Mine popped up on my screen too, saying something about my computer being hacked, just like all the other ones I've seen!

Quite clearly a fraudster, if the previous remarks are anything to go by. It appears they're employing tactics reminiscent of ransomware.

My laptop suddenly locked up and a message popped on the screen telling me to ring a certain number. I suspected it was some kind of scam straight away, so I just turned off the computer and switched it back on again.

I rang them up after my computer alerted me to a trojan virus. I allowed them access at first, but then it clicked in my mind what I was doing, so I quickly changed my password and cut off the call along with the screen sharing.

A colleague of mine was midway through a quiz when all of a sudden a loud voice came through, commanding him to halt all activity, stating that his computer was now locked. He was advised to call a certain number. Upon doing so, the unknown callers accessed his device to supposedly unlock it. Who knows what sort of software they might have planted! As a precaution, he ran a Norton antivirus scan afterwards to check for any nasties.

I received an incessant voice message claiming to be from Microsoft Defender, insisting that I must ring this number immediately to unlock my computer. I strongly advise against calling this number. Thankfully, I managed to use the Alt Control Delete function to shut my computer down and, after that, it booted up just fine.

My husband got a call with the same loud siren sound and a message showing on the screen. He caught on it was a scam pretty quick and told them to get lost. We’ve already reported it to the police.

My computer suddenly hung, and a message popped up telling me to call the Windows Defender support straight away at a certain number. Being cautious, I googled the helpline first and found a totally different phone number, which led me here. I ended up switching off my PC completely, then restarted it and ran a CCleaner scan. Everything looks okay now, but I’m still a bit uneasy about how that dodgy stuff got in in the first place!

I got a pop-up on my laptop warning me not to turn it off and to ring 02081543409 because my computer supposedly has a Trojan virus. When I called, the bloke on the line had an accent and claimed to be from Microsoft. Definitely a scam, don’t trust them!

Totally a scam, got a call saying my PC was locked and to fix it I had to ring 0208 1543409. Luckily, Norton helped me out. The weirdest bit was my computer wouldn't even let me shut the window down, so I had to restart the whole thing!

had another call from some bloke claiming to be from Microsoft, honestly feels so bad how they try to trick folks into giving away their savings. It’s not just about the cash, it’s the way they make people feel like idiots or worthless which is just awful. BT really ought to do more to crack down on these fake websites and protect people from this kinda thing.

While my husband was engrossed in the news on his computer, he suddenly found himself locked out. Despite having security measures in place, it failed to alert him to this unexpected issue. Quite baffling, really!

Credible website regarding a potential Russian cyber intrusion - it seems they’ve compromised accounts through continuous online activities. Banks and card issuers have been notified.

My laptop suddenly locked up after I called a number from a supposed security warning. They claimed to be from Microsoft and said they needed to access my computer to sort it out. I’m pretty sure it was a scam though, so I didn’t let them in.

They claimed to be from Microsoft saying my laptop was infected with a virus. They told me to call 02081543409, which they called their Microsoft support line. I looked up the number and quickly realised it was a scam. After reading a few of the reviews, I just closed the window. Then I ran my own virus scan and everything turned out fine.

I found the number 02081543409 showing up on my laptop, supposedly from some Microsoft support line for my computer. My laptop screen had loads of pop-ups covering it, stopping me from getting in. My partner tried calling the number and asked who was speaking but the person on the phone mumbled something weird and it was hard to understand. When he asked where they were calling from, the bloke just told him to basically get lost! Seriously, don’t ever let anyone connected to this number get into your computer, they’ll probably nick all your personal info!

I’m relieved I stumbled upon this website; I was almost entirely convinced it was a con artist operation, especially since it had my laptop in a right tizz! After some frustration, I managed to shut the thing down and reboot it, thankfully restoring everything to how it should be. It’s a shame these individuals can’t channel their evident technical prowess into something more legitimate and worthwhile.

