheartening to witness them being deceived by lengthy and futile phone calls, only to end up paying for such a hollow experience. It is high time for authorities to prohibit such practices, as being an international call service provider should not serve as an excuse for companies like BT and others. Perhaps it's time to consider doing away with landlines altogether.BT13 yearsI received a phone call from an Asian gentleman who asked me to check for errors in the event viewer on my computer. I decided to let the call continue for a few minutes to see where it was heading, and then I ended the call. However, he called back and became aggressive, questioning why I had wasted his time and calling me out for thinking I was clever. In response, I pointed out that he was the one wasting his own time by calling me back, and promptly hung up again. Surprisingly, he called back once again, and we had the same conversation all over again. This time, I told him that I didn't appreciate cold calls and suspected it was a scam before ending the call. To my surprise, even his boss called me afterwards, and I told him the same thing. Talk about persistence!13 yearsI just received a phone call from this particular number. The person on the other end, who claimed to be Martin calling from ITC, identified himself as an Asian caller. He mentioned that my PC was indicating some issues. However, I promptly dismissed his claim and ended the conversation by instructing him to go somewhere else. It seemed like my response caught him off guard as he quickly hung up the phone after that.MartinITC13 yearsI wish phone companies would provide a spam block option for calls just like they offer for text messages. It would be really helpful to protect people from scam calls.13 yearsThis is clearly a fraudulent scheme. I have already reported them to TPS (Telephone Preference Service). However, if you do happen to have them on the line, I suggest prolonging the conversation as long as possible in order to waste their time.TPSTelephone Preference Service13 yearsOn October 24, 2013, at 12:10, a male caller of Asian descent contacted requesting information about PC/laptop/computer specifications, as well as the details of the owner.13 yearsI recently received a message from someone claiming to be from "PC Wizards" offering assistance with my PC troubles. However, upon further investigation, it turned out to be a total scam. I strongly advise against following any instructions or requests they may have.PC Wizards13 yearsI was not at home when someone called, and my answerphone captured the beginning of their message before they abruptly ended the call. I tried to call back, but the number I dialed is not recognized. It's strange how the 1471 system was able to record the number as 01977612209, yet now it is invalid. If this situation is indeed a scam, why haven't communication companies like BT taken measures to block the sender or implement some form of call bar? It's frustrating to experience such issues, especially since it took over six weeks to restore my phone line after a mishap during a home move cancellation.BT13 yearsDo the usual scams from Asian PC virus scammers ever end?13 yearsHuh, I received a call from an Asian gentleman claiming that there are issues with my laptop. He mentioned that my Windows operating system is associated with a phone number on his database. Well, that's quite unexpected!13 yearsBeware of a large-scale scam in which individuals attempt to gather information from your computer. Their goal is to infiltrate your PC with a virus that will require payment to remove. These scammers are often of foreign descent.13 yearsI was informed that there was an issue with my computer, specifically in an Asian accent.13 yearsAt precisely 15:40 on October 22nd, 2013, I responded but was met with a sudden silence as the line abruptly disconnected.13 yearsOur phone started ringing, but suddenly the call ended, and now we are unable to use it for the next 5 minutes. This incident occurred at exactly 3pm on October 22nd, 2013.Submit Your Own Report (01977 612209)
