caller said he was from microsoft, claiming someone was trying to hack into my computer
originally i got a call from 02081570715 saying it was microsoft. I told the caller i wasn't interested in what they had to say and hung up. I then get a call from 01986807479... asking me why I hung up!!! I repeated that the switchboard delay suggested it was a scam, and that if I had a problem I would approach microsoft... rude!!
pretends to be calling from Microsoft about a dangerous problem they have found on my computer
Dangerous game player.
Caller claimed to be from Microsoft technical department but when I said we did not have a computer, he hang up
Called at 7:30am. A real nuisance.
Took about 20 seconds for caller to open the line - always a giveaway. Said much as previously stated by others. When I interrupted and said nothing wrong with my computer he said he was not trying to sell me anything. I closed the call at that stage..
Message left on answerphone just said 'help'. Clearly some weird sort of scam but could upset people.
Rang 12.34pm on 8/2/22. Not home and no message left. From what I read here I'm glad I wasn't home.
