7 yearsDont ever let someone on the phone get control of your computer, its a total scam!7 yearsWas trying to get McAfee antivirus installed but ran into an error code, which then pointed me to a contact number. A guy with an accent answered and somehow managed to remote into my laptop. He even guessed the activation code for my McAfee subscription, which freaked me out. He claimed my IP was hacked and said a senior tech would sort it out for me. Then he started pushing prices - £299 for a year, £398 for five years, or £599 for lifetime coverage. It all felt really fishy, so I didn’t share any personal info. Now my laptop’s completely frozen and won’t start until someone who actually knows what they’re doing can fix it. Total scam, be careful!Asia8 yearsSome bloke pretending to be from McAfee internet security called me, saying there was a problem on my laptop and they needed to take control to fix it. Seemed like a total scam to me!McAfee8 yearsI went through pretty much the same thing.8 yearsJust a heads up, these people say they're from Microsoft but they're actually a scam. Never ever let them take control of your computer remotely!MicrosoftRefrain8 yearsI got a call saying I needed to contact this number about some problem with a Microsoft Word product.Microsoft8 yearsWas trying to install Microsoft Office 365 but got some error message along with this phone number. I called and a guy named Daniel Walker answered - sounded Asian - and said our network was damaged, claiming our PCs would fail in two days and hackers could get into our bank accounts. He asked for payment to fix it, and even mentioned a key card number. Felt fishy, so I just cut the call and shut down the computers.MicrosoftDaniel Walker8 yearsI got a warning message when I tried opening Microsoft Office, then some bloke claiming to be a senior Microsoft tech told me my IP was messed up and I’d got a trojan virus. I actually gave him access to my laptop and was advised not to do online banking or anything like that. He even mentioned some elderly discount to fix the issue at half price. Looking back now, I realise I should’ve looked up the number first and definitely kept him off my computer. Hindsight really is a pain (lesson learned, dummy here).Microsoft OfficeMicrosoft8 yearsI had a similar problem - didn’t even get to the point of them asking for payment before I cut things off, but I let them get into my computer first - honestly, I feel so daft now!!!9 yearsI had trouble opening Office and got connected to someone claiming to be from Microsoft tech support. They said there was a problem with my network and pushed me to buy some SSL repair package which they installed remotely through a remote connection. This all feels a bit dodgy, was it a scam? They told me to call 02032870180 if I wanted an update on the "fix."Microsoft Office9 yearsI was attempting to install a fresh Microsoft Office subscription but ran into an error code. The live chat agent suggested I call a number they provided. A bloke with a heavy accent convinced me to let him access my laptop, saying he was from Microsoft. He claimed my IP had been compromised and offered protection plans costing $300, $500, or $900 for 3 years, 5 years, or lifelong coverage. After chatting with my son, who works at IBM, he confirmed it was a scam. Luckily, he helped me wipe the laptop clean. Hopefully, that’s the end of it now!Microsoft OfficeMicrosoftIBMSubmit Your Own Report (020 3287 0180)
