Reports on phone number 08708200279
6 yearsThey claimed neighbours had been complaining about loud sexual noises coming from my place. Honestly, that's ridiculous since I'm asexual and don’t even have a partner. So no way there’d be anything like that coming from here. Also, I don’t live in a flat like they said. The voice clip was a terrible recording of a woman trying to sound awkward or embarrassed. I have no clue what that was meant to achieve. Proper strange.6 years0870 820 0722 I got in a crash recently. I understand folks say don't pick up or switch off your phone but I use mine for work and clients ring me. Definitely don’t engage with these callers.6 yearsYou can get an app where you pay for a number and then a bot makes calls. Tried it on my sis cos she did it to me first. Honestly, this app is just not funny. +44 7535 2160066 yearsSomebody called me sayin I’d crashed into their car.6 yearsGot a call from 0870 820 0248 saying I had a speeding ticket. I asked for the date, place, time, and car details. They said it was a BMW 6 series - I just laughed and said “no way, I’ve never even owned one of those.” Then the bloke said “maybe someone’s winding you up” and just hung up!6 yearsThis number called me earlier sayin I was catchin smoke from weed or maybe my neighbour was 😂6 yearsSome bloke said I’d bought something online and asked if it was me. I’d never even come across the site he mentioned. It was odd, cos he said my phone number was what they’d used to pay £220. Asked me to confirm if it was really me.7 yearsHe rang me up twice, first time he was asking why I had phoned his girlfriend, then on the second call he said he’s a pizza delivery bloke.7 yearsSCAM ALERT! Some bloke with a posh English accent claimed he's been getting calls. Best to just block this number.7 yearsYeah, it’s definitely a scam. This time, some bloke claiming to be my neighbour said I was mooching off his WiFi. I told him to come over for a scrap, and he just shouted “free WiFi now” down the phone. Like seriously, why would a neighbour ring me from an 0870 number? Total nonsense.England10 yearsHonestly, I was daft enough to let them have full control of my PC!!! Luckily, I called my own Norton tech who sorted everything out remotely. Ended up paying a premium rate for a 41 min call. And I usually think I’m pretty sharp too. Ow!10 yearsits a con, dont bother calling that number10 yearsI noticed this number popping up on my Facebook, asserting that my device is infected with a virus. It went on to say that all my emails, credit card details, and photos could be compromised, urging me to call it right away as it supposedly belongs to a Microsoft engineer. Quite dubious, if you ask me!Microsoft10 yearsI almost got caught by this as well - clicked on a Facebook link about Sean Connery. I did ring the number but only briefly because even though the screen had Microsoft logos and looked quite genuine, I got really suspicious when they asked to control my computer remotely. I refused and ended the call right away, then turned off my PC and restarted it later, and everything seems fine now. So yeah, I’m with everyone else on this one - be careful!FacebookSean ConneryMicrosoft10 yearsThis number has cut me off from Facebook, it seems like yet another scam is brewing. I’d advise against calling it, as it’ll end up costing you. What a bunch of low-life scoundrels!Facebook10 yearsMy laptop showed a message sayin it was blocked and to call a number. I ignored it, turned it off and on again, and now it seems fine. Def don’t call that number!Microsoft10 yearsI clicked on that Sean Connery link as well and got this message with a voice saying something like - Microsoft - you've got a harmful virus - we need to lock your PC to protect our servers, yada yada - and ticking the box to close it did nothing. Just like the person above, I just turned my laptop off and on after a few mins. Everything’s fine now. Don’t be fooled by this.Sean ConneryMicrosoft10 yearsI clicked on a random link on Facebook about Sean Connery’s passing or something like that, and then I got this message, both in text and voice, saying it was from Microsoft warning my computer was infected with spyware and my bank info could be at risk. It told me to ring their toll free number right away. I knew straight away it wasn’t free, it was a premium number, so I just shut down and rebooted my laptop.FacebookSean ConneryMicrosoft10 yearsI was on the phone with them for more than 45 minutes, and they kept asking for £229. They somehow managed to get control of my laptop. I asked if they could get into my bank account to take money, and they said no. After that, I told them I wasn't paying and hung up. I then rang my bank and they blocked my online banking. I also took my laptop to be wiped clean and have new security installed. I was really daft, but they’re quite clever at making you believe your computer’s in danger.10 yearsGot the same warning on Friday, at first they asked for £300, then dropped to £200 for some quick repair, and finally £90 as a one-time service fee. I just switched off the computer and since then everything's been working perfectly. Best thing to do is just ignore the message and cut off the computer connection.10 yearsIt's definitely a con, best to just not answer.10 yearsThis afternoon I got a message pop up on my PC and rang the number, ended up chatting for about an hour and a half about fixing my computer. Then they wanted £199.99 plus VAT for some software to sort it out. I said no way, can’t afford that sort of cash. I’ve now switched off my computer and unplugged it from the internet. Is it safe to turn it back on and reconnect it again now?10 yearsGot a message pop up on my PC from number 44-870-820-0279 sayin I needed to call Microsoft about a nasty virus they supposedly found. The message warned me to call within 5 minutes or else my computer would get disabled. I just shut everything down, waited half an hour, and then turned it back on - it worked perfectly fine with no problems at all.MicrosoftSubmit Your Own Report (0870 820 0279)
