Been getting calls from a Cardiff number loads recently, but they always put the phone down as soon as my answerphone picks up. They claimed to be from Microsoft wanting to chat about a computer. Thing is, I don’t own one at all. When I told them no one in the house has a computer, they just ended the call. Obviously, it’s some sort of scam.

i’ve had this bloke ringing me loads over the last fortnight. just yesterday he called me twice, once at 9:07am and again an hour later at 10:07am on the 9th of may, then once more this morning at 8:19am on the 10th. it’s always the same guy on the phone, sounds like he’s got a bit of an accent. funny thing is, he completely botches my simple name, totally mispronouncing it, and as soon as i correct him saying nobody here goes by that name, he quickly hangs up. honestly, it’s such a pain and feels really intrusive; i reckon he’s up to no good, probably some dodgy scammer!

I just got a call from this number claiming to be from Microsoft about my computer. I told the woman that I’m registered with the Telephone Preference Service so they shouldn’t be calling me, then I ended the call. She rang me back asking why I’d cut off, so I said I don’t even own a computer. She then started shouting saying their records had a computer linked to my name before she hung up on me.

Got two calls but just went to voicemail both times, cheers to everyone hanging in there though. I’m gonna block the number now.

This number rang me twice within just a couple of hours. Both times it went straight to voicemail, but no message was left. From what others have shared, it sounds like a dodgy scam. Getting two calls in such a short space of time from the same number makes me think they’re working through a list of numbers they’re trying to get through to.

Got a call from this number earlier but it just went straight to voicemail and no message was left. Luckily I saw the other comments here warning that it’s a scam aimed at hacking into your computer for illegal stuff. Better not reply or pick up, it’s dodgy. Stay safe everyone!

Got a call from this number around 10 in the morning today. It went straight to voicemail and the message played was something like “other person has cleared”, which instantly gave me the vibe it was a scam. Honestly, if you're near the phone and think it sounds fishy, get a voicemail setup and maybe even a whistle ready. There are loads of dodgy callers doing the rounds, and I bet they still have ringing in their ears after calling me!

This guy called claiming to be from "Microsoft tech support" with a really thick Indian accent. He said they’d been watching my server and my Windows PC was getting hacked. I told him we’ve got like 18 computers here, so which one exactly is the problem? He seemed a bit thrown and just said it didn’t matter, it was the one running Windows. I said again I needed to know WHICH computer he was talking about before doing anything. Then he just hung up on me. Bloody hilarious!

I ended up chatting with them for about 17 minutes, pretending to sort out some "hacked" laptop issues. After that, I told the guy he’d been wasting his time, and honestly, I felt pretty chuffed with myself!

Can't believe these calls, woke my three week old baby up again! Getting so annoyed with them.

I got a phone call earlier from someone claiming to be with Microsoft. They told me my computer was showing signs of a virus and started asking me loads of questions. I kept asking them questions back, and they soon got annoyed and even rude before just hanging up on me.

Got a call from someone pretending to be Microsoft, total scam. I kept them hanging by replying to all their questions with other questions, just to waste time. When I cracked up laughing, they lost it and started calling me all sorts of names like criminal and b#st#rd, then shouted at me to “get off the line, motherf#cker.” Proper ridiculous!

Got a call supposedly from Microsoft saying my computer was sending error alerts to their server. Totally a scam, no doubt. I just blocked the number and reported it straight away.
