This number has been ringing me up to about 8 times every single day for three days straight. I’ve got caller ID, so I was ignoring it till today. Finally answered and it was a woman with an Asian accent. Told her quite nicely to piss off, and since then, no more calls.

I received a call on my home phone around half six this evening. As soon as I picked up, all I got was dead air, so I ended the call. Unfortunately, my phone doesn't have a caller ID feature, which means I have to actually answer to see who's on the other end.

Received a call from that number today, but I opted not to pick up. Just yesterday, I got calls from 0017675020342 and 01270877349, and I didn't answer those either. It's getting quite bothersome, especially since my 88-year-old mother is the only one at home, and she feels obliged to rush to the phone just in case it's an important call. Thankfully, she knows to steer clear of those pesky numbers.

I received a call on my home phone from this number, and, without my specs on, I mistakenly greeted the caller with “goedenavond.” Immediately after that, the line went completely silent. Quite the curious experience, I must say!

I received a call on my landline today from this number. Curiously, I also got a ring from a number that appeared as just a solitary '0'. It's quite apparent these are some Microsoft con artists, so I didn’t bother picking up. I’m honestly quite grateful for this website that lets me look up unfamiliar numbers. It really spares me a load of bother!

Didn’t pick up because the number looked really dodgy, and I’ve heard from others it can be dodgy or even not nice at all. Normally, I always look at the caller ID before answering, but this time I forgot. I’m pretty cautious and don’t usually bother with unknown numbers. Probably scammers or some strange people ringing.

I recently received a call from this number, but there was nothing on the line-just silence. Then, a robotic voice piped up and said “bye.” I decided to dial 1471, and lo and behold, this number popped up. It’s not the first time I’ve had this happen; it seems to be a recurring nuisance!

Recently, I received a rather dodgy phone call from a call centre based in India, purportedly representing Windows Tech Support. When I inquired how I could assist him, he insisted that they needed to verify my computer. I promptly informed him that I exclusively use an Apple Mac. He was quite persistent, claiming to have my computer ID at hand. I then asked him for his name, but he outright refused to disclose it. After ending the conversation, I immediately contacted Action Fraud (UK). They've provided me with a crime reference number, which is now being forwarded to the Fraud Detection Unit of South Yorkshire Police. If anyone else encounters these types of calls, I highly recommend reaching out to Action Fraud (UK) at 0300 123 2040.

Got a call from an Indian bloke who said his name was "John," but the moment I told him I wasn’t interested in any dodgy offers, he just hung up. Typical scam caller behaviour.

Received a rather unwelcome call from this number bright and early today. The caller began by inquiring whether I owned a computer. Upon confirming, she claimed they had detected some dire issues with my Windows system, warning me that my computer was on the brink of crashing! Naturally, I pressed for more information and asked for the name of the company, but the operator-who appeared to have an Indian accent-was rather dodgy, only mentioning something about 'technical services'. I swiftly informed her that I wasn’t keen and hung up the line. Interestingly, I’ve already had a similar dodgy call yesterday, albeit from a different number (001441518080315). It’s incredibly frustrating! I truly hope there’s a way to shut down these bothersome scam calls once and for all.

I picked up and there was just silence on the other end. But as soon as I hung up and rang 1471, my line was back to normal, so it didn’t block my phone or anything. I guess my number was just one of many the computer dialed at once, and since I wasn’t the first to pick up, it ended up being dead air. Feels pretty dodgy - likely some sort of scam call.

Over the past three days, my family and I have received several calls from the number 099999999 on our landline, including two before 11 AM today. I suspect these are scam attempts. The most recent caller barely articulated before abruptly ending the call. It's maddening to deal with this invasion of our privacy at home.

My grandfather received a call claiming there was a sum of money waiting for him from his PPI. Just another dodgy scam, if you ask me.

When he mentioned he was phoning from 'Windows', it instantly clicked that it was a scam call, especially since I’m employed by a substantial firm with its own tech support team. I decided to have a bit of sport with him, so I pretended to be busy and put him on hold not once, but twice, claiming I was booting up my computer and then signing in. Eventually, I thought it would be amusing to tease him, so I asked whether his call regarding 'Windows' was about double or single glazing. He wasn’t amused and snapped back, ‘Just do me a favour...go get f***ed, you mother f***er!’ I couldn’t help but chuckle!

I had a rather alarming phone call from this number earlier today. The caller claimed that my computer was on the verge of crashing! He identified himself as being from "Online Tech Support," supposedly located in London, and provided me with a callback number: 1800 600 1313. However, as soon as I requested his contact details, he abruptly hung up on me. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!