I received a rather alarming notification on my computer, purportedly from Windows Defender Security Center Services, claiming that my system had been locked due to my IP address being associated with websites involved in identity theft. The message urged me to ring a specific support number to regain access. The display detailed: App: Ads.fiancetrack(2).doll Threat Detected: Trojan Spyware I trust this information proves useful to others who might encounter a similar situation. Best, Kevin Sherwood.

Number 020 8154 3409 is linked to a scam I came across after opening a story on Microsoft Edge. It tried to make me believe it was Microsoft warning me my computer had a trojan virus and had to be locked for safety. What really happened was the article went into full screen mode and the only things you can click are the popup boxes. Don’t press any buttons, just press 'Esc' and shut the browser tab. If you didn’t click, your PC should be fine, no damage done.

My computer flashed a warning saying it was blocked. I dialled the number that appeared, supposedly for Microsoft support, to sort it out. A chap on the line claimed I was under threat from hackers and that it would cost me £199 for some sort of protection. My wife did a quick search on the number, and lo and behold, it turned out to be a classic bank scam. Curiously, he wasn't asking for my bank details but only wanted my debit card information. When I confronted him about being a scammer and pressed for his name, he simply said “Frank” and refused to provide anything else. I hung up the phone, and happily, my computer is functioning just fine now.

I own an iPad, but I'm not particularly tech-savvy, especially at the age of 82. Recently, I encountered a pop-up on my screen indicating "Apple Platform Security," which urges me to contact Apple Support at 020-8154-3409. I'm aware that this is likely a scam. To make matters worse, there's an ongoing voice message declaring that my device has been locked. Could anyone advise me on how to remove this intrusive message and the accompanying audio?

I got a dodgy pop-up on Microsoft Edge saying my PC was locked and I had to pay £700 to fix some spyware. They called themselves Microtech and wanted to get into my computer, but it felt fishy so I didn’t go along with it. Definitely a scam trying to trick people into giving them money!

Earlier today, my computer completely locked up, and I couldn't move my mouse at all. I received a rather alarming notification claiming I had a TROJAN and instructed me to call a specific number. The message urged me NOT to switch off my computer, but naturally, I disregarded that and powered it down for about an hour and a half-when I turned it back on, the screen was fine! I strongly advise against calling that number; it's clearly a SCAM designed to empty your pockets!

I found this number flashing up on my wife’s laptop, which seemed to completely freeze the device. Despite restarting it multiple times, she couldn’t shake it off. They were claiming her laptop had picked up a trojan and needed urgent shutting down. I quickly realised it was a scam when they used the phrase “call toll free” - it’s rather telling, isn’t it? That term is so distinctly American! I reckon those Nigerian con artists ought to invest in a proper British English dictionary!

My laptop suddenly showed a warning about a Trojan virus, locking the screen and instructing me to call a specific number saying it was from Windows. The person on the line was really polite and seemed to fix loads of stuff, but when he asked for payment, alarm bells rang and I contacted my bank straight away to stop any transactions. It’s a pretty clever scam and caught me off guard, honestly quite hard to spot if you’re not expecting it. I also tried to reach out to actual Windows support afterwards, but didn’t get any useful assistance there.

Today, 16/09/2022, I got a message pop up on my computer saying it was locked. It told me to ring 02081543409 because they claimed to be from Microsoft and asked for my name. They said someone would call back and guide me through fixing the 'infection' on my PC. I knew instantly it was a scam. I just closed every window, turned the computer off, then restarted it, and the message was gone. After that, I ran a full scan and checked my antivirus was still up and running properly. Don’t fall for these hackers trying to access your info. Keep safe, everyone!

My computer got stuck after a message popped up saying it was from Windows Defender and asked me to call this number. When I rang, the person on the other end talked me into buying some kind of anti-virus and malware protection for my network. It sounded legit at first, but then I asked a mate who's better with tech and he told me it was dodgy. I looked up the number online and sure enough, it's a total scam!

They warned I was in danger and shouldn't turn off my PC but call straight away. Luckily, I know a bit about tech and managed to get out of it without giving them access. Total SCAM. If I'd let them in, they wanted £349 - what a costly ripoff! I've already reported it.
