9 yearsI just got a call from 08000885258 and they tried to get me to give them control of my computer. Almost fell for it but thankfully I didn’t. Watch out for this one - seems like the same old scam going around again.10 yearsLooks like this is still happening; I noticed pretty much the same stuff as other folks mentioned, so I went ahead and reported it to "Action Fraud" to see if they can do something about it.Action Fraud10 yearsHow is this number still ringing through after being flagged months back? Seriously don’t get it!10 yearsJust like a few others have said, I was looking up info about wood stoves when suddenly a warning popped up on my screen with a recorded message telling me to ring this 0800 number to unlock the laptop. I couldn’t exit the screen no matter what I tried, so I had to force the laptop off by holding down the power button. After restarting, I ran a Norton security scan which didn’t find anything wrong, so everything seems fine now.Norton10 yearsOn Wed 14 Dec `16, just before half five in the afternoon, I powered up my desktop and jumped onto eBay to chuck a cheap chainsaw bit from China in my basket and paid for it. After that, I hopped onto a chainsaw forum to have a look at some work posts but didn’t bother logging in. Suddenly, I got hit with those Microsoft scam pages like others have said here. Gave my PC a reboot then ran a scan and thankfully everything checked out okay.ChinaMicrosoft10 yearsI just said I was going to report the number to cyber crime police and GCHQ, then all I got was an "oh sh**" before the bloke hung up. Honestly, quickest way to make them piss off. Haha!GCHQHaha10 yearsOn the 9th of December, I received a very realistic-looking alert claiming to be from "Windows Defender," just like others have said before. I did call the number provided, but I think I seemed dodgy because they didn’t try to get me to mess with my computer at all. I ended the call pretty quickly and checked Windows Defender myself; everything looked fine. I even did a full scan to make sure. What I don’t get is what the scammer’s plan actually was. Still, it was pretty unsettling. D10 yearsI got a message saying a Trojan horse had managed to get into my computer and my personal info was at risk. They told me to call a number straight away. I phoned and some bloke with an Indian accent said he could sort it out. I felt a bit iffy about it though, so I told him I'd have a look and then searched the number up on my phone. That's when I found this website. I’m really thankful cause a mate of mine got scammed before - they took control of his PC remotely! Fingers crossed there’s no virus on mine now. Cheers for all the helpful info!10 yearsI got this annoying pop-up that wouldn't let me close the browser at all, so in the end, I had to just turn off my PC completely and reboot it. After that, I looked up the number 0800 086 9828 on Google, just like what someone mentioned here before. My ESET antivirus didn’t give me any warnings, and my computer seems totally fine even now.GoogleESET10 yearsI reckon if folks who keep getting these calls rang the freephone number repeatedly, like 10 or 12 times, it might make the scammers think twice because of the phone bills stacking up. You could either tell them off or just stay quiet on the line - either way, they’d still get charged. But if they’re the spiteful type, probably best not to let them have your number in the first place.10 yearsJust got a call like this myself, luckily I asked the bloke for his name straight away to check with Microsoft if he was legit. He told me his name was RISHABH or something like that. When I said I’d double check and call back, he snapped “OK YOU CALL BACK, AND THANKS FOR WASTING MY TIME!!” What a cheeky git! Be careful, the popup on the site looks proper real at first, but as soon as he tells you to press "Windows key + R" together, alarm bells should ring. Just hit ALT + CTRL + DEL, open Task Manager and shut down those webpages, then reboot your computer. And seriously, make sure you’ve got top notch internet security on your device!MicrosoftRISHABH10 yearsLooks like a total scam to me. Just click the little box that says to stop the message from popping up again, and that should let you either close it or get out of it. If that number happens to be a free call, why not ring them back and mess around a bit? Don’t share any details, just waste their time so they get bored and have to come up with new scams somewhere else.10 yearsGot one of those annoying pop-ups today that wouldn’t let me close the browser at all. Had to force my computer to shut down, then rebooted and looked up the number 0800 086 9828 on Google. I’m pretty sure BT could track down whoever’s behind this scam if they wanted to.GoogleBT10 yearsI was just browsing eBay for some timber when this popped up on my screen and honestly, it startled me big time. At my age, 70, this kind of thing is really unsettling. How on earth do these people manage to get away with it??? It’s pretty scary stuff.10 yearsThis was definitely a scam. The alert suddenly showed up and looked like it had frozen my browser, which was pretty alarming at first. I ended up force quitting Chrome using the task manager and then googled the phone number - found loads of mentions from others who've seen the exact same thing. Did a thorough scan with McAfee Livesafe and everything was fine, nothing suspicious. Whatever you do, don’t ring that number. The warning looks legit, but if you pay close attention, the wording is a bit off, like someone who doesn’t speak English properly wrote it.ChromeMcAfee LiveSafe10 yearsThis number is dodgy-avoid calling it at all costs!10 yearsTotal scam, stay away from this number. My 12-year-old was really shaken up while she was working on her homework because of it. If your screen gets locked, try hovering over the close button (the x), hit enter to confirm the pop-up, then quickly click the x again - that usually shuts the page down right away.10 yearsWas working on my site when a pop-up alert popped up, looked pretty genuine at first 'cos I keep some bank info on a few pages since it’s an online store. Didn’t call the number it showed and probably won’t, especially after seeing others have this happen even when they weren’t doing anything similar. But honestly, how can we be sure this warning’s fake or not?10 yearsI got the exact same call and I just hung up straight away. Should I be worried about any accounts maybe needing to be cancelled? Not sure what to do next.10 yearsJust got that urgent warning as well, and honestly, it gave me a right scare. I’m planning to run a security check using Plusnet Protect now. Hoping nothing serious pops up!Plusnet Protect10 yearsmy internet just stopped working cause of this, and I cant seem to remove it from Explorer at all. Anyone got any tips?10 yearsA message popped up on my screen warning me about a trojan or worm trying to infect my computer. It said Windows had detected it, but I didn’t call the number given - seems like it could be a scam.10 yearsI saw this number pop up alongside a Trojan alert, but I thought it was probably fake. I never called it and ran a full scan on my PC, which didn’t turn up any viruses or malware.10 yearsGot a phone alert saying my bank's been hacked and to call this number for assistance. Seems pretty dodgy to me, like a scam or something.10 yearsI saw a warning about a Trojan that mentioned 08000869828, but I’m not risking calling it. It really seems like it could be some sort of virus. Better to stay clear, I reckon.10 yearsGot a popup warning me about a trojan, really scared me and made me worry a lot.Submit Your Own Report (0800 086 9828)
