Reports on phone number 02038877117
7 yearsI had a bit of trouble getting my new Norton going, so I reached out via their online chat. Soon after, someone rang me claiming to be from Norton and said there were loads of problems with my PC, then asked for £149 to fix it and upgrade my protection. I was a bit iffy about it and questioned him, and then he just cut the call. When I phoned Norton afterwards, they told me the call didn’t come from their security support at all.Norton8 yearsAfter buying a McAfee product from Currys, I ran into issues activating it and was told to ring this number. The guy from MSINFOSYS asked to remotely access my laptop and even wanted my laptop password, which I wasn’t comfortable giving. He kept insisting a few times but I said no, then he just ended the call. Thankfully, I wasn’t charged anything, though he mentioned it would cost me £99 to fix. Tried getting through to McAfee myself but been stuck on hold for like 20 minutes now.CurrysMSINFOSYSMcAfee8 yearsI reckon this could be a scam, as I've been having trouble installing Microsoft Office on my new laptop. I received a message advising me to ring this number, which appears to be linked to 02081231772.Microsoft Office8 yearsI had a really bad run-in after buying Norton from PC World. They pretty much hijacked my PC and slapped me with a £249 bill for a year’s subscription without much warning. After that, I got in touch with Norton myself and got rid of all the stuff those guys had put on my computer. Mastercard wasn’t much use, so I went straight to the company to raise a complaint. Thankfully, they did give me my money back. It’s mad that this sort of thing still goes on - why isn’t anyone cracking down on these scams?NortonPCWorld8 yearsSome bloke called Ash rang me, said he was with Norton but we’re not. He started throwing out prices and I just ended up hanging up on him in the end.AshNorton8 yearsSome bloke said his name was Ash and started talking about being happy with the service. Turns out we’re not even with Norton. He began rattling off prices, and I just hung up on him.AshNorton8 yearsThey pretended to be from Norton antivirus support and insisted there were security problems with my laptop. It’s a blatant con!Norton8 yearsWhile setting up Norton antivirus, I ended up being sent to these folks and forked out £299.00 to them. I'm planning to report this to Action Fraud, which I understand works alongside Trading Standards.NortonAction Fraud9 yearsLast week I ran into trouble getting my McAfee activation key sorted, which I bought from PC World. A contact number popped up on my screen for assistance, so I called it. The person on the line, an Indian bloke named 'James Matthew', told me my laptop was infected with a 'Trojan virus' - that’s why the antivirus wouldn’t install. He convinced me to pay £99 for the fix. Complete rip-off! McAfee themselves never charge for tech help, I swear. The company he mentioned was called MSINFOSYS, apparently in Sidcup. Stay well clear of these scammers!!PC WorldJames MatthewIndiaNEVERMSINFOSYSSidcup9 yearsThey took control of my computer, locked it up and then demanded money. Honestly, don’t even think about dealing with them - it’s a huge scam! Stay well clear!9 yearsTotal rip off! They lock your computer and then demand cash to unlock it.

I became quite wary when they asked for remote access to my computer.9 yearsI got this number pop up when I was setting up McAfee with an Argos card. They said they could sort stuff out by remotely accessing my laptop, claimed my IP got nicked and used for some dodgy site in Denmark. Offered me a few fix-it plans starting at £100. They then locked me out of my own laptop. Definitely don't ring them.McAfeeArgosDenmark9 yearsStay clear of this one, it’s definitely a rip-off!9 yearsDefinitely a scam call! I was trying to fix an issue with installing Microsoft Office 365 when they gave me this phone number. They wanted to access my computer remotely. But when I told them to "halt their assistance," they ended up locking me out of my own PC. Really dodgy experience.Microsoft9 yearsBeware, this phone number is definitely a scam. I got an error while trying to set up Microsoft Office 365, and then they told me to call this number. They asked to access my computer remotely. I started feeling suspicious and told them to stop helping me, but instead, they ended up locking me out of my own computer. Stay clear!Microsoft9 yearsBeware of this dodgy phone number claiming to be from Norton or McAfee! They’ll try to access your computer remotely, insisting that your system is infected with viruses, and will demand payment to fix the so-called issues. It's crucial that you don't permit them to take control of your PC, and absolutely avoid sharing any credit card information. They are nothing but fraudsters who will rip you off and potentially lock you out of your own device! Stay vigilant!NortonMcAfee9 yearsBeware, this is a total SCAM claiming to be McAffee-level 7 Anti-Hacking IP software. They're just after your credit card details. Don’t fall for it, stay well clear!!!McAfee9 yearsGot a scam call on this number after I tried to activate my McAfee product from Argos. The website on the McAfee box was something like mcafee[###]/activate, but I couldn’t access it from my other computer that’s protected, so I reckon it’s a sketchy site.Argos9 yearsThis was a proper scam, bought McAfee Total from Argos and when I tried entering the 25 digit code, it kept giving me an error and told me to call their help number. When I called, they took control of my PC remotely - total rip off. The computer got locked, I told McAfee who weren’t bothered at all. Argos said they’d investigate it. The website on the activation card was dodgy too, looked nothing like the official McAfee site, something like mcafee[###]/activate.McAfee TotalArgosMcAfee9 yearsDefinitely a scam, don’t even think about calling them back or letting them get into your computer remotely. They’re just trying to take your cash and will probably lock you out of your system. I checked with McAfee and they confirmed they know about it and are looking into it. The bloke on the phone sounded Asian but said his name was Richard Gibbs. Avoid at all costs!McAfeeRichard Gibbs9 yearsI'm pretty sure this number is a scam claiming to be from Norton support. When I was struggling to set up Norton Utilities, someone gave me this number and said my computer had serious security problems. Then they passed me along to an "engineer" who promised to sort it out and offer a year's support for £199.Norton9 yearsThey claim to be official support for big names like AVG, Norton, and Yahoo. What they do is try to trick you into letting them in your computer, then bombard you with scary threats about your system being on the brink of disaster. All this pressure is just a ploy to get you to pay a large sum immediately.AVGYahooNorton9 yearsIts really worrying that so many ppl have been tricked by the same scam, and Norton just acts like it’s no big deal at all.Norton9 yearsi’ve just been caught out by a scam too and now i can’t get into my laptop. currys are saying they’ll reset it to factory defaults for £60 and if i want the data back it’ll be another £90 on top. does anyone know if there’s another way round this? really stuck here.Curry9 yearsI got this number after having problems setting up my anti-virus, but turns out it was a total scam. They told me to install some remote access software called Supremocontrol, claiming to fix my PC. Eventually, the bloke took control of my computer remotely and said I had viruses everywhere. Then suddenly he wanted £199 for a one-time fix, £299 or even £499 for some lifetime assistance! To top it off, before ending the call, he completely locked me out of my own machine.
