4 complaints - Birmingham
Had a call from 01212773019 at about 11:30 am on 14 December from someone saying he was from the Microsoft Customer Service Department and saying I had a problem with my computer. I said how grateful I was that Bill gates had asked the guy to phone me and that it wasn't necessary because I'm a Systems Development Engineer and can fix my own problems. He then hung up. I called the number back immediately using the 141 prefix and an automated message said the number was not in service. Funny that....
Same a Brian's report really. BUT.... PICKED UP A REALLY USEFUL TIP FROM A TELECOMS PRO as I reprted this scam to various official bodies; NEXT TIME YOU GET A SILENT CALL.... DON'T HANG UP... HIT THE # KEY ON YOUR PHONE REPEATEDLY..... FRIES THE AUTO-DIAL SOFTWARE of whoever's calling you
Three silent calls in one day.They're a bloody nuisance.
Call supposedly from "Microsoft Computer Maintenance Department". Caller had "Indian" accent and seemed to have to work hard at speaking English.
