Reports on phone number 5169909988
11 yearsToday I got a ring from a man claiming to be from a Windows support team, saying they’d been getting error messages from my PC. He kept shifting his story depending on what I said and kept asking me questions. When he asked me to switch my computer on, I refused and asked if there was a number I could call for help instead. As soon as I said that, he just cut the call. Don’t ever let this bloke near your computer - it’s dodgy business.11 yearsThis number has been ringing me numerous times every single day. I answered once to ask them to stop, but there was nobody on the line. They don’t leave any voicemail either, just keep on ringing...really frustrating!11 yearsI got a call from someone telling me to hit the windows key + R so they could log into my PC and control it remotely. Don’t fall for it, they’ll just mess up your computer. Stay away from that sort of thing!11 yearsi’ve reported this number to the NY Do Not Call Registry because i keep getting loads of calls with the same rubbish lines. every time, i tell them to stop calling and put me on their do not call list before hanging up.NY Do Not Call Registry11 yearsHow come the phone companies let these fraudsters and hackers get away with it? Also, if you try to ring back a number that shows as Out of Service, how’s that even possible? Seems a bit odd to me.11 yearsPretty much the same story here. Some bloke rang me claiming he was from Microsoft, saying there was a problem with my computer. I asked him which one, and he said the laptop. I told him I don’t even use a PC, I’ve got a Mac. Then he came back with "Oh, you mean the Mac laptop." Totally daft! He kept going on about how Macs can’t spot viruses like PCs do and said my drivers were being "eaten up" by malware or something. I told him I’d just had my machine sorted recently and he got all huffy, saying, "By a local person? Why didn’t you just ring Apple then? You’ve got their number!" Acting like he knows it all… what a joke.MicrosoftApple11 yearsGot three calls just yesterday from the same number, and it’s not the first time either. I picked up once and it was some bloke with a really thick accent trying to chat about my computer. The last one came through at 9:51 in the evening. Absolutely crazy.11 yearsGot a call right at 9:16 in the evening, so annoying!11 yearsThese calls keep coming non stop, people wanting to get into my computer. Definitely a scam, so annoying!11 yearsGot the same old scam call again, some bloke claiming he's from Microsoft wanting to talk to whoever uses the computer. I asked if he was having a laugh, which made him proper annoyed, so I just ended the call. They ring me about three times daily, and whenever I don't answer, the voicemail only picks up the sound of fax tones.Microsoft11 yearsMate, just hang on a bit... I messed about with it for like 5 minutes, twisting every question back at ‘em. Act clueless, honestly it’s a laugh.11 yearsThis number keeps buzzing me, like 5 times a day or more and it’s driving me mad. I tried answering twice but noone was there. Even put it on the block list but still they keep coming through, sometimes even late at night around 8:15PM. Dunno how they are still reaching me!11 yearsYesterday this number rang me twice but I ignored it since I’d just been targeted by a scammer the evening before from a different number. When I called this one back, it said the number wasn’t valid. Today they tried again - on the second call I actually answered, and they claimed to be from Microsoft, talking about issues with my computer. I told them I knew it was a scam and that they shouldn’t bother calling me again, then ended the call.Microsoft11 yearsThey keep ringing me nonstop, like every single day. I'm just gonna block the number.11 yearsI honestly don’t get what this bloke’s on about, and now he’s ringing me up first thing at 8 in the morning! Seriously, when will he give it a rest? So annoying!11 yearsThis number won’t stop ringing my phone, morning till night! I’ve been ignoring it cause I don’t trust it, but it’s getting super annoying. Had a quick look online and found out this guy’s actually some kinda hacker. Gonna block him for good now...11 yearsI just got a ring from this number, and it really felt like one of those phishing scams. The guy was telling me to get on my computer so he could “fix” my Microsoft drivers or something. He said he was with some company called Peoples Computer Partners or something like that. He kept asking for details about my system. When I kept asking what he actually wanted, he just kept insisting he was connected to Microsoft partners. Eventually, he asked me what key was next to my ctrl key on the keyboard. After I didn’t give him any info, he finally gave up and hung up. He also tried to get my name so he could check it somehow. Totally dodgy.MicrosoftThe Peoples ComputerSubmit Your Own Report (051 6990 9988)
