I reckon this could be a fresh con job. I received a call from this number earlier today, and the person on the other end claimed to be with EON!

Just like others have mentioned, I received a call claiming there was an issue with my computer and they requested that I power it up. Before I knew it, I was allegedly connected to the tech support team (most likely the same chap just changing his accent). They wanted me to press specific keys on my keyboard, but when I mentioned I was using an iPad, they promptly cut the call, how amusing! It’s clear their only intention is to gain access to your IP address and login credentials, then peddle a virus or dodgy software they’ll later demand payment to "repair." Or worse still, they might try to extract sensitive information from you!

I had a rather dodgy phone call earlier from a woman with an Indian accent purporting to be from Microsoft, insisting that there was an issue with my computer. She tried her hardest to convince me that it was all above board. I casually mentioned that I was aware of a few hiccups with my PC but didn't require any assistance, as a family member of mine is quite adept at troubleshooting these matters. I kindly bid her farewell and hung up. Almost immediately, my phone rang again-well, I wasn't having any of it, so I simply repeated, "I’m not interested," and disconnected once more.

Earlier today, I received a rather peculiar phone call from a chap with an Asian accent. He claimed there were issues with my Windows system. I promptly informed him that my computer was functioning perfectly and was actually switched off at that moment. He then requested if I could power it up, to which I replied I was currently occupied. He asked if he could ring me back, and I agreed, wanting to investigate the number further for my own peace of mind. He’s meant to give me a ring again tomorrow evening, so I'll be keeping an ear out for that call.

Received yet another flurry of calls from this number today. They really ought to be more cautious, as I happen to work in IT. I've gone ahead and reported it to the relevant authorities.

I've been receiving calls from this number, and each time, it's someone insisting that my computer requires urgent repairs. They keep warning me that if I don't comply with their instructions, my computer will be out of action for good. It's quite bothersome!

Mention that you've got a Mac, and before you know it, they ring you up a couple of days later claiming there's an issue with it! Quite astounding, really!

It seems they've not given up... I had a chat with an Asian woman calling from 02031824568, and when I posed the question, “Do you ever consider the ethics of making calls like this?” she simply hung up.

On Friday, the 18th of July, I received my second call of the day regarding supposed issues with my computer. I promptly informed them it was a scam and hung up the phone.

I received a rather curious phone call from an individual purporting to be from Microsoft, claiming there was a pressing issue with my computer. I decided to play along, acting utterly flabbergasted and in desperate need of assistance; I was all in for a bit of fun! Quite predictably, after a brief few moments of this charade, his patience wore thin, and he lost his cool, instructing me rather rudely to "go f*** yourself." I couldn’t resist returning the sentiment before he abruptly hung up. Quite the entertaining encounter, I must say!

Just like so many others, I'm afraid! You wouldn't believe the outrageous things this chap claimed he intended for my sister! It's quite alarming, really, to think about how many innocent folks fall prey to these types.

Rang me just after half past ten this morning. A gentleman with a strong Asian accent purporting to be from a rather suspiciously named global web service was on the line. He asserted there was some sort of error on my computer that I was allegedly using 'right this second'. I couldn’t help but comment on how he managed to keep up such an exhausting façade day in and day out, suggesting that it must wear him out. Unsurprisingly, he cut the call short pretty quickly. I often think it’d be amusing to lead these callers on just to fritter away their time, but I simply didn’t have a moment to spare today.

Simply mention that you're using an Apple Mac, and they tend to not ring back.

I received a rather dodgy call from some fella claiming to be from Microsoft, who insisted I had an issue that needed addressing. He mentioned something about voting to resolve it, which I found utterly baffling. I firmly told him it wasn’t true and promptly hung up. To top it off, my laptop is currently out for repairs, so there’s really nothing to discuss!

Exactly as mentioned before. The wisest course of action is to keep them guessing. Just make sure you're ready for some quite harsh language in return. It's undeniably a scam!

I've received a trio of calls from this number today-well, three thus far, and it’s barely past tea time! Each time, I've been on the receiving end of a heavily accented voice, likely Indian, attempting to gain access to my computer. They all seemed to cut off eventually, with the last one ending rather promptly once I chuckled at him referring to himself as ‘Paul Thompson’ and asked for his actual name. It’s astonishing how many complaints there are about this number on similar platforms, with some unfortunate souls claiming to have lost money. Is there truly nothing that telecom companies or the authorities can do to address this issue? I’m seriously toying with the idea of purchasing a deafening whistle to have at the ready for their next attempt!

As soon as I picked up, it was evident I was dealing with a con. An Indian-sounding woman on a dodgy line, delivering her spiel in that typical blunt manner!

Having a solid background in PC support for a sizeable firm, I'm well-versed in the ins and outs of computers. Out of sheer curiosity, I decided to humour one of those blatant scam phone calls just to uncover their tactics and approach-though I made it a point not to follow any of their directives (very important, mind you!). *Whatever you do, steer clear of downloading any software when prompted by an unsolicited caller. *Be sure to check the advisory notices from Microsoft regarding support scams, as well as those found on the ammyy.com website about how their legitimate remote access tool is often misused by these fraudsters. These con artists will leverage any remote access software to harvest information from your device, aiming to either rope you into a subscription-based maintenance scheme (and in the process, snatch your credit card info) or potentially wreak havoc on your computer or laptop-particularly if you choose to opt out of their services. Their game plan is to either fabricate issues, blow problems way out of proportion, or even create chaos themselves, all to extort money for a dubious clean-up service that’s practically worthless, whether charged monthly or annually. CONSIDER THIS A WARNING. SPREAD THE WORD. I casually asked a few of my colleagues, and astonishingly, it seems that nearly everyone has been plagued by at least one, if not several, of these calls that are seemingly orchestrated from large call centres based in India.

I received a call from someone purporting to be from MICROSOFT. When I asked him to specify which Windows version I was using, he abruptly hung up. However, he's been quite insistent in following up, and honestly, he seems a bit sketchy.

Seemed rather dodgy to me - claimed he could resolve an issue with Microsoft. I asked him to give me a ring again in an hour so I could look up the number on Google. It’s obviously a scam.

Received an unsolicited call from the number mentioned above today; they claimed to want to have a chat regarding my Windows PC. I’m signed up with the Telephone Preference Service, so I requested that they remove my details from their records. The caller was rather hard to comprehend; they might have been from India.

The other day, I received a phone call out of the blue.
