I recently put an order in through alldaychemist. Today I got a phone call from someone with an Indian accent claiming to be from Microsoft. He said needed to fix some error w/my computer/server/something or other. Of course this was totally ludicrous and I hung up on the guy.
Be very careful if you order from adc. They have a warning about fake calls and emails on their website. They really have a problem with security.
I did not even leave my real phone number on the order form either- not sure how the guy got it. |

I get that call myself here in the UK and I haven't ever ordered from all day chemist. I guess these people with their scam source peoples details from various places. Once they have your number it is very difficult to stop them calling 
I just tell them I don't own any computers (even though I do of course) there isn't much they can say to that and it gets rid of them for a bit.
Good luck! |

| You know, you're right, it may have been a coincidence. I do think adc has security issues (or did in the past) but it's hard to beat their prices and delivery time. |

I had one of those calls yesterday from "Peter" @ "Microsoft Security Dept". I told "Peter" what he could do with himself and hung up. Scam artists!
Oh and I've never ordered from ADC either. |
