13 yearsClaimed to be from Microsoft, this number's definitely a scam. Be careful!Microsoft13 yearsLast week, I got a call from a woman who sounded Indian, going by the name Erica. Like the others mentioned here, she was really forceful and kept pushing me even after I said no. My gut told me something was dodgy. Right at the start, she said she was from Microsoft Windows and that my computer was full of viruses and risky files.IndiaEricaMicrosoft13 yearsJust got a call from these lot at 8 pm tonight. They claimed to be from Microsoft security saying there’s some kind of scam happening on my laptop or something. Wanted me to give them remote access. I told them I’d ring Microsoft myself to check and sorted, then they just hung up on me.Microsoft13 yearsSo, today 08/11/2013, some bloke phoned me up saying my computer had all sorts of bugs and tried to guide me through some fixes. He sounded sketchy from the start and kept telling me to Google ‘Azure’ to check he was legit. He was way too pushy about sorting it out straight away, which made me even more suspicious and more likely to say no. Really glad I didn't fall for it in the end.Azure13 yearsI got a call from someone claiming they were from Microsoft, telling me there was a virus on my PC and I should switch it on right away. They went into loads of detail about what could go wrong if I didn’t do something. I asked for a number to call back, and they gave me this one. When I rang, a bloke answered and said he was from a computer repair company. When I pushed him to tell me the name, he mentioned something like "Adgeo", but before I could double-check, the line just cut off. This happened on 22/07/2013 around 1:50 pm.MicrosoftAdgeo13 yearsThis person called me saying my computer was infected every time I opened my browser and claimed they could fix it with some quick steps. I asked for their phone number and mentioned I already use antivirus software. Later, I phoned that number back, hoping it wasn’t some expensive line, but when I got through, all I heard was someone saying 'IT department' and then nothing more.13 yearsJust yesterday, I got caught out and ended up paying for a software warranty update and a computer scan, but it was charged to my father-in-law’s bank account. I’m planning to contact his bank and report the whole thing now. Really annoying to be tricked like that.13 yearsThis morning, I got a call from this number, and the bloke said his name was Richard Maranda. He told me the same old tale everyone else seems to get. I told him to send me the details, and I'd handle it when I had time. But he just wouldn’t drop it, kept pushing me to sort it out immediately. I asked him for his contact info so I could ring him back later. He’s still hanging on the line somewhere, I bet. It’s not the first time I’ve had this sort of call, and I’m sure it won’t be the last either.Richard Maranda13 yearsI got a call from this number on the 6th of July. The guy called himself Dustin Hoffman (can you believe it?) kept telling me there was something wrong with my Event Log. According to him, it was urgent and he just HAD to sort it out since lots of people apparently struggle with their event logs. Sure, mate. Also found out they don’t work on Sundays - guess it’s their day off for golf. Fingers crossed Dustin beats Wayne in the match next Sunday!Dustin HoffmanEvent LogWayne13 yearsJust like others mentioned, this bloke called himself Wain Gardener and claimed he was from New Jersey in the States! He said he worked for Microsoft in their Global Computer Maintenance Department. Yeah, right!Wain GardenerNew JerseyUSAGlobal Computer Maintenance DepartmentMicrosoft13 yearsTonight, I got a call from those exact people again. I told them that if they’re aware my PC has a virus, they must be watching me, which is illegal. I warned them I’d report it, and then they just ended the call.13 yearsComplete rip-off. The guy had a really thick accent, barely made out what he was saying. Told me he was from some "Azure tech support" team linked to Microsoft and Vista, calling all the way from New Jersey in the States. He started going on about viruses on my PC and asked me to switch it on and follow his steps. Don’t fall for it! He’s just trying to sneak into your info and could easily swipe your banking details.AzureVistaMicrosoftNew JerseyStates13 yearsThis number rang me too, but what they said didn’t line up with what the website showed. They kept hassling me, telling me to switch on my computer cos it was supposedly downloading some harmful file. Is this for real or just a scam?13 yearsGot a call from this number and some bloke claimed he was from global communications, saying my computer was full of viruses and dodgy downloads. Don’t fall for it - it’s definitely a scam. If there was a proper issue, your actual provider would get in touch, not some random guy. Watch out for these dodgy calls!Global Communications13 yearsJust a heads up, this number calls and tries to get you to open some files on your computer. After that, they say your laptop or PC has a virus and ask to access it remotely. They say they’re from a firm called Azure Computers Ltd, but that company is actually located in Surrey and isn’t connected to any of this. So, please be careful and don’t let them take control of your device.Azure Computers LtdSurreyUKSubmit Your Own Report (020 3289 8960)
