I didn't answer the call as I don't know anyone from Perth, so I called them back but they just hung up on me....

Yeah Microsoft technical department sounds so authentic...not, what a dufus. Do they think we were borne yesterday?
I just got back after being away for a week and had to wade through all the pest calls but now I can place a block on them, I bought one of the Telstra Call Guardian phones so I'll be putting a block on about half a dozen pest numbers. Thing is they must be aware of number blocking phones now so they keep getting new numbers for themselves...I think.

A male called twice sat 17/12/2016 second time Mike advised me that he works with microsoft and that my computer is being hacked due to an issue with my microsoft server. I advised Son in law is a IT tech and I will get him to look at the issue. He left this number and stated he was in Perth , WA.

usually get silent calls from this company. very persistent, threaten to block your computer from the internet. be careful it is a scam just hang up not worth your time

It's a scam

This sound familiar? Hello sir I am Sam I am calling from the technical department it is about your computer. Me: someone called the other day about a computer but I told them I don't have one. Hello Hello aw they hung up.

Telstra

They just called me and I remained silent after answering 'hello'.
A male voice answered, repeatedly calling 'hello?' before disconjnecting.

Had the phone call today.

As long as they keep ringing, I won't be answering. When will they ever learn or are they just dumb & dumber day by day!!!!!

I was in hospital for a week and my phone shows that this number phoned me twice a day for 5 days. I am still vey sore and take a long time to get to the phone but these people keep persisting, so sick of it.

Rang again today, did not answer again.

Received a call from this number, did not progress too much with conversation. But interestingly, the guy on the other side new my fake name I used to register on a couple of Australian web sites. Told him he's got the wrong number.

I have my short and sweet answering machine on....and they never bother to speak and the calls have diminished to approx 4 a week instead of 4 a day! Hopefully it will diminish completely....but then, thats like wishing for a Ferrari for Christmas....haha.

Just received a call from 'David from Windows Server Department' who so kindly offered to rid my computer of viruses

I thought the GOV Collecting our METADATA was to STOP scammers ! Wht a JOKE ...they collect our private info and leave it RIGHT Open for scammers to keep infiltrating .......

scammers based in Adelaide.

This is my third call this week. They must think that people are stupid, sadly unsuspecting people fall for these scams. I asked for the number so I could call them back.

Yes I pay Telstra for a private number!!!
Just got a call from this number, I told her I don't have a computer so F OFF!!! She hung up real quick.
I feel sorry for people that may fall for these scammers.

Call on my private home line, a number ONLY given to my parents and on the do not call register. No name given, but told they were the computer technician and asked me if I was the primary user of the computer... unfortunately for them I'm an idiot. Nice try scammers. Forwarding details to the police.
