Microsoft tech‑support scam calls – what to do!
Summary — +18593555275
Expert Opinion
Actually, these calls are classic tech‑support scams. Scammers spoof a Kentucky area code and immediately claim to be from Microsoft, asking whether you speak English before dropping the line or pushing bogus fixes. Caller ID spoofing lets them appear local, while the scripted pitch exploits fear of viruses. Never grant remote access, never share personal data, and hang up the moment the request sounds suspicious. Verify any alleged issue by calling the official Microsoft support number you find on their website, not the one they provide. Report the number to the FTC and your carrier’s spam‑block service to help curb the abuse. Also, enable call‑blocking features on your smartphone, and consider registering your line with the National Do‑Not‑Call Registry, though scammers often ignore it. Keeping your operating system and antivirus up to date reduces the chance of genuine infections, so you’re less likely to fall for these tricks.

Ein Mann hat mich auf Englisch angerufen und über Windows und Computer gesprochen, aber er versteht kein Deutsch, was merkwürdig ist, wenn man bedenkt, dass er eine deutsche Telefonnummer gewählt hat. Es war nicht möglich, herauszufinden, wer genau dahinter steckt

Hallo, definately a fake microsoft suport caller, dont pick up

A call from 'Winchester KY' was received at 9:45pm Eastern time, which seems excessively late; it may have been blocked by a free service
At 10:20 P.M. Central, a call was made, violating the law that prohibits such calls after 9:00 P.M.; the caller, with a heavy Indian accent, falsely claimed to be from the Windows Technical Department and promptly hung up when I threatened to record the conversation.
During the evening of 9:51pm EST, recieved a call and spoke with somone briefly before they hung up, they proceded to call back 3 times, i informed them i would be contactin Microsoft directly and requested they dont call back, subseqently i send a scam report to Microsoft, every one else should definalty do the same.
It's essential to understand that the DNC list does not completely block calls, as there are exemptions, and illicit activities often disregard laws. A politician who claims otherwise would be misleading the public.
The do not call list has proven ineffective, as I receive 4 to 10 daily calls from these scammers, who seem to be aware of their ability to bypass the system.
This number is clearly a scam number
At 9:40 pm, I received an unwanted call from this number, with the caller claiming my computer's windows were at risk. I expressed my displeasure at the late hour and asked to be removed from their list before ending the call. As I'm on the do-not-call list, it's frustrating to continue receiving such calls.
Over the past 2 years, alot of peoples has been recieving phone calls from these scammers who claim to be from Microsoft, even tho i have a Mac, they wont leave me alown
A call came after 10 p.m.; I didn’t pick up but searched the number online and found aggressive telemarketing

Living in Germany, it was surprising to receive a call from a Kentucky-based number, which ended abruptly with an automated goodbye message.
