Stay safe around 02086387775!Microsoft2 yearsI got a call from 02086387775, this girl called Sarah, sounds Asian, said there was an "important message" about shutting down my computer. Definitely sounded dodgy to me, like a scam. Pretty sure it’s some call centre in London. Watch out for this one!SarahLondon2 yearsGot a call on my landline that’s on the TPS, right at 1.52pm on a bank holiday Monday. The line went silent when I answered, and it rang out until my answerphone kicked in, but they didn’t bother leaving any voicemail.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a call from this number, a woman with an Asian accent said she had an urgent message from some computer server company. When I asked what it was about, she started dodging my questions, so I just ended the call straight away. Not long after, the same number rang again, this time a man claimed to be the supervisor of the first caller. I asked him for more details about the company but he refused to give any info. Honestly, if you get a call from this number, just hang up. It seems like a sketchy scam to me.2 yearsThey kept calling non stop. Kept saying they weren’t trying to sell me anything, but I didn’t hang around to see what was up. Got six calls in just five minutes. Definitely don’t trust ’em.2 yearsJust got a call from this number a little while ago. The person said they’d be shutting down my computer and that I wouldn’t be able to use it anymore. It sounded a bit dodgy to me.2 yearsThere was a man claiming to be from Microsoft who persuaded an older man to let him access his computer remotely. Once he had control, he blocked the gentleman out and then demanded £239 to restore access. When it became clear he wasn’t going to receive anything, he started behaving aggressively and rudely. He said his name was David Samuel, but judging by his accent I’m not convinced that’s true. He keeps ringing several times a day now with a lower price, and gets very rude when told he won’t be paid. The number he’s calling from is 020 8638 7775.MicrosoftDavid Samuel2 yearsSome bloke rang up claiming to be from Microsoft, trying to get my elderly dad to give him remote access to his laptop. Once in, he locked him out and started asking for £239 to unlock it again. When he twigged we weren’t paying, he turned pretty aggressive and rude. He said his name was David Samuel, but I highly doubt that, judging by his accent. Now he’s been phoning a bunch of times every day offering a cheaper price but gets quite nasty when we tell him we’re not paying anything. The number he’s calling from is 020 8638 7775.MicrosoftDavid Samuel2 yearsWatch out for scammers!2 yearsToday, I got a call from 02086387775, some bloke named David Samuels. He said he was from a company linked to Precise Life. He mentioned he’d ring me again at 9 am to sort out something on my computer. Little does he know, I’m planning to tell him I’ve seen reports about him being a scammer. He’s in for a surprise!David SamuelsPrecise Life2 yearsOn the 23rd of May, I got a call from this number, and the person on the other end told me to turn on my PC because it was supposedly used on some "dark web" thing to watch dodgy stuff - whatever that means. I just told them to get lost and hung up. Not long after, my landline buzzed, and a bloke asked why I’d ended the call. I explained I hadn’t even touched my computer for a couple of days and that some woman was telling me to switch it on. I warned him if he kept on, I’d say the same back to him, and then he shouted an insult at me. I’ve blocked this number on both my mobile and home phone now. It’s ridiculous we have to deal with rubbish like this, especially since I’ve only just found out I have Alzheimer’s - makes it even worse that these muppets are taking advantage.Submit Your Own Report (020 8638 7775)
