I received a rather alarming message claiming that my computer is infected with some sort of malicious software. They even provided me with a serial number and continuously reach out to further press their point. They purport to be representatives of Microsoft, which feels rather dubious to me.

Got a call from a guy claiming to be from 'Microsoft', sounded like he was Indian. I told him I actually use a MacBook, and I could tell it was a scam straight away. He just chuckled and then ended the call.

Some bloke called saying he was from Microsoft. I told him I wasn’t bothered. Then he goes, hang on a sec - I never said I was interested.

I just got a call from a guy with an Indian accent saying he was from Microsoft. I told him I don’t even own a computer, thinking he’d end the call like they usually do. But instead, he blurted out some really rude stuff at me! I quickly hung up, honestly didn’t expect that kind of reaction. Usually, they just drop the call.

I received a call from an individual purporting to represent Microsoft Windows. However, as soon as I inquired about how he had obtained my phone number, he abruptly ended the conversation. Odd behaviour, to say the least!

a bloke claiming he was from microsoft rang me. after a quick chat about my laptop apparently downloading loads of stuff, i asked him for his contact number saying i'd give him a ring back. he told me 4473887914. when i looked the number up, nothing showed up. so, i never called back.
