Got a call really late at night.

My mum just had the same dodgy call, someone pretending to be from "Microsoft" and said his name was Michael. They’ve rung our place a couple of times before, but this time my mum answered and almost got caught out by the scam. It’s clear this con artist is still at it! Sadly, not everyone can spot these fake calls straight away.

Lol, as soon as I said I didn’t own a computer, he just ended the call. Didn’t sound legit at all, just some bloke claiming to be from Microsoft with no proper ID, saying I’d been hacked.

I've had about three calls just today from a guy with an Asian accent saying he's from Microsoft and warning me my PC will get hacked within a few hours. He asked me to press some “Microsoft key” and type “cmd” or something, but I knew straight away it was dodgy and hung up. First time his number didn’t even show, so I asked for it and he gave me 1-800-543-8610. Next call he was more aggressive, telling me again I'd be hacked for sure. When I searched that number, lots of results in Chinese popped up. The last call I got showed number 1-905-385-5083 and Googling it brought me to this very page that confirms it’s a scam. Happened on 26th January 2015 around 5.30pm.

These scammers have been ringing me nonstop as well... sometimes I mess about by speaking in a fake French accent just to see how long they'll keep chatting. Other times, I put on a terrible Chinese accent and count how many times they ask "what?" in confusion. On occasion, I'll act like a frail old person, pretending to follow their instructions, then tell them it's not working at all. Once they even tried to convince me they were legit by putting a “police officer” on the line - only guess what? It was the same bloke with a dreadful Asian accent pretending to be a woman! Honestly, I find it way more satisfying to wind them up than to just hang up straight away.

Some bloke with dodgy English phoned me, claiming he was from Microsoft, warning my computer was hacked. I told him I was busy with guests and he asked when he could ring again. I said everything was fine but he kept saying it was really crucial to stop the hackers. The guy was surprisingly polite and wrapped up with a cheery “OK mum, thank you.”

Got a call from someone called Michael, claiming to be from Microsoft, saying my computer was hacked. Told him I don't even own a computer. He started shouting loads of bad words at me. I ended the call quickly. Definitely felt like a scammer, probably an immigrant trying to trick people.

Got a ring from someone called Steve Adams around 4:30 in the afternoon, said he was from Microsoft and my computer had been compromised. I calmly told him to buzz off, no swearing, and he just shouted a rude word back at me before hanging up.

My 92 year old Granddad got a call from an Indian gent claiming his computer was being used in a scam. He wasn’t having it and quickly hung up, then phoned the police to check what to do next. They connected him straight to the Fraud Squad who have now logged that number in their system!

Does anyone have tips for making these callers quit? They've rung me about ten times already and every single time I tell them to remove me from their list. Just now, the bloke actually told me to whip it out and chop it off! Honestly, it’s getting completely ridiculous...

This number rang me up really early, about 7 in the morning, pretending to be from Microsoft tech support. They said they’d been watching my computer and found it’s been hacked. I started asking loads of questions like how exactly they were monitoring my PC, what my IP address was, and other tech stuff just to trip them up. After a bit, I noticed the person’s friendly accent suddenly shifted and didn’t sound so Asian anymore. Then I told them I wasn’t having any of it, said I’d hang up and ring Microsoft myself to check if any of it was true.

I’ve received several calls from this number and others, all saying they’re from Microsoft’s Computer Support team. I just ignore them, but I do report it straight to Microsoft. Apparently, they’ve begun cracking down on these fraudsters legally. Honestly, if you get these kinds of calls, definitely report them to Microsoft. They’ve got the means and motivation to shut these scams down, but they need to know how widespread it really is.

This morning the same number rang us again, claiming our computer was compromised. I’m planning to check if there’s a place we can report this kind of scam to help put a stop to it.

I reckon this was one of those dodgy "Microsoft" scams... had two blokes and a lady all chatting away, trying to sneak into my PC. They already had my phone number and postcode, then started pushing for my name and other personal bits so they could remotely hack my laptop. Luckily, I managed to dodge them this time. Watch out for these lot!

Got a call about computer problems too, and the person on the line had an Asian accent. It reminded me of that scam the BBC South Today talked about towards the end of last year. Definitely felt dodgy.

They phoned right at 7am sharp on the 7th of January, then again a bit after 8am the next day. It’s a bit creepy because nobody ever calls our landline apart from my elderly father-in-law. The first time, a man with an Indian accent told me I had a Microsoft emergency. When I said something like “I find that odd, I only use Apple products,” he just hung up. The next morning, it was a woman with the same kind of accent, and before she said anything, I recognised the number and asked if it was another Microsoft emergency. She said yes. I wasn’t exactly polite after that, but I made it clear again that I only use Apple and they shouldn’t bother calling again. Are these just random calls? I can imagine my dad-in-law getting tricked by them since he’s hopeless with tech. Do they ring so early purposely, to catch you off guard?

Yesterday, I got a call from this number, a guy who said his name was Steve but had an Indian accent. He told me he was with Microsoft and said my laptop was supposedly being used to view illegal porn. It all seemed pretty dodgy to me, so I decided to check out where the call came from. Turns out, it’s definitely a scam. Just thought I’d warn others about the kind of call this is.

I've gotten calls from this number four times already. The first time I was actually able to pick up was this morning around 8:15. It was an Asian lady saying her name was Nina and she was ringing from Microsoft. After seeing what others had said about this number, I realised it was just another annoying scam. I didn't let her get a word in, told her if she called one more time I'd report her to the cops. She just ended the call after that.

Calls come through at all sorts of hours, always with a Middle Eastern accent. Tonight he rang again, claiming to be from Microsoft support about issues with my Windows system. I bluntly told him he should find a proper job and that he’s just trying to scam me. When he insisted he was from Microsoft, I cut him off, told him to stop calling and called him a complete disgrace. He actually started swearing at me, clearly really pissed off. I just told him again to get a real job and stop taking advantage of honest folks. He got so angry he kept dropping nasty language at me, which I just laughed off - that made him even more furious and he finally hung up on me for once. It felt pretty satisfying to waste a bit of his time.

0019053855083 This morning, I got a call from someone with what sounded like an Asian accent claiming to be from Microsoft’s fraud tech support team. They told me my PC was hacked and asked me to type a link into the search bar so they could fix it. I ended up keeping them on the line for about 7 and a half minutes - imagine the cost from that 001 number! Anyone managed to hold their scammers longer than that? Maybe we should make it a challenge to see who can waste the most of their time and money. Who knows, we might just bankrupt the lot!
