Expert Opinion
Block this number immediately to avoid further hassle. Scammers often pose as Microsoft support, claiming a virus on your computer and urging you to grant remote access or call back. Shut down your device straight away if they contact you, and boot into safe mode to check for issues. Never share screen control or personal details—these tactics lead to data theft or malware installation. Report the incident to Action Fraud for investigation. Keep antivirus software updated and ignore unsolicited tech support calls. If you've interacted, run a full scan with reputable tools like Malwarebytes.
