Microsoft support scam warning – what to watch out for! - +44 344 800 2400 (0344 800 2400)
Summary — +443448002400
Expert Opinion
If you receive a call from +443448002400 claiming to be Microsoft, treat it with suspicion. Scammers often say your PC is hacked or full of errors and ask for remote access – a classic tech‑support scam. Never grant control, share passwords, or pay for "fixes". Hang up, and if you’re unsure, call Microsoft directly using the official number on their website. Keep a record of the caller’s name and details; this helps report the fraud to Action Fraud. Stay calm, verify the request independently, and remember legitimate support never pressures you into immediate action.

Scam - a number from Spain is calling. I've received several calls from this same number. When I inquired about their location, they stated Massachusetts. They claimed to be from Hotmail (they will read your email address and ask if it's yours) and inform you that your email has been sending spam, claiming complaints have been received. Absolute nonsense. They will instruct you to go to your computer and perform tasks that allow them to log in remotely; do NOT comply! I didn’t, but I managed to keep them on the line for over 40 minutes while pretending to follow through. They became quite furious at the end when they realized I clearly wasn't at a computer. Waste their time and frustrate them.
