Been getting calls from this number all morning, around 7.30, then again close to 9.15, and once more just before 11. Every time, I just ended the call without saying a word.

Got a call at 7.07 am from an asian woman saying she was with Microsoft. She already knew my name but I reckon she got it from a directory or something. I told her it was way too early to be ringing and to stop calling me. Same kind of thing happened to my lad before, he got scammed. They took remote control of his computer, didn’t fix a thing but managed to con him out of £80. Just be careful out there!

It was like 7:45am when I got a call from a number I didn’t know, so I just ignored it. After seeing what others said, I’m really happy I didn’t pick up!

I got a call from an Asian lady saying she was from Microsoft or something like that. I told her straight she was running a scam and that it was really nasty to trick people like that. Funny enough, she just hung up on me after that. It makes me wonder, can’t they block numbers like this from being used again?

Got a call supposedly from Microsoft business park in Reading, they were real pushy saying my computer was involved in some criminal stuff and they needed to reset it. I got suspicious, ended the call quick, and no surprise, they rang me back straight away just shouting abuse down the phone. Honestly, what a dreadful person.

Someone called saying they were from Microsoft and gave me a reference number, which I didn’t have, so I knew it was dodgy. They wanted me to log in to some site like [#]support[###], but I never fell for it. Definitely a scam attempt.

Got a call from a woman called Anna Smith, she said she was ringing from the Microsoft Reading Centre. It was crazy, she called at 7:11 in the morning! She was telling me my computer got hacked or something. When I mentioned I was recording the call, she just went silent for a moment then said alright. She tried to threaten me with locking me out of my computer, I told her that’s no problem. She didn’t say anything else and then just hung up. I've put her number on my block list now.

Received a rather aggressive call this morning around 7:15 from someone purporting to be from Microsoft, supposedly located in Reading. They insisted that my computer had been compromised and threatened that I’d be locked out unless I granted them remote access. Quite alarming, to say the least!

Had a call from a bloke this morning, and then a lady rang me at lunchtime! I'm so fed up with these constant calls!!! Do they honestly believe we're all daft? Sometimes I just play along for a bit, but lately I've been telling them it's 'quite interesting' since I own an Apple computer. Their reaction? Priceless!

I got a call at about 7.10 in the morning from a really upbeat guy with an Asian accent. I’m guessing he had no idea what time it was here. Before he could even say who he was, I interrupted and said, "It’s just after 7am, what do you think you're playing at?" and then I just ended the call.

a lady with an asian accent rang me, said she was from microsoft, mentioned some business park thing. she claimed that in the past three days, my pc sent warning signals to microsoft. she asked if i was by my computer so she could update some microsoft reference number. i told her i actually use an apple desktop, so wondered how microsoft would get warning messages from it. she then said there’s a microsoft machine registered under my name. after that, the call pretty much stopped.
