9 yearsHad a few calls from this number back in 2017, and I almost got caught out by their trick. It wasn’t until the end of the chat that I cottoned on - they mentioned I was owed some money back from my supplier, which set alarm bells ringing. Since then, every time they ring, I tell them I’ve got a gadget that alerts the police whenever I press a button during a call. Almost immediately, they hang up. But the funny thing is, today the woman on the phone kept going with their usual spiel even after I said that. These calls are definitely scams and I’ve flagged them up to the police loads of times, but it doesn’t seem like anything ever gets done about it.10 yearsGot a caller who was just as pushy and sounded like the same one from before. While on the phone, I quickly looked them up on this site and one other, then told them I thought it was a scam. They denied it, but annoyingly rang back a few mins after we hung up. Is there really no way to put a stop to these calls? They come through at least twice every week, which is driving me mad. R10 yearsI just had a call and it felt really off, like it wasn't legit. Also, how on earth did they even get my number? Quite suspicious if you ask me.10 yearsI've hardly shared my fairly new phone number with anyone, but this supposed Microsoft technician rings me constantly from this number. Even though my laptop does have a virus, I’m convinced this call isn’t legit whatsoever.Microsoft10 yearsToday, 19th August, I got a call from someone named Alice Williams who had a German-ish accent. She was telling me my computer was about to suffer serious issues. She kept pushing really hard, but I told her straight up it sounded like a scam and I wasn't interested, then hung up. Less than a minute later, she called back. I warned her I'd hang up again and if she called a third time, I'd probably lose my temper big time. Thankfully, no more calls came through. Later on, I tried ringing the number and it just said 'number not recognised' - no surprises there!Alice Williams10 yearsGot the same call here. Running an IT business, so I wasn’t falling for their tricks, but it'd be great if there was a way to track down their info and report it to the coppers.10 yearsOn the 28th May 2016, about 2:15pm, I got a call from a lady with an Asian accent. She claimed there were some serious issues with my computer and said she was a Microsoft Certified Engineer who could fix things for me. She asked me to press the Windows key and the letter R to open some files or something. I wasn’t falling for it at all. She even gave me a number to call her back, but I’ve no intention of ringing it!Microsoft12 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be a "Microsoft certified engineer" - total scam. Asked for their contact number and they gave me some dodgy one. The guy, Mike Taylor or something, was really unpleasant. He ended up turning off all the services on my PC, and then it just crashed. If you get a call like this saying it’s from Microsoft, don’t fall for it, just hang up. Honestly, I’m pretty let down by the whole experience.MicrosoftMike Taylor12 yearsWhen they ring me, I just answer and blurt out "Get lost!" straight away.12 yearsWatch out for anyone calling from 02081441094, they're total scammers. Honestly, these folks are just trying to trick you, so stay cautious!12 yearsThey didn’t leave any sort of message at all.12 yearsI got a call from someone with a strong Indian accent, called himself Steven - can't recall his very English-sounding last name though. He was really patient since I’m rubbish with computers. I spent ages trying to fix some errors on my laptop that I actually did have. He then gave me a code to enter, but after I did, I noticed they could control my mouse remotely. Now I’m worried if I might be at risk of phishing or something worse. I’m quite nervous about buying anything online nowadays. It only clicked for me when they asked for £169.99 and wanted my card info. Any advice or help would be much appreciated. They came across as very professional and quite persuasive, sadly.Steven12 yearsI got a call from some guy named Micheal Stevens who spoke with an Asian accent, saying there was an issue with my computer. I asked for his phone number to return the call, and he gave me this one. Yeah right, I didn't bother calling back at all!! Total SCAM, SCAM, SCAM!! These scammers really wind me up so much!!!Michael Stevens13 yearsSomeone called, trying to trick me into letting them control my keyboard. I cleverly got his phone number by pretending I’d call him back, but when I rang, no answer - I reckon he sussed it out. It’s a bit of a relief having his number visible like that, makes me hope the authorities can track down this dodgy character. Honestly, I’d really like to catch up with him face to face!13 yearsTypical computer scam again - some bloke claiming to be a "Microsoft certified tech". I asked for a contact number and was told one, then he mentioned his office was supposedly at 16 Hanover Street in London. I told him I'd call him back but never did. Seriously, can’t something be done to catch these leeches?MicrosoftHanover StreetLondon13 yearsSome bloke called himself Oscar Brown and tricked my 74-year-old disabled mum out of £169.99. He also somehow got the AA v3 exe on her laptop. This number is dodgy and just preys on vulnerable people like her. I’ve already told the cops’ fraud squad about it. Stay well clear of this one!Oscar Brown13 yearsGot a call from someone named David Sarco who was telling me my computer windows had crashed... why would they even know? Nothing was wrong at all. I told them I'd ring back and they gave me this number. If they bother me again at work, I’m just gonna put them on hold and leave them there. That’ll stop them for sure!David SarcoDavid13 yearsso I got a call from some guy claiming to be ALAN SMITH about issues with my windows computer. He gave me a phone number and told me to ask for technician 35. Thing is, his accent was really strong, sounded Asian, so I doubt his name was really Alan Smith. I figured it was a scam straight away and never even bothered turning my laptop on.Alan Smith13 yearsI’m really worried, my daughter ended up dealing with these folks and honestly, I’ve no idea how to handle it. Can anyone help?13 yearsI just got a call from these people. The bloke said his name was Alex Cox, but I’m not buying it, sounded more like some dodgy Abdul or something. He spoke real smooth and stayed calm while I pretended I knew nothing about computers and acted like I couldn’t hear him properly. Honestly, if someone rings up claiming to be from Windows out of the blue, just steer clear. Always be suspicious of cold calls like that.Alex CoxAbdul13 yearsI just got a call from some muppets claiming they were from Windows tech support, saying my computer was throwing up errors. Was completely taken aback. When I asked how I could be sure they were actually from Microsoft and not some con artists, the bloke panicked a bit, saying it was an urgent virus problem and all that, speaking with a heavy Indian accent despite having a very English-sounding name. Seemed dodgy as hell. Told them I’d call back once my IT guy was around, and after a bit of faffing, they finally gave me this number - though they didn’t sound too chuffed about it. Definitely a scam if you ask me.WindowsMicrosoft14 yearsIn just 2 days, I've gotten three calls from these lot claiming to be from a Windows tech support team, saying my computer's in big trouble. What's odd is my PC actually froze about 10 minutes before their first ring - makes me wonder if they've already got into it somehow. I'm keeping my guard up for sure. When I asked for a callback number and requested to speak to a manager who might explain things clearly in English, the bloke gave the name George Lawson. That seemed a bit dodgy to me. Honestly, I'd avoid dealing with them, it’s definitely a con in my opinion.Windows Technical DepartmentGeorge LawsonSubmit Your Own Report (020 8144 1094)
