Got a call from someone named Harry Wilson claiming to be from Windows Support Centre. He told me there was a problem with my Windows computer. I asked him "which one exactly?" and he just said my Windows computer. I told him I actually have four, then he just hung up on me.

Just like many others who have flagged this number, I've come to the conclusion that it's a total scam. When the bloke claimed to represent the Windows support team, I immediately knew he was pulling a fast one. I told him straight up that he wasn’t affiliated with Microsoft - just a con artist trying his luck. He got all flustered, muttering, “I’m a crook, I’m a crook,” as if the realisation hit him suddenly, before abruptly ending the call. If he’s aware he doesn’t actually work for Windows, then he’s nothing but a liar and a thief.

I swear, it feels like these folks have some sort of sixth sense! They already seem to know I've got a computer and that it’s not quite up to snuff. They’re practically urging me to power it up so they can give me a fix for whatever’s gone awry. But here’s the hitch-I’m a devoted Apple Mac user! They can take a long walk off a short pier!

Try not to be nasty or rude to these callers. A lot of them probably dislike their job, but they really need the money. The real problem is their employers, not the workers themselves. If possible, say something nice about their English and encourage them to look for a better position elsewhere. You might never know, showing a bit of kindness and honesty to someone annoying you could make all the difference in their life.

It's rather disheartening, isn't it, that I have to remain vigilant every time I get a call from someone with an Indian accent? Just moments ago, I picked up the phone to an unfamiliar number, 0203855010, and a woman on the other end claimed to be from Microsoft, reaching out about my computer. Having fallen victim to scammers not too long ago (thankfully, I managed to reach my bank just in time), I've developed zero tolerance for these types of calls. I firmly told her to refrain from calling me again and mentioned the possibility of involving the police - do you think they would be of any assistance? After making my point, I promptly hung up.

There was this bloke with a heavy Indian accent who said "My name is Steve," then went on spouting rubbish about computers. My missus was having none of it and slammed the phone down right on the tosser - probably the same one who called us repeatedly a few days back, claiming our computer was spreading viruses everywhere. Back then, he said his name was "William." I stupidly let him keep me on the line for like 10-15 minutes before I twigged. When will Ofcom or the ICO finally step up and deal with these muppets? Don’t hold your breath, I reckon.

Just like the others who've contacted me, this chap had my name down pat. This time around, it was an Indian gentleman called Christopher, who seemed to be sticking to a script that I couldn't help but interrupt with straightforward queries. I'd ask, "Could you repeat the name of your company?", “When did I actually purchase my laptop?”, and, “That's a bit peculiar, how can I have a Mac facing issues with Windows?” In the end, his patience ran thin, and he told me to 'take a long walk off a short pier' before he ended the call abruptly!

Just like the other times, he already knew my name. This time it was an Indian bloke called Christopher, going through some script. I kept cutting in with simple questions like, “What’s your company called again?”, “When did I supposedly buy this computer?”, “That’s strange, I’ve got a Mac, how can it have Windows issues?” After a while, he just told me to ‘Get lost’ and slammed the phone down on me!

Just like the comment from 13/7/2016, but this time he asked me to open some kind of dialog box. When I questioned him why, he snapped "Shut your f###ing mouth and listern". I told him his phone manner was unusual, then he started shouting about having to put up with this crap and quickly ended the call.

Got a call from a bloke with a strong Indian accent claiming to be from some windows repair service. Said he wanted to talk about my windows computer and asked if I was the main user. I told him I use loads of devices - laptop, tablet, you name it - so he got all confused and just started rambling. Then the line cut off. He called me two times. Total scammer. Really hope my folks don't get caught out by this one.

Received a call from someone who insisted that there was an issue with my Windows PC. They had my full name, address, and postcode, which was rather unsettling. They also rattled off a lengthy serial number that I haven't verified yet. Decided to waste a bit of their time, so I just played along until I finally ended the call. They tried to ring me again, but I chose to ignore it.

I let him babble on a bit, went to make a cuppa, then after five minutes or so, I told him cheers for the call but I just got the laptop yesterday and was returning it to the shop. He sounded really rattled and then just hung up.

I received a rather dubious phone call from a so-called IT support firm, insisting that my computer was experiencing problems. They claimed to represent Microsoft and later linked themselves to BT. The chap provided me with the number 08001114567, which he claimed was for BT's Helpdesk, suggesting I ring him back. He identified himself as Harry Wilson, and interestingly, mentioned an address of 100 Victoria Street, London SW1E 5JL. Quite a suspicious encounter, wouldn't you agree?

Got a call today from a bloke claiming to be from Windows support. He said my dad was the registered Windows user, which is nonsense - my dad never even touched a computer, had dementia, and has now passed away. When I told the guy this, he just kept going through some script like a robot. Dont share any details with them, it’s a total scam, they just wanna trick you out of your cash.
