08000418450 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 08000418450 πŸ‘† is reported as a persistent scam call linked to fraudulent computer support claims. Callers, often with heavy South Asian accents, impersonate technical support from reputable providers, referencing antivirus software or system upgrades, frequently addressing recipients by name. Their aim is to gain remote computer access to install malware or extort payments. Calls occur multiple times daily, sometimes from varying numbers, and rarely leave voicemail. Many targets note the callers possess personal details like name and email, raising concerns about data sourcing. Recipients strongly advise not engaging, blocking the number, and reporting to official channels such as Action Fraud. The frequency and sophistication of these calls highlight the importance of vigilance and parliamentary action to enforce caller identification technology.

Got a call from someone with a foreign accent, said there was an issue with my router and claimed to be from some three-letter group, something like EPG. They even knew my name and email, which was a bit worrying. Turned out to be a scam, so I cut the call straight away and blocked the number.

They keep ringing me but never leave a message. When I pick up, all I get is someone saying hello but no idea who they are or where they’re ringing from. I’ve blocked the number now.

Got a call at 10 in the morning on a Sunday, some so-called tech support or whatever (awful connection). They were going on about a payment in dollars, but I told them I’m not daft enough to fall for that. What really got me was they also had one of my old email addresses I barely use now, plus my mobile. Watch out for these lot!

They rang me at half eight tonight, said my name and then just cut off. These annoying numbers keep ringing me like 10 to 20 times every weekday, but they never bother me on Sundays. Honestly, I’m well fed up with all these scam calls.

I've had a couple of calls like this too. Seems like they somehow get your name and who your provider is, then ring up pretending to be tech support saying you need to put some antivirus software on your computer. Their real aim is to get control of your PC so they can sneak in spyware or malware. Once that's done, they can track everything you do, steal your passwords and bank info when you shop online. I work in IT, so when I call them out on their nonsense they usually just end the call pretty quick.

I've gotten a couple of these calls myself, reckon they get your name and phone company info from somewhere, then ring up claiming they're tech support needing to put some antivirus software on your computer. They want to get into your PC so they can plant spyware or malware, which lets them see everything you do - passwords, bank info when you shop online, all that. I work in IT, so when I tell them I know what they're up to, they usually just drop the call straight away.

They used my name but the rest was just nonsense, only caught the word ‘computer’. Strong Indian accent that was hard to get. I told them to stop calling me.

Just check the two comments right below this one for a proper guide to put an end to these scam calls. If all the people in the UK who get these dodgy calls and texts each day actually follow the steps, then maybe the cops and government will finally crack down on these scams. Don’t just sit back and hope someone else will sort it out. It’s not hard or time-consuming. I’ve bookmarked the ‘action fraud’ website and even dropped a message to my MP, got a rather cheeky reply! But it won’t make a difference if it’s only me doing it.

Got a call from a bloke probably from India about some computer issues. He even knew my wife’s name which freaked me out. I just hung up and blocked the number straight away. Funny thing is, we never used to get calls like this before, but after giving our info to an estate agent to sell the house, we’ve been getting loads every single day.

Got calls from some call centre in India, with a woman saying her name was Jenny Williams. She claimed I’d bought something from them before and needed to update my anti-virus plus get a free computer scan. I told her her name wasn’t Jenny Williams, I never bought anything from them, and no, I wasn’t near my computer. They’ve rung me about a dozen times now using different numbers. She’s even started sending WhatsApp messages!

Got a call from 08000418450 about some antivirus service. Total scam! They ask you to download some software that lets them take control of your computer. Then they lock you out, say it’s a virus problem, and demand money to fix it. Have a look on YouTube for ‘scammer payback’ (not my vid) to see how these frauds operate. Stay clear!

Just got a call from 08000418450 about some antivirus software. It’s a total con!

I just got a call from this 0800 number. I ignored it and let it go to voicemail but nothing was left. Usually I don't pick up my landline since people mostly ring my mobile, and I don’t take unknown mobile calls anyway. This one caught my eye so I decided to find out who it was.

I received a call from a lady with an Asian twang who said she was associated with Microsoft support, insisting that she could assist me in upgrading my Windows system. She mentioned that the Windows 11 upgrade was all set to go. I was quite courteous in telling her that I would prefer she didn’t ring me again!

I kept getting calls from what sounded like a call centre in India, sometimes they'd ring me up three times in one day. The bloke on the line kept calling me by my first name, which I found a bit odd. I told him that wasn’t me, and said my name was haggis instead. He then went on about how they’d supposedly fixed my computer before and it was time for another check-up. I told them honestly that I don’t have a computer and never have. Plus, I mentioned I’m homeless. After that, they just ended the call.
