Just had 5 calls from this number - Asian chap saying he needed me to get online so he could give me a refund! As if!!!
On his 2nd call I told him I was recording the conversation and that he was a scammer and please remove my number from his directory. 3 more unanswered calls so far.
For gods sake stop interrupting my day off.

just got a call from that number saying she/ asian lady/ wanted to help me with my computer. i told her to go away.

Similar call as reported, Indian Lady called Rebecca (my a**e), calling from Windows Techincal Dept telling me my computer was downloading Malware etc. I have had previous calls from this number; (the last one being about PPS) so when I answered I was prepared. I asked her which company she was calling from and she explained "windows technical dept". I then suggested that Windows was an application, not a company so Windows doesn't have a technicle dept. I asked again, which company she was calling from and she continued with her script. On insisting that she tell me her company, she then cut off.
My advice - either put the phone down or asdk them for their info - they don't like it.

Had another call from these people today.  I get numerous.Its the computer scam people, you would think by now they would have realised that people were wise to them, but no, still they keep coming.  Can nobody do anything about them?

Received call saying they were from Microsoft, told them I did not have a Computer!!

i have told these people that im not interested but they still keep calling me.

This number has called me today 8 times since 9am this morning.  The last time i answered it  got angry and told them to stop calling. We had 4 calls from the yesterday to.

Kevin called me from this number this morning wanting me to do a survey! I just said goodbye and hung up! I get a call from this number on a regular basis! Even TPS doesn't stop them!

Nothing stops them! I got my service provider to put call rejection on my line but that only stops legit call centres from calling you. I put the anonymous caller rejection on (apply = *227#  cancel = #227# check = *#227#  )  this only stops people who withhold there number including doctor surgery's and that also costs some money. Con centres don't care I just had a woman calling about my computer and I asked her witch part of the world she was from... India she said?  but I have noticed that a call centre from Plymouth sometime brakes the rules ? You can stop and take legal action these days against comments on the internet BUT you still get these people calling you to upset you're day?  SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT WITH TELEPHONE PROVIDERS!

Got a call from this number today, my son answered it but no-one there. Been registered with the TPS for years so how do they get my number. Fed up with these calls.

got call today at 11.15am still dont know what he wanted this asian sounding guy lincolnshire area

This is a scam.

My caller agent said he was called DAVID JONES from Microsoft, he had the broadest Indian accent I have heard in some time. He said that they had detected virus software on my computer.

Microsoft will not call you, they are not bothered about your computer, they've already sold you their software.

They also do NOT call up people about virus software.

These people are scammers and get your details, tel number & sometimes name and then try and get access to your computer by saying they have detected a virus or your PC has been affected by something. They then ask you for your IP address (Network address), once they have this they can then look through your PC files without you knowing.

They are looking for bank account details, usernames and passwords which they could use to access your money or online banking or anything else which they can get access to.

DO NOT GIVE THESE PEOPLE ANY INFO AND TELL THEM WHERE TO GO, OR IF YOU WNAT STRING THEM ALONG AND WASTE THEIR TIME.

I am a computer engineer and work in a support team for a large corporate bank. These scammers are
cretins, pests, the scum of the earth.

DO NOT GIVE THEM ANYTHING.

had a call from this number today let the answer machine pick up, they just hung up, l live in essex

They call me regularly and have no success. When I answer hello taxi, they hang up, when I tell them my arms aren't long enough to turn on my computer they become intrigued and ask why, to which my reply is that I am about 5 miles from home.
Today they rang offering a refund of £200, I asked why, he didn't know why so I told him that they were trying to scam me in some way he asked me if I didn't want my money then, told him no he hung up, politely.
Why do they continue, do they make money from the calls in some way?

They just called my number in Cheltenham.

Had the same call at 8 am this morning and when I spoke a robotic voice said Goodbye. Just had another call exactly the same thing I'm in Pembrokeshire.

yep got same call, 10 times today, just clicks off when I answered it.

ive just had the same call and they actually spoke this time saying they were from microsoft and that my computer as got system errors i told them OH YEAH really he then said to me in a nasty tone do you want you want your computer protecting or not madame. i said No and put the phone down. no doubt this wont be the last call...!!!...

Do NOT give your credit card details out!!!!! They are telling you that you have a problem with your PC and they need your credit card details so you can download a programme to fix the problem. DON'T FALL FOR IT PLEASE!

Got a call from this number at 7.15 this morning.  Man with incomprehensible Asian accent from "Windows Tech Support".  I get about ten of these calls a week - usually from "Out of Area" caller IDs, which I ignore.

My tactic these days (assuming I'm not too busy) is to keep them on the phone for as long as possible so that they have less time to call somebody who might actully fall for their scam.  Just asking them "can you explain all that again slowly.  I don't understand." is marvellous.  You can hear them getting more and more annoyed.  After the third repeat they usually hang up.

The only problem is that the person I am "getting my revenge on" off lives in a slum in Mumbai and is paid tuppence an hour.  They are even more of a victim that we are. The real people I want to annoy are the scumbags who run the business.

Now that they have moved to a recognized UK number surely BT should take steps to disconnect their service.  I know they will just find another number, but BT really needs to be held to account for allowing this type of criminal behaviour to go unchecked.
