8 yearsI got a call on my landline from someone saying they were from “Microsoft” and claimed my PC was spreading viruses. I told him straight up he was a scammer and hung up. Then he rang back, threatening to lock my computer to prove he wasn’t faking it. I told him to go ahead, and after a lot more threats, he ended up insulting me and telling me to do one. I’m pretty good with tech, so it didn’t scare me, but I worry about whoever they might try next. I managed to record a part of the call where he’s swearing at me, so I’m planning to report this to the cops.Microsoft8 yearsJust got a call about 10 minutes ago, and the person was really aggressive. Sounds like others have had the same kind of experience.8 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from Microsoft, super eager to "sort out" some virus problems on my computer. After I told her to stop and ended the call, she was oddly concerned and called me back twice, asking why I refused her help. Then she said she'd keep calling every five minutes if I didn't listen. That was like 15 minutes ago, so maybe now she’s bugging someone else.Microsoft8 yearsThey were acting like they worked for Microsoft, but it’s a total scam to trick you into letting them into your computer and steal all your personal info. Stay well clear!Microsoft8 yearssome bloke rang me claiming to be from microsoft, but i just hung up straight away.Microsoft8 yearsOver the course of two hours, I got like five calls, then another bunch of three calls later on. When I finally picked up, the bloke kept saying he was from Microsoft. Claimed my computer was hacked and tried to get me to accept his help. I said no, and then he started threatening to put me on some blacklist. Proper dodgy!Microsoft8 yearsI got a call from them just now, definitely a scam. Best not to pick up.8 yearsThis number's no good, it’s showing up as not in service, so it’s gotta be some kinda scam. Just a heads up to everyone - best to stay clear and not answer it.8 yearsBeware, it's one of those scams where they try to get into your computer and steal your banking info and personal stuff.8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from Microsoft, saying my email got hacked and they had a tech ready to fix it. I joked that they'd better send the guy round my house if they wanted to help, but instead he said the fraud squad would show up. I asked him when they'd be coming and how many to expect, and if they fancied some biscuits with their tea. Oddly enough, he just hung up after that.Microsoft8 yearsThey rang but didn’t bother dropping a message on my voicemail, so I’m guessing it wasn’t anything urgent!8 yearsYet again, got a call from someone who didn’t say a word.Submit Your Own Report (01983 249831)
