Phone number ☎️ 02080280890 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation targeting UK residents with repeated calls from individuals claiming to be Microsoft support staff, often featuring Asian accents. Callers use intimidating tactics, alleging computer faults or security breaches to entice victims into granting remote access, potentially leading to fraud. Recipients frequently experience silent calls, aggressive behaviour, or offensive language when challenged. The number rarely leaves voicemail, appearing to rely on intimidation and confusion. Victims are advised to neither engage with callers nor provide any personal information, and to block the number immediately. Legitimate tech companies like Microsoft do not cold call customers regarding computer issues, confirming this as a clear example of a fraudulent scam.

5 yearsI keep getting calls from some guy claiming he's from Microsoft. It's so frustrating, they're always ringing and acting like we’re all idiots or something. Honestly, I’m really tired of these annoying calls!Microsoft5 yearsGot a call on my home phone from someone claiming to be Microsoft, sounded like an Indian lady. I tell ya, these scammers really grind my gears. I just told her to find a proper job and then I ended the call.Microsoft5 yearsI picked up but there was no one there... so I just ended up blocking the number.5 yearsSomebody rang me claiming to be from Microsoft, telling me to switch on my computer. Totally suspicious if you ask me.Microsoft5 yearsAbout ten minutes ago I got a call from someone saying they were Microsoft and there was a problem with my computer.Microsoft5 yearsDefinitely a scam, watch out!5 yearsGot a call from 02080280890, some bloke with an Asian accent speaking to my missus, saying her computer had some sort of issue. I grabbed the phone and started chatting rubbish in nonsense language just to wind him up. He got irritated quick, so I called him out as a scammer and a cheat. He snapped back with a nasty insult, then cut the call. Total con job, beware!5 yearsThat call felt really sketchy, honestly a bit risky.5 yearsGot a call from 02080280890 around 11 this morning, some Asian woman claiming she was Microsoft Support or something like that. I didn’t say a word, just listened, then she started shouting my name over and over, getting louder every time. Definitely a scam or phishing attempt - legit Microsoft would never ring you out of the blue like that. I hung up and blocked the number straight away. Bet they’ll try a different number next and do the same thing again. No worries, I’ll block that one as well and the whole annoying loop will keep going on.Microsoft5 yearsThis number rang me up earlier today. For some reason, I get calls from dodgy people around 8.45 in the morning quite a lot, so I was ready! I picked up, but there was no one on the other end. I used the 1471 code to see who it was. Bit of a pity I couldn’t have a chat though - I was feeling cheeky and wanted to mess about with them for a bit ;)5 yearsI had the same experience, these lot try to trick you into letting them take over your computer remotely.

It's just one of loads I get every day.5 yearsHad a call from a woman with an Asian accent, claiming she was from Microsoft and that my computer was about to get blocked.

They should be sent straight back to their own countries where they belong.5 yearsClassic Microsoft Windows scam at it again! The moment she said I had issues with my PC, I just shot back with “No way.” She insisted it wasn’t a scam. I told her we've been repeatedly warned over the last 8 years that Microsoft never makes unsolicited calls and it’s always a con. Then, guess what? She ended the call. Typical!Microsoft5 yearsThey never even picked up.5 yearsGot a call from 02080280890, some Asian woman saying she was with Microsoft. I just ended the call straight away.

She hung up straight away.June SmithMicrosoft5 yearsThis number 02080280668/890 keeps ringing my phone like clockwork every morning starting at 8.45am and then keeps trying every couple of hours till nearly half twelve. I ignore it every time and they never bother to leave a voicemail. Honestly, it’s so annoying now.5 yearsThis morning I got calls from the same number like 5 times. Each time I picked up, they just hung up on the 4 times. On the fifth ring, my husband answered and they started saying something about me looking at porn sites.

When I tried calling back, a guy called Karim wasn’t there or something.Karim5 yearsI keep getting calls in Surrey at about 11 in the morning from people saying there's something wrong with my computer. Pretty sure it’s just another scammer trying to pull a fast one.Surrey6 yearsGot a call from someone saying Microsoft said my PC was hacked.

She started chatting about my computer, but I just ended the call!SophieMicrosoft6 yearsI usually just ignore any calls from London numbers, it's rare they actually leave a voicemail explaining the reason. Surely if it was important, they’d bother to leave a message! This new one rang me around half past twelve, but earlier in the day, I got another call from 02080280667 - seems like it’s the same outfit trying different numbers, probably hoping I’d be fooled into thinking it’s someone else.London6 yearsThis number has been bugging me constantly, it’s honestly straight up harassment. Can’t get a moment’s peace without it ringing non-stop. Total nightmare!6 yearsI got one of those calls where you answer and it’s dead quiet, like nobody's even on the other end, really weird.6 yearsHung up as soon as I heard the accent, didn't want to risk it.Submit Your Own Report (020 8028 0890)
