I had a call from the number above and the caller had a heavy Asiain accent. He said he was calling about ppi insurance and asked for someone with a different name. I told him that he had the wrong number. He then proceeded to hang up. I'm sick of getting calls from these idiots claiming to be from one company or the other!
I had a similar call 0203 0263789 and 0203 0266482. He said the company name was Wizit and his name was Rooney. But he was Asian or Arabic not Irish or British. He said that viruses had been downloaded in my postcode area and he need me to go on my PC and download something.
I have worked in IT for over 25 years and i told him he was running a scam so he hung up immediately. Nobody can know if you have a virus without accessing your machine and they shouldn't be able to do this legally without your permission and viruses don't get downloaded by area postcodes. These people are breaking the law. I have given my information to the police I suggest you all do the same. Also tell your bank and change all your passwords. Also invest in a very good Malware checker and run a full hard disk scan.
I too received a call from 0203 026 6482 on 02/11/11, he spoke with a heavy asian accent, said his name was Stan and that he worked for PC Wizard at Microsoft. He said there was a strong possibility that the software installed on my pc was infected with a high-risk virus and could I access my pc to do a simple check to eradicate the problem. I said it was inconvenient at that time and to call back. He then got impatient with me and kept trying to convince me on the urgency of this matter. Realising I wasn't giving in, he then pressed for an actual time to call back as this problem will not go away and it needs to be sorted soon. I agreed to 12pm. He did call back the next day but I chose not to answer.

I keep on getting calls from them, because of my one mistake i let them get into my computer and they installed some random stuff that i did not want, they said to me that i was in big risk and my computer was in danger this made me panic so they said to me that they will clear everything out, but then i got suspicious and phoned virgin media who i am connected with and they said it was a scam call. I really don't know what to do but if you do get a call from them don't believe them cut the call, and if you have an solution to my problem please please tell me.
