7 yearsBeware of this trickery - don’t grant them any access to your device!7 yearsI attempted to install McAfee antivirus software, but I encountered a glitch that led me to a phone number along with an error code. I ended up chatting with a gentleman from Asia who remotely accessed my computer. Surprisingly, he knew the activation code for my McAfee. He warned me that my IP address had been breached and insisted that a senior technician would rectify the issue... at the cost of $299 for a year, $398 for five years, or a whopping $599 for a lifetime service. It struck me as rather peculiar, so I decided against sharing any personal information. My computer is currently switched off and awaits a proper reset from someone more knowledgeable than myself. I’m convinced this is a total scam.Asia7 yearsI recently encountered a rather dubious situation where a supposed McAfee internet security representative attempted to gain full control of my laptop under the guise of fixing a problem. Quite alarming, to say the least!McAfee8 yearsI've encountered a comparable situation myself.8 yearsBeware of a fraudulent call purporting to be from Microsoft. Refrain from granting them remote access to your device under any circumstances!MicrosoftRefrain8 yearsI've recently been prompted to give this number a bell regarding a glitch with a Microsoft Word application.Microsoft8 yearsI was attempting to download Microsoft Office 365 when I encountered an error, which led me to this phone number. I ended up chatting with a chap named Daniel Walker, who had quite an Asian accent. He claimed that our network was compromised and warned us that our computers would be facing imminent doom within 48 hours, also mentioning issues with banking access. He then tried to pressure us into paying for some sort of protection and even had our key card number! It all felt rather dodgy, so I decided to disconnect our computers to be on the safe side.MicrosoftDaniel Walker8 yearsI too encountered a troublesome error when attempting to fire up Microsoft Office. A so-called "senior technician" from Microsoft informed me that my IP address was compromised and that I had unwittingly downloaded some sort of trojan virus. In a moment of poor judgment, I granted them access to my computer, only to be warned against using online banking and the like. They even proposed a discounted rate for 'senior citizens' to resolve the issue. Now that I've had a moment to reflect, I can't help but think I should've verified the number beforehand and absolutely shouldn't have let them into my laptop. If only I had known better-hindsight really is a brilliant teacher, isn't it?Microsoft OfficeMicrosoft8 yearsI encountered a similar predicament - thankfully, I decided to pull the plug before they could ask for any cash, but I still made the foolish mistake of granting them access to my computer. What a daft move on my part!8 yearsI found myself in a bit of a pickle when trying to get Microsoft Office up and running, so I ended up contacting what I thought was legitimate tech support. The chap on the other end soon identified a network issue and proposed an SSL fix package, which he then proceeded to install through an agent connection. Now I’m left wondering if I’ve fallen victim to some sort of scam. He provided me with the phone number 02032870180 to follow up on the situation. Should I be worried?Microsoft Office8 yearsI attempted to obtain a new subscription for Microsoft Office, but encountered an error code during the download. Seeking assistance through the online chat, I was instructed to ring this number. A gentleman with a foreign accent represented himself as being from Microsoft and persuaded me to grant him access to my laptop. He warned me that my IP address had been compromised and offered to resolve it for a hefty fee of £300, £500, or even £900 for various plans covering 3, 5, or a lifetime of 'protection'. After discussing this with my son, who is employed at IBM, it became glaringly evident that I had fallen prey to a scam. Thankfully, he guided me through the process of resetting my laptop. Fingers crossed everything is back on track now!Microsoft OfficeMicrosoftIBMSubmit Your Own Report (020 3287 0180)
