Phone number ☎️ 02045871207 👆 is reported as a widespread and well-documented scam targeting computer users with alarming fake warnings claiming device compromise. The scam typically locks the screen, urging victims to call a designated number where callers pose as Microsoft or Apple support agents, often with convincing scripts and accents. They attempt to gain remote access or sell unnecessary software or services, sometimes requesting payment. Experts and victims advise not to call the number or provide any information. Instead, users should terminate the affected browser or application via Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt+Delete) or simply reboot their device. Authorities recommend reporting incidents to Action Fraud or the police. Ignoring the calls and not downloading anything from unknown sources is strongly advised to avoid potential fraud or malware.

3 yearsI've encountered this dodgy scheme on my computer.3 yearsI got really worried and dialled the number they gave, but then something felt off so I hung up. Later I learnt it was just a scam, so I rebooted my PC to be safe. After about an hour, a call came through from 0808 169 6673. They said they were from Microsoft, checking up on the previous call. I told them the issue was fixed and ended the chat. They’ve got my phone number now, but fingers crossed they understand I’m not falling for it.Microsoft3 yearsHad a dodgy scam that froze my browser, but luckily I managed to escape it by hitting ctrl-alt-del on my keyboard. Proper annoying trick though.3 yearsI encountered a rather alarming situation earlier when my computer screen suddenly became locked by an alarming message that pretended to be from Microsoft, insisting I call a number for assistance from a so-called engineer. Feeling quite dubious about the whole thing, I decided to simply power down my laptop and restart it. To my relief, everything returned to normal without any hassle.Microsoft3 yearsphone number 02045871207 is a total scam, dont call the support number they give you. if your device is frozen, you can just open task manager by pressing CTRL+ALT+Delete and close msn to fix it. dont fall for their tricks!MSN3 yearsTotal scam, dont bother calling back. If your phone is frozen just open Task Manager and shut down MSN - that should sort it.MSN3 yearsMy computer got locked after I received a call from 02045871207. I’m now trying to get in touch with Microsoft to sort it out.Microsoft3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they're from Microsoft support. They sounded quite chilled and like they wanted to help. Funny thing is, they said they were based in San Jose!!MicrosoftSan Jose3 yearsDefinitely a scam, I wouldn’t pick up. If you do, they’ll just have your number and bother you more.3 yearsJust wanted to warn everyone - 02045871207 is one of those Microsoft scam calls. Be careful!Microsoft3 yearsI got that exact scam call too, as soon as they started talking about money I just knew something was off and quickly ended the call!3 yearsEncountered a message on my computer screen that made it freeze and urged me to ring the number provided. Definitely a scam!3 yearsI clicked on a news image that popped up on my screen and suddenly got a warning message with a loud alarm and a voice telling me my computer was hacked and not to turn it off. It told me to ring a number straight away. I called, and a person took control of my computer, showing different screens and saying the problem was serious. Then they said they'd install some software to protect my computer forever, but it would cost me about £239. I refused to pay, and they just cut the call right away.3 yearsI tapped on a news image on my screen and suddenly a loud alarm went off with a warning telling me my PC was hacked and not to turn it off, plus a number to call. I rang the number and someone took control of my computer, flashing different windows saying the problem was really serious. They then offered to install some software that would supposedly protect my PC forever, asking for £239, which I saw appear on the screen. I told them straight away I wasn’t paying a penny and they just disconnected right away.3 yearsLike some others here, my laptop just locked up on me and I wasn’t able to close the screen. It was a bit stressful since I had important spreadsheets running. I looked up the phone number online and then decided to turn my laptop off completely. After turning it back on a couple of minutes later, everything seems fine now - it’s been about a day since it happened. Not sure how I ended up on that dodgy webpage when I was just scrolling through MSN news.MSN3 yearsPotential frauds lurking around.3 yearsMy laptop suddenly showed a warning about a security breach telling me to ring this number because my IP had supposedly been hacked. When I dialled, they told me to go on Anydesk.com so they could 'fix' things remotely. I was a bit suspicious so I ended the call. Later, they rang me back from a private number but I didn’t pick up. Turns out it was a scam, but it felt pretty legit since my computer seemed locked until I contacted them.Anydesk. com3 yearsI got a message on my screen saying my iPhone was locked and to call this number. First time I tried ringing, I hung up before anyone picked up. Then some bloke with an Asian accent called me back asking if I needed help. He wanted me to go onto my computer so he could “check” the message. I didn’t trust it at all and refused to give any details or let him onto my PC. Kept calling me “mate” which felt odd. The message looked genuine but it's totally a scam, so watch out!Apple3 yearsI was just browsing on Google when suddenly my screen got locked with a warning saying that Microsoft had blocked my PC to stop some kind of fraud. It also told me not to turn off the computer. I decided to call the number shown, using my landline, and an Asian man answered. I told him I believed it was a scam and then I turned the computer off and on again. So far, everything seems fine.Microsoft3 yearstotal scam, dont share any of your info dont let them put anythign on your laptop i told action fraud about it and also the cops sounds like its from some indian scammersAction FraudIndia3 yearsThis number has called me a few times now, but each time they just end the call without saying anything.3 yearsI ran into one of these scams where a fake Apple alert popped up when I went onto a dodgy website. I picked up the phone and this person with a really thick Asian accent tried to trick me into installing some dodgy software by setting up a link on my computer. Since I hung up, I’ve been getting loads of calls from unknown numbers, which I’m pretty sure is them trying to get me to finish the setup. I’ve ignored every single one. If you ever get this, no need to ring them back - just shut down Safari and you should be fine.AppleSubmit Your Own Report (020 4587 1207)
