7 yearsGot a call from a Northern Ireland number, didn’t pick up though. Most likely some kind of scam. Ended up blocking it!Northern Ireland7 yearsGot a call off some Northern Ireland number I didn't pick up, seemed dodgy to me. Most likely some sort of scammer, so just blocked it straight away!Northern Ireland7 yearsGot a call earlier from a bloke claiming to be with Microsoft. I just told him straight, "Are you after my bank info and PIN or what?" and told him to jog on.Microsoft7 yearsBeware of a con artist posing as a Microsoft representative, attempting to persuade you into giving them access to your computer. This is highly risky! Steer clear and do not give in to their requests.Microsoft7 yearsI've gotten this call a few times before. rang me this morning saying my Microsoft PC was hacked or something. I just hung up straight away. They're trying to trick you into letting them control your computer remotely. Don’t ever follow what they say, it’s a total scam.Microsoft7 yearsI got a call from someone who claimed to be with Microsoft, but honestly, he kept messing up the name. It was obvious it was a dodgy call. When I said I don’t even have a computer, he insisted I did. I couldn’t help but laugh at how bad his English was and how rubbish his scam sounded before telling him to sod off.Microsoft7 yearswe got in touch with call guardian and they handled it all perfectly for us.Call Guardian7 yearsI got a call from a bloke who claimed to be Jack from Microsoft, saying there was something wrong with my PC. I just ended the call right away.JackMicrosoft8 yearsNot sure tbh! My BT call guardian caught it and stopped the call, so I'm guessing it was probably a scam.BT Call Guardian8 yearsThis 648563 number just rang me about quarter of an hour ago. The bloke started by asking how I was but spoke in really dodgy English. He said he was calling from the Microsoft Windows support team and claimed my PC was hacked. He told me to switch my computer on so he could guide me through fixing it. I refused, and then he suddenly got all bossy and pretty angry.Microsoft8 yearsGot a bunch of missed calls from 328 267185. These days, scam calls come in nonstop, so I just let them ring and check if they've left a voicemail before bothering to call back, helps me avoid the rubbish ones. I'm signed up with TPS, yet these dodgy numbers still manage to get past somehow. Honestly, Openreach being the main company handling phone lines, they should be forced to block these nuisances for good.Telephone Preference ServiceOpenreach8 yearsThey rang about 4pm on 21/6/18 claiming my computer was infected with a virus. Told them we don’t have a computer and they just went ahead and called us liars. Definitely a scam.8 yearsgot a call but there was no voicemail left or anything.8 yearsSome bloke rang saying he was from Microsoft. I wasn’t convinced and pointed out that his spiel about my PC having a virus was exactly the same as another call I got yesterday from someone pretending to be BT. I called him out for trying to scam me. He got really annoyed and threatened to block my computer so I wouldn’t be able to use it. I wrapped things up by telling him I expected a bit of help if there was an actual virus, not threats if I didn’t do what he said.Microsoft8 yearsI answered the call but there was no one on the other end, they just hung up right away.8 yearsThey rang me but didn’t say anything or leave a message.8 yearsthis woman called claiming she was from microsoft and said my pc had a virus. she had this strange polish or maybe european accent. she told me to go to my computer and do what she says. yeah, right, no thanks!MicrosoftSubmit Your Own Report (028 2826 7185)
