Reports on phone number 01977707233
13 yearsGot a call from this 1846 number earlier, some bloke with a heavy Asian accent was asking if I was the primary computer user in the house. I pretended not to understand and he just put the phone down. I've had this phone number for over two decades now. What really puzzles me is how on earth this guy knew both my name and my number. 01977707233.13 yearsGot another call today from someone with a thick Indian accent claiming my computer has a problem - classic scam stuff. The annoying thing is, I’m getting around three calls like this every day, but always from different numbers. Some show up as ‘unavailable’ and others come through as international. I’ve only had this phone number for about five months, it’s unlisted, and I’m careful about who I give it to. My only guess is that maybe some ‘trusted’ company that legitimately needed my number has handed it over. I’ve now got my answerphone on all the time and check every caller before picking up. So frustrating!13 yearsThere was a brief pause, then a guy with an Indian accent asked if I was [my name] and how I was doing. I asked who was on the line, and he replied, "Abi from The Tech Helpline." I cut the call straight away, knowing exactly what was about to happen. Next time, I reckon I'll ask if he's interested in buying a stake in a guaranteed winning investment instead!AbiThe Tech Helpline13 yearsGot a ring from this number today - some "James Wilson" they said - not buying it! The bloke had a thick Indian accent. I just let him jabber on for a bit and then told him to buzz off and do something useful. They’re quite something, right? Even when you cut them off and call it out as a scam, they barely skip a beat. And why is it they always pick the worst times to call? Like right in the middle of dinner prep, feeding the pooches, or on a Sunday arvo - proper annoying that is!James Wilson13 yearsGot a call from them earlier today. Not a word spoken, just silence, so definitely sounds like an autodialler they’re using. When I ring back, it just says the number can’t be reached straight away. Sort of a new spin on the usual 'International Call' scams, and judging by what others have said before, it’s probably not legit.13 yearsCor blimey, they've been ringing loads. I got a call earlier and decided to give the number a ring back out of curiosity, but it went straight to "number not in service"! Usually, if I accidentally pick up one of these calls, I just let them chatter away while I put the phone on speaker and go make myself a brew. They seem to twig pretty quickly and hang up :) Sometimes, me and the kids sing Christmas carols (terribly) at full volume even when it’s boiling outside. That seems to do the trick as well!13 yearsToday I got a call where the person stayed silent for a whole 30 seconds, just didn’t say a thing before suddenly hanging up on me...13 yearsThis number rang me earlier today, and I kept it on the line until the person introduced themselves as calling from Microsoft. They claimed my computer was infected with a virus and offered to fix it immediately if I switched it on and followed their steps. I played along for a bit but then told them straight up that I was aware it was a scam and that my phone was being watched, then ended the call. They phoned back right away, asking why I was upset and insisting they were genuine Microsoft reps, before ending the call with a "have a nice day." The voice sounded like it was from the Indian subcontinent.Microsoft13 yearsI got a phone call from someone claiming to be from an Indian call centre, using this number. It was one of those typical "Your PC is infected" scam calls. I decided to keep the caller on the line for about 15 minutes while he tried to guide me through opening the Windows run box in different ways. I’m not sure what he planned next, but he eventually gave up and hung up when nothing showed up on my screen as he expected. Probably because I use Linux, not Windows, which must have thrown him off. I had some spare time and figured I’d waste his by keeping him tied up instead of targeting someone less tech-savvy. Not a big win or anything, and I wish I could have seen his frustrated reaction, but oh well!13 yearsThey said my computer was infected with a virus! Seriously? It’s sick how many folks fall for these tricks. Stay clear of these scammers!13 yearsGot a call from some bloke with an Indian accent claiming my computer was full of "junk files" or something daft like that. Total rubbish!13 yearstotal ripoff! watch out and dont get tricked13 yearsI got a call where there was complete silence on the other end for about 20 seconds, so I just ended the call.13 yearsNo sound whatsoever.13 yearsWhat a swindle this has turned out to be!Submit Your Own Report (01977 707233)
