My husband was using his laptop and suddenly received the same message to call 1800 875 394 as Microsoft will help... my husband called as I was surprised to hear a curry trying to coach hubby to give him remote access. Thank you I used my iPad to check the number and your website saved our laptop.. Thank You for the warning... thank you

They blocked my computer too.

A definite scam . When I rang this number , I was asked to press Microsoft home button plus letter R which opened up a dialogue box where I typed whatever they said . Then it took me to another dialogue box where I had to provide a 6 digit number . They provided me the number which downloaded a new application . When I ran the application these scammers came online . All of a sudden , I had a feeling that it was scam . So I closed the computer . Still don't know if they managed to get any of my bank details or personal information from my computer

This so call toll number popped up and stated that my computer had been blocked. I just called this number, Indian accent. Can't understand and don't really get how they can help me, so I went to search for proper Microsoft Tech Support, with the live chat with them, they told me this is a scam. Very dangerous!

I did open sex website, and 1800 875 394 on the screen ,speak on and request you to call Microsoft helpdesk , I called, the Indan wants to connect to my pc , before I push centre , I search 1800 875 394 on Google , and I have been saved. Thanks google

1800 875 394: Re-routed numbers to a nasty and sophisticated call centre based in India that pretends to be working as or for Microsoft support team.( Apple computers are an easy target). They are FAKE, FAKE, FAKE. Those scums are installing malwares and viruses from popups or with bundles software as Adobe Flash. More important, Adult sites are 98% to be found as their favourite way of passing their viruses . Your internet browser suddenly freeze and your computer is frozen. Best way is to shut your computer down ( by pressing power button for 20 to seconds or to make sure unplug Your computer). Fear and stress will take over with messages saying that your computer has had a virus attack. Restart with a clean browser cache and a run of a antivirus if you have one. Talk to someone (to your local computer guy) if you are not reassured or still in distress.This is a free phone call number, that’s targeting Australian audience. Note that nothing has changed in your computer system but check if some extensions had been added to your browser.If you do a lot of surfing the net, always run Task Manager that can stop any further damage. Do not let those curry scumbags win.( any clues where you did get that popup or blue screen?)

Had this happen last night to my laptop and like an idiot called the number -they are very clever and gave quite the sales pitch, wanted access and the computer was frozen -I decided to do some research before agreeing to let them "fix it", as paying 500$ seemed very fishy, and they said it was on my own risk and basically turned my computer off. A restart and going though one of the many online computer fix guides related to rid oneself of this phone number scam solved the problem.

Definite scam....I naively rang the number and got the Indian call centre and then even naiver still let them help me and they appear to have got into my computer...DO NOT CALL THIS NUMBER.

Definite scam number, web browser popup saying facebook etc credentials have been stolen and to ring this number.
