000800800150 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 000800800150 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance scam number targeting UK residents with calls purporting to be from BT or Openreach. Callers often use automated or recorded messages with American or Indian accents, warning that the recipient's internet or phone lines have been compromised and will be disconnected unless the user presses a button. Attempts to gain remote access or personal information have been reported. The number frequently bypasses call blockers and mimics genuine BT contact details, causing confusion. Recipients are advised not to engage, to block the number, and to verify any concerns directly through official BT channels. Authorities have been alerted, but the calls continue, so vigilance is essential to avoid falling victim to this fraudulent activity.

Got a call saying my BT internet was gonna be cut off. They told me to press 1 if it was BT or 2 if it was something else. I pressed 1 like they said, then all I could hear was a bunch of people talking in the background, so I just ended the call right away. Feels like one of those dodgy scams to me!

Some bloke with an American accent rang and said he was from BT. He asked me to press 1 if I was with BT, or 2 if I wasn’t.

I got a call from a bloke speaking with a really thick Indian accent, claiming to be some kind of "British Telecom tech". He said my phone and internet had been "hacked" or something and that they were about to cut my connection off. Then he tried to get me to "press 1 to prevent the disconnection." I just hung up straight away.

I rang BT straight away and they told me it wasn’t from their end. But then, a few hours after, my mobile’s Wi-fi just stopped working. To get it back, I had to put my router password in all over again which made me a bit uneasy. Should I be worried about this?

I had the exact same call as the person above and just ended it straight away. The number pops up on caller ID as 0800 instead of 000800, which could easily mislead someone. Definitely not good!

Heard an American voice leaving a message that said the line will be cut off soon and to press 1 if it’s BT or press 2 for any other network. Sounded like a recorded thing.

Totally a scam call. They said my BT internet was at risk and would be cut off because of some security breach. Sounds just like the other stories I’ve read here. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.

Just got a call from this number today and I've gone ahead and blocked it. It's weird it managed to get through the telephone preference service though. Been looking at other comments about it, quite a few ppl had similar experiences.

I got a call from 000800800150 claiming there was a security breach with BT and that our service would be disconnected if we didn’t reply. Totally didn’t buy it!

Got a call from this number at 1:32 pm on 13/04/18, claiming our internet was hacked and they needed to control our computer remotely to sort it. We told the guy we don’t even use BT for our phone line, but he insisted all lines belong to BT. Obviously, I didn’t let them anywhere near my computer. I checked with my internet provider and they confirmed it’s a scam. The Telephone Preference Service also flagged it as a fraud attempt. I’ve reported this number to the police already. Be careful, these scammers are just trouble, total rubbish.

I got a ring from this number earlier, saying our internet was about to be disconnected because of some security breach in California. Looks like they're still up and running, that’s for sure.

Had a call from 000800800150 at around 3:45pm today, saying my PC was hacked or something. But my wife already sorted it all out back on 12/04/2018. Felt like a scam to me.

Got a call earlier saying my internet was going to be cut off, then they wanted me to press 1 for one thing or 2 for another. I didn’t press anything and they just ended the call. Honestly, these kind of calls should be stopped altogether.

Got a call from this number earlier, and it was one of those recorded messages saying it was from BT, warning my internet would be disconnected soon. Like someone else mentioned, it’s really suspicious. I used BT’s 1572 service to block it, but it feels like more needs to be done to stop these annoying calls. You'd think nowadays they should be able to track where these come from easily. What’s worse is it looks almost identical to the real BT customer service number except for the international prefix, which is just confusing and concerning for folks.

This number has been bugging me for months, some American woman calling to say my internet's going to get cut off today because it’s been hacked in California. When will this mess finally get sorted? It’s driving me mad!

Just got a call from someone saying they're with BT, telling me my internet was at risk and might get cut off. They had me press 1 if I was with BT or 2 for another provider. I hit 2 out of curiosity to see what would go down - probably the same as pressing 1 anyway. Then they connected me to some "online engineer," where I decided to end it and hang up. At least my internet is still up and running, so that's a relief! Quite the shocker, huh?

this afternoon i got a call from this number with an automated message saying my internet was going to be cut off today as it had been hacked in california. it asked me to press 1 if i was with bt internet, or 2 if i had another provider. sounded exactly like the same american female voice from a call i got a few weeks back, where she was counting down to when my connection would be stopped.

This afternoon I got a call from this number with a recorded message warning that my internet would be cut off later today due to some kind of security breach in California. The automated voice told me to press 1 if I use BT Internet, or 2 for any other provider. It's the same American lady's voice who kept calling every few hours a few weeks back, giving a countdown to when my connection would supposedly be turned off. The tone of those calls got more and more intimidating. I tried reporting it to the Internet Fraud department, but they told me to take it up with the local police, who didn't seem to care at all.

Just got a call from 000800800150 - looks almost exactly like the BT number but with 2 extra zeros tacked on at the front. A recorded message said my broadband was gonna be cut off cos it’d been hacked in California or something, total rubbish. Since the number is so close to BT’s, you’ve gotta watch out or you might fall for it.

Got a call from someone claiming to be with BT Openreach, saying there was an issue with our broadband because of some problem at the local exchange. They then asked me to get on my computer and open Google. That’s when I just ended the call. Felt like one of those Windows tech support scams, pretty much the same spiel. Watch out for this one!

Right, so that number rang me again and it was actually about sending out a new fibre optic cable for my internet. Seems like they're targeting those who might not be as tech savvy, so check in with any older relatives or friends to see if they’ve had this call. It's frustrating that these numbers are still active after nearly a whole year - they really should be blocked.

I received a rather poor-quality call from someone claiming to be with BT Open Reach, saying there were issues in the vicinity and asking if I could check my broadband speed. The woman had an accent that sounded quite Indian. The moment I expressed my doubts about her authenticity, she hung up on me! Oddly enough, this call managed to get through my CallGuardian system. It was the first unsolicited call I'd had since I acquired this phone!

I received a call from someone named "Mark" claiming to be with BT. He mentioned that there had been issues affecting internet speeds in my area and wanted me to carry out a speed test to determine if their fixes had worked. I graciously turned down his request, noticing his noticeable accent from the Indian subcontinent.

I got a call like that today about my bt internet speed. I just ended the call and then saw the other comments. Everyone should watch out for this.

Yesterday I got a phone call from this number, and the guy on the line sounded Indian. He said he was from Openreach (BT) and started talking about my internet speed. I wasn’t convinced so I just hung up. Later, I called BT myself to see if they’d tried to contact me, and surprise, surprise, they hadn’t. I noticed the number was almost the same as the real Openreach one, just with an extra couple of zeroes at the start. No doubt lots of people might fall for this since it looks so much like the real BT Openreach number. That’s why I had to double-check with BT.
