Got a call from some bloke with a thick Indian accent telling me my computer had a 'virus'. I told him it was a load of rubbish and insisted on his name and phone number to "verify" it. He gave me this dodgy number and said his name was "Peter Smith" - yeah right! Just like before, they hung up on me straight away. I'm on the TPS list, so why is this still happening? Surely something should be done about these muppets!

Got a call from someone claiming to be Microsoft, said my computer had a problem they could sort out. Pretty weird how they all had English names even though their accent was Indian. I told them my son works as an IT technician in the army and then they just hung up on me.

Complete muppet pretending to be from Microsoft. I enjoy messing with them by pretending to follow their instructions, but then confusing him when I said I couldn't find the Windows key (typical Mac keyboard, ha). When he started getting unsure, I kept him talking long enough to do a reverse search on his number and told him the cops were already heading his way.

Looks like this number shows as being from Southampton with the 023 area code, but it actually comes from the 02356 code which is in Lote, Maharashtra, India. So, basically the UK agencies like TPS or ActionFraud can't really do much about the scammers using this.

Got two missed calls earlier today and eventually picked up. It was a bloke with an Indian accent. He actually knew my name, but I had to ask him to speak louder cause the line was all static. Then, he just hung up on me. I've blocked the number now.

Got 4 missed calls and picked up one, typical Microsoft scam going on again. The people on the other end were anything but nice, proper rude when I told them I don’t have any issues, but even if I did, I’d sort it myself. They started shouting loads of swear words at me. Lovely bunch, not. Normally I’d say just don’t answer, but those 5 calls happened all within like 2 hours, so.. yeah.

Some bloke with an Asian accent called himself Roy and claimed to be from Microsoft Windows. Sounded proper fake to me. I played along for about 5 minutes until he asked if I was having a laugh. I told him straight up, yeah cos you’re a total scammer, and he just dropped the call.

Unlike what everyone else is saying, I heard some faint sounds like someone was hurt or in distress. I kept saying hello around 20 times before a deep female voice answered with a strong German accent saying "dankeschön," then they just ended the call. For those who don't know, danke schön means thank you.

Got a call today from an Asian guy with a very English sounding name. Claimed he was from Microsoft Windows. Told him I wasn't convinced and asked for his direct number to verify. He gave me 03448002400. I rung 1471 to check and the number showed up as 02356497925, which is flagged as risky. Didn’t answer when he rang back. Stay alert, folks!!!

(It’s called 4 times since April this year) My missus had a proper long chat with a bloke from that end today (17/12/16) and even after she told him exactly where to go, he still kept on about our computer being at risk.

This lady named Lisa called me a couple of times, I couldn’t really get what she was saying properly (bit of an Indian accent) but she claimed to be from Microsoft saying there was an issue with my PC. When she rang the third time, I just played Rick Astley’s ‘Never Gonna Give You Up’ on speaker and left her to hear that. Haven’t heard from her again. Honestly, just block these calls straight away.

Claiming to be from Microsoft. Same old Indian sounding bloke. Says there's an issue with your computer. I asked which computer? They say your Windows PC. I told them I don't have a Windows PC. Then they ask what computer I do have??? How would you know there’s an issue if you don’t even know? Pretty clear it's a scam. Told them to jog on.

This number has called me twice now. The first time, I just told them to buzz off. When they rang again, I pretended I was hard of hearing and asked the caller to check their headset was in properly so they could hear me clearer. Then, I blew a loud police whistle into the phone. Not sure if it’ll put an end to the calls, but it definitely made me feel better!

Glad I looked up this number! We’re lucky with BT’s call guardian on our landline, which means anyone not on my allowed list has to say their name before the call goes through. This really keeps cold callers at bay. The number has popped up loads of times, but if they won’t identify themselves, the call gets blocked, though the number still shows on the caller ID. Before we had this system, I’d handle those annoying calls by asking “Microsoft who?” When they explained, I’d just say I don’t own a computer, nor do I need one for work. That usually shuts them right up!

There was a big pause before they answered so I just hung up right away, felt like a scam for sure. Reading what others have said, I’m happy I didn’t bother. I’m on the TPS and ex-directory, so most calls I get are pretty much illegal anyway.

Some girl with an accent called me, saying she needed to discuss my computer. I called her out for being a scammer and warned I'd report her to the police. She sounded shocked, like "What are you on about?!"
