Andycarer reported unknown with the number 02031291891 as Harassment calls
I keep receiving calls from these scammers, but don't answer them as I have entered the number in Caller Display, which now shows the calls as 'Junk'. What I can't understand, though, is why the authorities concerned have still not withdrawn this number, when it is a UK one? Presumably these heartless scammers, together with other cold callers and the like, have not cared for Alzheimer's sufferers and others who live alone. Otherwise, they might have an understanding of the enormous upset and distress such calls cause. Perhaps in a future life, they will be on the receiving end.

Libby reported microsoft windows! with the number +442031291891 as Harassment calls
They keep ringing to say my computer is sending error messages. They says they are microsoft but i know this is not true. They give me instructions and then pass me on to someone in their tech dept. Then i get more instructions. What i do is act thick and waste their time. The last one i kept on the phone till he required my IP address and that is when i broke it to him that i was just stringing him a long and then i picked up my faithfull whistle and blasted it down the phone till he hung up. In the past i have found them to be aggressive, rude, and threatening, this i dont take to heart and will give as good as i get! If I havent got the time to mess them about i either blow my whistle straight away

Stomp-a-scammer reported unknown with the number +442031291891 as Harassment calls
I've been getting calls from these scammers for close on 6 months now, quite often twice a day. I tried reporting them to BT's nuisance call bureau and they tried to sell me a phone that block international calls!!! It's strange how BT outsources a lot of it's services to India , (BT customer services, etc) and the scamming calls are also coming from India? I've even had one of these scammers say he was with BT Internet, instead of the usual "I'm from Windows services" or "I'm from Microsoft Windows services". If I don't get a caller i.d. on my phone, I just pick up the receiver and hang up straight away now :(
childofthestones replied 4/2/14, 1:12 PMI agree - I only started to get these calls when I changed my service provider to BT; now I get 3-4 calls per day from a variety of numbers, but all of whom (when they are not silent) are from people with heavy Indian accents. When I have managed to speak to any of them they say they are checking my broadband service or whether my PC is working correctly. When further questioned, they become rude and hang up. Obviously a scam.Slim Shandy replied 4/4/14, 6:56 AMIm a recent new BT customer and as soon as I got my new number connected, which was ex-directory, I strated receiveing numerous calls from sales persons and people hanging up or asking for a person by name that I'd never heard off then they tried to speak to me instead. I had noticed these nuisance call blocker phones from BT and it made me think that perhaps I was receiving these calls on purpose so I would buy one of BT nuisance call blocker phones. I did actually buy one and they work really well. -
Cadbury reported number 02031291891 as Alan uk accident
I've been receiving missed calls from this number but decided to answer this evening as its a little late for companies to normally call I was intrigued.
The man with an Indian accent said his name was Alan and he was from UK accident and he said that he knew someone from this number had had an accident in the last three years and was this correct.
I said it might be and asked why, he repeated himself and I did as well, then he said thank you and hung up.
Its obviously not genuine as he would have questioned me further. -
tinbhllue reported 08302637 with the number +442031291891 as Harassment calls
Said he was Eric - asking him if he thought I was stupid. He then proceeded to call me a motherf*cker and hang up - nice!
Why has this number not been shut down??
colin replied 4/18/14, 8:02 PMwe have just had the same thing - his language was the same and kept repeating it and other choice words - disgusting!g -
George reported Google Maps with the number 02031291891 as Telemarketer
The caller gave this number saying they were from Google about my entry on google maps and that they were going to help me 'fix' the problem I had to get customers to find me. There's nothing wrong with my entry. So I played along and when asked for my name said it was George Bush. Apparently I should get a call back later today as I said I was too busy. Beware, this is just usual scam.

Ali reported unknown with the number 02031291891 as Harassment calls
Now They have been calling me about my website. The Indian guy said that they were a Internet Company and his manager made him to call me because my website has been marked as dangerous. He also said I have to make a decision quickly because my website will be taken out from Goggle search. Seems they have a new scam. First they call me from 02031291891. Then they tried a few times. After that the same guy called me from +61871001312.

anijen reported number +442031291891 as unknown
Phone rings at least once a day usually more when I answer it is connected but no one speaks you can hear noise in the background as if they've dialled and left their phone off the hook. Getting really hacked off with it now as they always manage to ring whilst my baby is taking a nap!!!

WaterTiger reported "British Consumer" with the number +442031291891 as Survey
I'm called from this number frequently. Nowadays I usually let the answerphone take the call, and then check 1471.
Today's caller said he was from 'British Consumer'. As TPS has confirmed, there's no such company.
Someone who posted a comment here was asking why BT etc don't block these calls since the number is known. It's because BT and the other telephone providers make money offering a service that subscribers can sign up to specifically to block such calls – they ride on the back of these people, making them even more scummy than the callers. -
Lee reported Your Lifestyle with the number 02031291891 as Survey
I also have been getting these calls daily . A recurring theme of heavy Asian/Indian accents. THey have been asking me to complete a survey . My husband is ill and currently in hospital so the last thing I need to is to have both silent and abusive calls from these people. I onder why they keep ringing the same numbers expecting to get a different result .!!

John reported number +442031291891 as unknown
I have had several instances of an Indian woman who knows my name (and obviously phone No.) asking me to access my computer as there were security flaws. I told them that I knew it was a scam and that I would call the police. I have also received silent calls.

IanE reported unknown with the number +442031291891 as Harassment calls
I just had an Indian sounding chap call me from, 'Windows Support Centre'. I immediately smelled a rat. He asked me to simultaneously press the windows key and 'R', so I did. Then he wanted me to type, 'inf'' then hit OK.
I asked him what this was supposed to do - he said it would display all the infected files on my computer. I told him to hold on while I did a Google search to find out what this actually did. It took me a few seconds to find an informative site and I started reading some of the comments out to him. Amazingly, he stayed on the line and listened to it. Eventually, I told him that I knew it was a scam, not to call me back and hung up.

Billyboy reported "Microsoft" with the number +442031291891 as Harassment calls
Asian sounding lady with an English name claiming that my computer had been compromised by a virus and was sending error messages to Microsoft. She wanted me to give her access to my computer so that the matter could be resolved. I asked how I could trust she was who she said she was and she got very shirty saying she had told me! When I wouldn't play ball she hung up.

Mike reported unknown with the number 02031291891 as Survey
This number rings at least daily claiming to be a survey company; BT or Microsoft. Total scam mefchants who will get you to download their program allolwing access to your details. This program will also muck up your machine. They will then charge you GBP300 to remove the program ... if they do infact remove it at all. Just answer to wind them up and waste their time or let your phone go to ansafone so that they get charghed for the call. Cannot understand why BT or police cannot do something. Certainly Sussex Police aren't interested

Alex reported unknown with the number +442031291891 as Harassment calls
This number called my landline and I picked up but it was just silent at the other end. Then about 40mins later I was on my PC and an error message came up saying another computer was using my IP address. I don't know if these two things are connected. Anyone have any ideas?

These people try to access your computer and STEAL your data
TAKE NOTHING TO DO WITH THEM
HANG UP1111
They are gangsters. Keep them away from you. Before it was BT Technical Support, it was Microsoft Support. They are scammers based somewhere in Asia. Do not waste your time but just hang up on them.
