00102

This is the number given after dialling 1471, when I ask to return the call - phone automatically dials 14713. Numerous daily calls from this number, line goes dead on picking up the phone.

I've been getting the same calls, but missing them for weeks. On the rare occasions when I've answered, there's been nobody there. However, a few minutes ago, I answered, and after a few seconds, an indian sounding guy came on the line, and knew my surname. He said he was from an online pc doctor ringing about the problem I was having with my windows operating system. I asked what problem I was supposedly having, and he hung up. Seems like the into line for some kind of scam to me.

I'm from Holland
I did not answer the call.

I've just missed a call from this number but didn't do anything about it apart from checking the number on the net - where i came across this site - re "warncol's" comment I suspect they are probably correct as my parents-in-law were nearly caught out by a scam recently (and even stayed on the phone for 2 hours until the point where they asked for the credit card!) - please see link below to gardian article (which although nearly a year old has all the details of the scam which is still taking place!!!

I know exactly what i'll be saying to these people if I do happen to answer the phone and it is them and it won't be pleasant!!!

I've had calls from this 001023456789 and 00123456789 does anyone know what it is??

Be very careful, DO NOT ever do what they tell you to do on your computer, they take it over completely and hack all the details from it.  I am receiving these calls too and like you an Indian lady was speaking to someone else and disconnected it as soon as I said hello.  It happened again this morning, but this time I did not speak first so he/she disconnected.

hallo!
Damit hier auch mal was in deutsch zu finden ist!
Diese nummern die einen da fließend in englisch vollquasseln sind gefährlich! Die wollen euer PC-System scannen und holen sich dann alle möglichen daten. bloß nicht zustimmen etc. Sie machen dann auch einen virus auf den pc...

I'd like to thank all the above commentators for their input as well as the person who placed this site. It is assuring to be able to put a telephone number that you wonder about (because they phone but do not speak) in a 'Google' search and get an answer to the mystery. FYI: I have just received a call from this number but when I answered no-one was there! I know about 6 months ago my wife received this kind of message. We did realize it was a scam.

I have recieved a call to day from this number my son answered it the man claimed to be from microsoft he got told that my son is I T technician and the phone went down .Its another scam i have had several phone calls with different numbers same scam though.

Its a girl and a guy with an indian accent. Im sure they called you and told you that they work for microsoft and your windows computer got a huge problem/virus and they will show you what your problem is and will tell you to download a remote controll program thing to controll your computer. DO NOT do what they tell you to do. after all the crap they tell you, they will ask you to buy a product from them or they will "call the police"

DONT give them ANY INFO about you or your CARDS! its a SCAM.

PS: they are idiots, you can fool them and they dont understand anything... xD

I had a phone all from this number today ,said hello and when did not answer straightaway I put the phone down and rang 1471.On all calls which do not reply straightaway I put the phone down.I find this works.If you do not recognise the number,just ignore.This has proved to be a most useful way of dealing with these calls.

also got a missed call from 00102070609255

i had one from that number too so i am now trying to find a way to block numbers which start with an 001 on my htc phone

I keep getting calls from this number as well, male Indian sounding voice said I have a problem  with my computer. I  Keep telling him I have not got a problem with my pc but I still keep getting the calls - Cant seem to get rid of them

I have been receiving calls also from 001002. Yep you all got it an Indian gentleman telling me I have a problem with my PC, yeah right. I have been in touch with Microsoft who took details and told me to ignore them as they were a scam as Microsoft would not contact me in this way. Trouble is they keep trying since New Year the have phoned 18 times but I have only managed to speak to someone once. To whom I said that I was an IT tech and Microsoft credited to which he asked my works ref number to which I did not give but asked to be removed from their database and said that I would be contacting Microsoft to report this incident. He then put the phone down. So will now wait & see how many more times they ring, but if anyone has any idead on how to stop these calls it would be appreciated.

Just had call from 00102033754042. PPI claims..

Got a call from a guy called Roger Williams (an Indian Guy) claiming to be from Microsoft.  I asked him for a number so that I could call him back but he said he they were a large call centre and that wasn't possible - If it's a genuine company it's ALWAYS possible.  Anyway I dialled 1471 after hanging up and the number he was calling from was 001002.  Thank goodness I google this and got your website - thank you so much to everyone for their feedback and for whoever set up this website - I'm going to post on Facebook to remind all my friends to be vigilant with unknown callers!!!!!

six or seven calls a day from this number - never anybody there.
or they use 04006, 01004, 001002 - bloody infuriating.
