Microsoft scam calls

I have received two scam calls today (Friday 19th March 2021) purporting to be from the Microsoft Technical Team and wanting to access my computer to deal with a superbug that my normal security would not have tackled. I have also had a number of other calls which I have not answered. These were calls from UK mobile numbers to my personal mobile number and the callers knew my name. I hung up on the first one but when I told the second one he was not from the Microsoft Technical Team his response was "Well who the hell am I then ?" and hung up. The calls were both from men with what I believe to be African accents. I have not been able to find out how to report this directly to the Microsoft security Team but the details are as follows:


0757: 07940 680727 - I answered this one and hung up.

0801: 07940 145911 - Did not answer.

1027: 07465 778156 - Did not answer. Number not recognised when I tried to call it.

1028; 07940 680727 - Did not answer.

1202: 07802 310725 - Caller hung up when challenged.


I don't know how useful this information is in tracing these people but hope it assists.
