Phone number ☎️ 03859401370 👆 is reported as a nuisance scam call originating often from individuals impersonating Microsoft support. Callers claim the recipient's computer is infected with a virus and offer to fix it remotely, sometimes requesting payment for their so-called services. They may pressure people into providing remote access or purchasing unnecessary software. Victims frequently experience repeated calls, hang-ups once answered, and aggressive behaviour if challenged. Many report detecting foreign accents and suspicious caller behaviour. This scam primarily targets older or less tech-savvy individuals, causing distress and confusion. Authorities and Microsoft confirm these calls are fraudulent, and recipients are advised to avoid engagement, not to grant remote access, and to report the number appropriately.

I’ve got no clue who’s calling. Whenever I pick up, they just drop the call straight away.

This number has called me like 10 times, mainly around 8 to 9 in the evening. Every time I pick up, they just hang up. I'm 74 and look after my wife who is disabled, I really don't want all this bother. Why isn't anything done about these annoying calls?

Some bloke rang up saying there was a virus on my PC. I pretended to be clueless, asking if it could actually catch me like a real bug or something. He probably thought he had me fooled, then I dropped the bomb that I work in IT, had tracked his number back to New Delhi, and wagered fifty quid that his name definitely wasn't Peter Smith.

I got called by a couple of blokes saying they were from Microsoft support. After chatting with them for about 40 minutes, they didn't manage to get anything from me except a serious telling off. They kept saying my computer was sending out some harmful data through a satellite connection but couldn’t even say which device was causing it. I ended up ringing Microsoft myself, and they told me straight away it was a scam.

They called up saying there was some kinda infection on the computer at my job.

This bloke claimed he was with Microsoft and insisted my PC was infected with a virus. He kept going on about this special Microsoft software that only he had access to, which supposedly could fix the problem when no one else could. I told him my computer has got good antivirus protection, but he argued he had proof from Microsoft servers showing otherwise. I then said I’d take it to an official Microsoft authorised technician, but he told me they wouldn’t be able to spot the issue ‘cause only Microsoft themselves could sort it out. I quickly ended the call when I heard his Indian/Pakistani accent and realised it was a scam.

They said they were from Windows warning us about a virus on our PC, which just didn’t feel right at all.

Absolutely a total scam. I got a call today, but it’s happened before as well. They claim to be from Microsoft and say your computer has some urgent Error Report - something I never even send. They try to get you to log into your PC and then show supposed errors in your registry. After that, they redirect you to a web page asking you to press a button that grants them Remote Access. On top of that, they push you to buy some sort of fix for about £250. While still talking to them, I quickly searched online and figured out it was a scam. So, I told them off and ended the call, but they kept ringing me back. In the end, they called roughly a dozen times and became pretty rude. This trick would easily fool a lot of older people, especially those who aren’t great with computers or the internet, making them panic over harmless error messages they don’t understand.

Got a call from a number I didn't recognise. Anyone know who that might be?
