"Foreign gentleman (I think Asian accent) said he was calling from Microsoft about my computer. I said no, I wasn't expecting a call from them. He belligerently said, 'What do you mean no?' He then talked over me, accused me of being rude and scolded me for not having the decency to listen. I thought him very rude, said 'bye and hung up. It surely must have been a scam."

"Scam callers fooled me into giving away personal details by pretending to be my mobile phone company and they sent me an email with a link that I clicked on. They want to steal your identity to use your information for expensive phone contracts and other bad things. Still getting bothered by lots of calls."
