2 calls from this number today, silence for about 5 seconds then a computerised voice says 'goodbye'!! Strange

Constant calls from this number no response when I answer

Living in the Netherlands and calles with this number!! The same they wanted me to have a seat for the computer. I refused.

In Nederland ook gebeld door dit nummer. In het engels. Ze stellen zich voor als van het departement microsoft. Als je niks doet zullen hackers je computer laten crashen?????

This scum is still at it, except this time he hung up when I asked for his telephone number - so that I could check that this 'pond life' was genuine! Again (as with others on this website) the same nonsense about calling from Windows Microsoft and telling me that my computer has generated messages to his company that my computer is having problems.

This piece of **** would have more problems if I could get hold of him to detach the nerve endings in his fingers so he could never be able to make the calls he does to piss people off!!!

Rang from this number but hung up when I answered. Obviously a dubious caller!

Im getting sick and tired of these people calling my parents, they almost believed these sicko's at the beginning but I told them they must not ever be fooled by this sort of call. I picked up the call today and played along with them for bit, then as soon as I yelled down the phone to stop calling my parents as we know they are a scam they hung up!! grrrrh makes me so mad that they can get away with this. Talk Talk want £3.25 a month to bar the number...not sure parents want the added costs at the moment.

do not respond to these numbers.  It is a scam.

The number doesn't exist because it is a fake number used via Skype/VOIP. The call comes from India.  Getting peoples names and addresses is easy.  This scam was highlighted on "You've been Scammed"., BBC1, 21st November.  These people will install spyware/malware on the computer if given remote access.  Any money they ask for to "fix" nonexistent faults seems to  be a diversion to hide what they are really doing.  The Director of Security for Microsoft stated, on the same programme, that neither Microsoft, nor its partners, would ever cold call you.  It would be a breach of their privacy rules.

it was a call to my cell phone.
