Beware Microsoft‑style tech‑support phone scams!
Summary — +442031988103
Expert Opinion
Take care, these calls are classic tech‑support scams impersonating Microsoft or Windows. They usually claim your computer is infected, request remote access, or ask for personal details, and will disappear the moment you challenge them. Never grant control of your device, and do not reveal your name, address or bank information. Hang up promptly, note the number and report it to Action Fraud or the Phone Preference Service. Consider blocking the caller on your handset and using a call‑screening app. If the call persists, contact your genuine service provider directly using official contact details rather than any number the caller supplies.
