8 yearsTotal scam. They ask for your login info and try to hijack your computer. Complete rip off. Watch out, these crooks are everywhere. My PC was clean, no viruses at all.9 yearsAbsolutely a scam, wouldnt recommend calling that number. Id say just block it and shut your phone off for those calls. Also made a report on facebook about it.Facebook9 yearsComplete rip-off, stay clear of this number. I blocked it on my phone and even reported it to Facebook. Absolute waste of time.Facebook10 yearsSo I was checking out some news on Facebook and when I tried to open an article, instead of loading it, I got this scary pop-up pretending to be from Microsoft saying my computer was infected. It said if I didn't ring a certain number, my files would get messed up. I quickly turned off my modem, closed everything else running, then went straight to Task Manager to force quit my browser. After that I ran a full Norton scan just to be safe, and thankfully my PC was fine. Looks like a scam being spread through Facebook. Best thing is to just avoid clicking on any other links from there.MicrosoftNortonFacebook10 yearsFalse story on FB, anyone know who’s calling?10 yearsThis has got to be one of those scam calls, for sure.10 yearsThey somehow got access to my phone through FD. Really hope they fix this quickly.10 yearsJust got a call from 0800 069 8621, and they said they were from Microsoft, but they're definitely not. I called them after seeing a weird error pop up when I clicked something on Facebook. This lot really should be reported to the proper authorities, they’re up to no good.MicrosoftFacebook10 yearsI've just encountered a bit of a nuisance-my entire computer is now locked up tight! Thankfully, I'm relying on a backup system for the moment.10 yearsthis has gotta be some kind of scam. ive told facebook about it lots of times, but they just ignore me and dont say anything. now im thinking of taking it up with the police or something.Facebook10 yearsComplete scam! I got this popup saying my laptop was infected with viruses and hackers, and it’d shut down if I didn’t ring the provided number. The number started with 0800, so it seemed legit at first. When I called, the person sounded like they knew what they were talking about, but then they asked for my info so they could remotely access my computer, asking if I was okay with that. I hung up straight away. Didn’t give them any of my info. They even tried calling me back later, but that time it showed up as an international number. Stay clear of this!10 yearsI saw this dodgy message on Facebook newsfeed claiming to be Microsoft. They had an 0800 number to call, then asked for personal info to somehow get into your PC remotely. Just don’t fall for it! Best thing is to hang up straight away, unplug your machine and give it a full restart.MicrosoftFacebook10 yearsA warning popped up on my screen saying it was from Microsoft and that my computer would be shutting down in five minutes. I shut my computer off straight away to be safe.Microsoft10 yearsI've come across a rather dodgy website linked to bad-xnews.com that seems to be spreading nonsense across Facebook. They’ve got this attention-grabbing clickbait claiming some famous person has passed away, but don’t be fooled. Once you click through, you're hit with a pop-up saying your device is compromised and that you must ring a certain number to safeguard your personal information. It looks like we’re dealing with yet another scam, this time masquerading as "Microsoft." Best to steer clear!FacebookMicrosoft10 yearsAn alert popped up on my computer saying it had a virus. A man with an American accent told me straight away to ring a certain number or else my PC would get locked. It was supposedly from Microsoft, but seemed fishy to me.Microsoft10 yearsScam alert!
