I was pressured to cough up £250 to eliminate a supposed virus, and then, just two days later, I received a call on my landline-a number I’ve never shared with anyone. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

Last night, at the unearthly hour of 3am, I answered a 45-minute call from a chap named Ron, claiming to be from Apple support. He insisted that my Mac had been infected with a virus that posed a threat to all devices connected to my IP address. He then tried to press me into coughing up £379 for a cleanup or a 'one-off' fee of £99, claiming my IP address had been compromised, even though my computer was completely switched off at the time. While he droned on, I took a moment to look up the number, only to find it’s a blatant scam. Whatever you do, steer clear of this number - it’s linked to a firm in Alabama! I called them back using my landline and told them I’d report their dodgy practices to the authorities. The chap on the line suddenly fell mute. Absolute charlatans!

I received an unexpected call at the ungodly hour of 3 AM, lasting a staggering 45 minutes. The caller was a chap named Ron, allegedly from Apple support, who claimed that my Mac was plagued by a virus that threatened all devices linked to my IP address. He insisted that I needed to fork out £300 to resolve it or a smaller fee of £80 for a quick fix. The peculiar thing is, my computer wasn’t even switched on when he made his outlandish claims about my IP being compromised! So, whilst Ron droned on, I did a bit of sleuthing and discovered that it was all a ruse. For heaven’s sake, steer clear of this number! It’s linked to a dodgy outfit based in Alabama. I couldn’t resist picking up the phone from my landline and informed them I was reporting them to the police for their nonsense. Funnily enough, the moment I said that, the bloke on the other end went completely mute. Unbelievable!

AVOID AT ALL COSTS! This is a total con. They attempted to charge me £149.99 just to regain access to my phone.

Received a call that purported to be from Apple support, but it quickly turned into a pitch for some sort of security package. It felt quite dubious, almost as if it were a con.

AVOID THIS NUMBER AT ALL COSTS!

It claims to be a virus alert, instructing you to ring Apple support through that digits. They go on to say that unless you fork out £150, your iPhone will be disconnected. What a load of nonsense!

I've had a rather alarming experience with this number. They were claiming to be from Apple support and tried to convince me that my phone had a virus. Their solution involved me handing over £100 to supposedly unlock it. It’s definitely a scam, so steer clear of this number!

I’ve heard that it’s the folks at Apple who handle unlocking devices. They quoted me a hefty £150 for their services.
