These folks are utterly hopeless when it comes to relaying messages. It's like they can't be bothered at all!

Another scam involving Asian malware for PCs, it seems. It's quite baffling, isn’t it? Where's the law enforcement in all of this?

I'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!

I tried ringing them back but my phone just said 'number not recognised'.

I really don't get why they bother at all, just throwing away their time and effort. Honestly, I found it quite funny taking their time while making them pay for a pointless call. There should be a ban on these calls, especially since being from abroad doesn’t seem to be a valid excuse for BT and similar companies. I'm seriously considering ditching the landline altogether.

Had a call from a guy, sounded Asian, saying I needed to check some errors on my PC’s event viewer. I let him talk for a bit just to see what he was on about, then ended the call. Guess what? He rang back and got a bit nasty, asking why I was wasting his time and implying I wasn’t clever. I told him he was the one wasting time by calling again and hung up once more. Not long after, he called a third time and it was the same chat all over again. I said I didn’t appreciate cold calls and suspected it was a scam, then hung up. After that, his ‘manager’ phoned me, and I repeated myself. They really don’t know when to quit!

This number just rang me. A guy with an Asian accent said his name was Martin and claimed to be from ITC, telling me my computer had issues. I told him off pretty quickly and he ended up hanging up. Seems he wasn’t gonna waste more time with me!

It’d be great if phone companies had a way to block scam calls just like they do with texts. So annoying getting these dodgy numbers ringing all the time!

Totally a con. I've already let the TPS know about this. If you end up talking to them, try to keep the call going for as long as possible to mess with their schedule.

On 24th Oct 2013 around 12:10, I got a call from an Asian guy who wanted info about my computer or laptop, and also asked who owns it.

I've been getting loads of quiet calls, really persistent ones too. It’s like they don’t even bother speaking. Quite annoying!

Got a call claiming to be from "PC Wizards" about issues with my computer. Turns out it’s a complete scam. Don’t trust them or do anything they ask!

I missed a call earlier and the voicemail caught the beginning of the message, but the caller hung up before saying anything else. When I tried ringing back, the number didn’t seem to exist. How is that possible though, when 1471 showed the number as 01977612209? If this is a scam, why hasn't any of the phone companies like BT done anything to block these calls? It’s frustrating because I’ve been waiting more than six weeks to get my landline fixed after a home move got cancelled!

Another annoying scam from those Asian PC virus folks. Do they ever get tired of trying?

Got a call from some guy with an Asian accent saying my laptop had issues. He said my Windows was linked to a phone number, so that's how he found me in his system. Never heard of that before!

Watch out, this was a huge rip off! A woman from overseas was trying to get access to my computer, probably to install some kind of virus. Then they want you to cough up money to sort it out. Total scam!

Got a call with someone speaking an Asian accent sayin' my computer had problems. Pretty suspicious if ya ask me!

I picked up my phone at about 3.40pm on the 22nd of October 2013, but there was nothing but silence, then the call just dropped.

Got a call that just dropped out straight away and then our phone was dead for about five mins after. Happened round 3pm on the 22nd Oct 2013. Such a pain!
