Reports on phone number 08000903280
9 yearsGot a call from some dodgy bloke, sounded like a scammer. Just a random guy trying to con me. Don’t bother answering if they ring you, best to ignore and move on. Trying to ditch these types for good!10 yearsSomebody rang claiming to be from the Windows tech support saying my PC was hacked. They offered to fix it and set up security for £149, but I told them no thanks. Now, it seems they’ve locked my computer and I can’t use it at all.10 yearstotal rip off! they’re listed as an advertising firm on companies house. you get these dodgy pop-ups on your pc saying call this number NOW! dont be fooled by that. john cooper, who claims to be a “tech expert,” is really just out for your cash. they ask for £299.00 to set up remote access software so they can get into your machine whenever they want. i rang them up and called their bluff. definitely avoid and watch what links you click on!Companies HouseJohn Cooper10 yearsA warning popped up claiming our computer was infected, and the window just wouldn’t close. My wife ended up calling the number they gave, and they somehow persuaded her to let them access the laptop remotely. They were connected for about half an hour, and I’m not sure what they could’ve altered or installed. I've since run McAfee and even done a factory reset. Fingers crossed that's cleared it all, but honestly, we’re probably going to ditch this laptop soon.McAfee10 yearsHey, I wasn’t really sure what was happening at first. Some bloke said his name was Jack Cooper and my PC showed an IP address 702 048 446. The weird thing is, he put a pin 6643 in my computer and now it’s locked so I can’t use it. His voice was really odd, like he had some sort of voice box issue. When I told him if I found where he was, I’d give him a good hiding, he kept going, asking for my email. Then he said two hackers from the US had got into my system and tried to sell me a fix for £699. I told him that was daft, my PC didn’t cost that much. He went on about having all my info, so I told him to jog on. Next day, he rang me back about five times and warned all my devices would get affected. But I checked my iPad and phone and they were totally fine.Jack CooperStates10 yearsJust got a call from some woman named Stella, trying to scam me out of £149. When I asked for her manager, she said it was Mr Smith - total rubbish! Don’t fall for it, don’t answer or give them any card info.StellaSmith10 yearsOne easy trick to annoy them is to use another device than the one the message showed up on. Make sure it’s not hooked up to the internet. Give them a ring and act totally clueless. If they ask if you’re online, just say yes. Let them ramble on for ages. After a while, tell them you’re actually using a Mac. This will eat up their time and cash. Just make sure you never get online or install any software they suggest.10 yearsThis is a classic scam where they claim your computer is infected with a virus, then lock it up and demand a big ransom. I work in IT and just spent half an hour messing around with these scammers, trying to stop others from getting caught out. If you’ve been tricked, turn off your computer right away, unplug it from the power, then boot up in safe mode without internet. Run a bunch of different antivirus and anti-spyware tools, do a system restore, and you should be alright. It’s awful how they target people who don’t know much about computers.10 yearsComplete scam, stay away no matter what. Just so you know, your device isn’t infected with any virus!10 yearsTotally scammers, no doubt! I told them straight up, and then they went and called me nuts!10 yearsRight so, should i just totally ignore the message? Or is it bad that they managed to get a pop-up on my screen like that?10 yearsa mate of mine got caught up in this old scam. its crazy how many still get tricked by it. he couldnt get into his computer and they wanted him to shell out like £250. lucky for him, he didnt give them any money and just did a reset on the machine.10 yearsLoads of pop ups suddenly started appearing on my laptop, warning me that it was in danger of being hacked and telling me to ring a certain number. Is it likely that my computer’s infected with a virus?10 yearsI came across 0800 090 3285, which seems to be linked to that same website, bc.vc/WQgH6ax. At the start, you get flashed with pictures of girls in pretty revealing clothes. After that, your screen locks up, and they push you to call that number. Really dodgy stuff.10 yearsSuch a frustrating scam call!10 yearsOut of nowhere, a virus warning popped up on my screen telling me to call this number right away to fix it. When I rang, the guy on the line asked for my age and name. He claimed to be Jim Orbit from Microsoft and insisted on a £70 payment to remove the virus. I wasn’t having any of it and said I’d ring him back instead.Jim OrbitMicrosoft10 yearsI didn't receive any call on my phone, it showed up only on my computer screen.10 yearsMy laptop suddenly started playing the same voice message over and over again. Does anyone know what’s going on? What’s the best way to stop it?10 yearsDoes anyone know how to get rid of this annoying pop-up on my screen? It just won't disappear no matter what I try. Cheers!10 yearsI was pretty sure that number 0800-090-3280 belonged to somewhere in Turkey, but now I’m not so certain. They had this code or something like be.velwqgh6ax with them too.Turkey10 yearsLooks like these scammers are operating out of Turkey. They keep sending links like bc.vc/WQgH6ax.Turkey10 yearsDefinetly a scam call, looks like they are trying to hack your info. Beware, dont trust it!10 yearsSo this weird virus alert showed up on my laptop, saying I should call this number to fix it. I called, they asked for my name and how old I am, then just told me to turn off my computer and ended the call. It felt a bit odd, especially the questions. Do you reckon they could find me with that info? I'm a bit anxious now.10 yearsGot a call from some dodgy lot saying my hard drive was gonna get wiped in five mins. They said they were from Windows, but it just sounded super fake. Probably a scam with those annoying pop-up ads.10 yearsI got a call from this number claiming there's a virus on my computer and telling me to ring them back. Turns out, it was just some scam by people from India. Don’t trust them!India10 yearsGot a popup saying my hard drive was totally infected and would get wiped in 5 minutes, with this number to ring for help. Turns out it was just a load of rubbish. Work in IT, so I knew straight away it was a scam. Don’t fall for it - only call if you’re up for a laugh!10 yearsWatch out, this number is linked to scams! They put backdoors and all kinds of nasty viruses on computers - I've fixed loads of customers' PCs because of them. Seriously, don’t answer if they ring again! If you can’t block the number, at least don’t pick up.10 yearsThere's this bunch calling claiming to be from Microsoft Support but they're actually scammers using something called tdss killer. They won't tell you anything about their real company. I've called them a few times just for laughs - since they cover 0800 calls, I reckon it’s worth winding them up and keeping them on the phone as long as you can. From what I found, they’re located in Maharashtra, India. If you fancy getting back at them, their direct number seems to be 02525 648926. Give it a go!MicrosoftMaharashtraIndia10 yearsSome dodgy folks seem to be using TDSS Killer for their scams.TDSS KillerSubmit Your Own Report (0800 090 3280)
