Reports on phone number 02031291406
10 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Indian accent who kept saying his name was Gary Watson and he was phoning from Windows. Typical scam stuff about my computer having a virus. I guessed right away it was dodgy, so I played along for a bit, then said, "Wow, when did Apple start running Windows?" That seemed to confuse him and the call ended quickly after that!Gary WatsonApple10 yearsGot a call from someone called James, said he was from Windows Corp. He claimed loads of apps on my laptop weren’t functioning right (definitely not true!). He said he would sort it out for me, which I found a bit funny to be honest. Turns out, this is a scam - I read online that a few folks fell for it and ended up with their laptops locked down. Avoid it!JamesWindows Corp10 yearsI ended up just letting them ramble on for about ten minutes while I went through loads of the reports here aloud. Hilarious stuff! Definitely a scam though!10 yearsJust had some dodgy call from someone wanting to get into my computer - total scam alert!10 yearsI got a call from 02031291406 about some issue with my computer's Windows. They told me to enter some letters into the search bar. I got a bit suspicious and paused. Then I looked up your site to check. Apparently, the guy tried ringing me back but I decided not to pick up. Definitely a scam.10 yearsToday, on 1/09/2016, I got a call from someone named Jack claiming to be from Microsoft Windows tech support. He was pretty eager to assist me and asked me to have a pen and paper ready to help protect me from hackers when I use the internet. After a bit, I told him to leave me alone and that I'd look up the number myself. This was actually the second time this week he'd called, and he was quite pushy about it.JackMicrosoft10 yearsOn 19th August 2016, I got a call from a bloke named James claiming to be from Windows Help and Support, using the number 02031291406. He said my computer was creating issues at Microsoft and wanted me to let him in to fix the problems. He even gave me a supposed Windows security ID, but I knew it was rubbish. I told him I was tied up at the moment and asked him to ring me back in a couple of hours. That gave me some time to look up the number, and sure enough, it turned out to be connected to a scam.JamesMicrosoft10 yearsI received a call from some blokes claiming my laptop was compromised, insisting they needed to remotely access it. I allowed them in, and they made quite a fuss about a WiFi issue, claiming it was infested with something nasty from '96 in both India and China. After they finished their so-called work, I powered it down only to find I couldn't connect to the internet the next day. When I expressed this concern, they acted as if I was lying and demanded around £200 for internet security. I was taken aback and explained I simply couldn't manage that expense. After a chat with his supervisor, they came back with a lowered offer of £91. They insisted further work was imperative; otherwise, my Windows licence would lapse that night. They bombarded me with calls for the payment afterwards. Just this Tuesday, I mentioned taking my laptop back to the shop where I bought it for a proper fix. They insisted they couldn't assist and claimed they'd have to send it off for a hard drive replacement, along with a full reset. When they called again, I told them the laptop was already on its way to being repaired. This seemed to baffle them; they asked if I had another laptop handy. I said no, and he abruptly hung up. Quite the encounter, I must say!IndiaChina10 yearsGot a bunch of calls from people with Asian accents and really old English-sounding names, saying they’re from Windows or Microsoft. They want to get into my PC, but as soon as I say I’m aware it’s a scam, they just drop the line.MicrosoftWindows10 yearsThis guy is super stubborn, he’s already called me three times today and promised to call again tomorrow. He clearly isn’t ready to quit, but neither am I. I don’t want or need his so-called help anyway.10 yearsSame here, just got a call from David spouting the exact same nonsense. Obviously a scam. I told Action Fraud about it but I’m not sure if they’ll actually do anything to put a stop to this.DavidAction Fraud10 yearsSome guy named Peter rang me, said he was from the Windows Help Desk and told me my PC was infected with a virus, asked me to turn it on. I told him to give me his number, 0203 1291406, so I could verify if he was legit. Turns out, this is definitely a FRAUD!Peter10 yearsGot a call from this number earlier, cheers to everyone sharing their experiences here! I've gone ahead and blocked it.10 yearsScammed by someone pretending to be Microsoft tech support! Thankfully, I managed to block the number before anything else happened.Microsoft10 yearsThis is a tech firm that specialises in computer repairs.11 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Microsoft’s tech support... total scam, beware!Microsoft11 yearsSpoke to some bloke called Chad who said he was from Microsoft Tech Support, but honestly, they're just dodgy scammers. If you wanna see them get trolled, check out Hoax Hotel on YouTube - they take these scammers down good.ChadMicrosoft Tech SupportHoax Hotel11 yearsGot a call from some bloke named Jordan claiming to be from Windows. Said my IP was under attack or something dodgy like that. Total scam, don’t trust it! Just blocked the number straight away.Jordan11 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from Windows, wanted to mess about with my computer settings. Told them I'd call back later as I was busy, which they didn't seem to like one bit. Of course, I wasn't planning to call them again. They even gave me their number so I could warn others it was a scam, so that bit was actually pretty helpful.11 yearsThis number 02031291406 has been ringing me over 25 times now, and honestly, I’m getting a bit fed up with it.11 yearsI keep getting calls from the number 0203 459 2077, with the caller claiming to be from Microsoft. I usually just tell them I don’t use a Windows device and that I’m aware it’s a scam before putting the phone down. Unfortunately, I know someone who actually got caught out and ended up ruining their computer so badly that they had to ditch it and buy a completely different brand. Classic Windows tech support scam!Microsoft12 yearsThis number called me earlier and kept banging on about some virus on my computer. They said my firewall and security wouldn't protect me. I humoured him for a bit, just for laughs. I even asked if it was a charity since the call was 'free' - who pays your wages then? Eventually, he just gave up. Definitely a scam, as real companies don’t phone like this at all.12 yearsGot a call from this number warning me that my computer had some serious issues and would completely crash if left unfixed. Over the last couple of years, I’ve had multiple calls from them with the same scare tactics. Last time I didn't hang up right away and ended up letting them ‘access’ my computer - they claimed to be cleaning it but I reckon it was all fake and nothing to do with my actual system. Then they tried to get me to pay £119 for a supposed ‘2 year protection’ against future hacks, nearly got me until my bank froze the payment. When I checked with my bank, turns out the money was heading to an optician’s shop in Panama! The woman on the call said she was from Microsoft Windows support, they even sent me a website that supposedly verified the number - but when I called back, all I got was some background noise and then the line went dead. Total scam.Panama12 yearsGot a call where they wanted to access my computer remotely, sounded dodgy to me.12 yearsReceived an early morning call at 7:20am from a chap sporting an American accent who struggled to get my distinctly British surname right. He claimed he was calling from near Victoria station, yet couldn't give me a clue about the local weather! After some back and forth, he mentioned he was actually based in Singapore. He insisted there was an issue with my computer and Windows. I replied that I was perfectly happy with my double glazing (can you believe it?!), and I requested to speak to his supervisor. Unsurprisingly, the line went silent after that. Even with my registration with the Telephone Preference Service, these sorts of calls keep coming through, likely because they originate from abroad - 00 989 893 1748, if you're curious! Clearly a SCAM; don’t fall for it. Microsoft never makes unsolicited calls to its customers!VictoriaSingaporeTelephone Preference ServiceMicrosoft12 yearsI have a strong suspicion that this was a scam operation trying to extract our computer information.Submit Your Own Report (020 3129 1406)
