11 yearsThis number keeps calling me non stop!11 yearsGot a call from this number supposedly from TalkTalk’s tech team sayin my computer was hacked. She threatened to cut off my internet if I didn’t follow her instructions. I told her I wasn’t buying it since I’ve had the same kinda calls before this week and when I tried callin back the number just said it wasn’t known. I made it clear I pay my bill on time and if they cut me off I’d take legal action. She kept interruptin and then just hung up on me. Total joke!TalkTalk11 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Indian accent claiming to be from BT, telling me my internet would get cut off. I knew it was dodgy since I've dealt with this kind of scam before. I played along a bit, asking what he actually meant, and then he wanted me to log onto my PC. I told him no way. He kept saying my internet would be disconnected the next day. I refused again, and then he just ended the call.11 yearsGot a call from a woman with a foreign accent pretending to be from TalkTalk this morning. She said my computer was compromised and if I didn't follow her instructions, she'd cut off my service. I told her my bill was all paid up and there was nothing wrong. I also warned her I’d take legal action if they disconnected me without cause. Mentioned I’ve had a bunch of similar calls before, and when I tried calling her number back, it was always unreachable. She just kept threatening to disconnect, then abruptly hung up on me!TalkTalk11 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from BT, claimed they were calling about my internet being compromised and needed to fix my IP address. When I told him I’d call BT myself to double check, he started yelling that I had to do it right away. I said I’d just grab another phone to ring BT for real and he lost it, shouting before hanging up. Pretty sure it was a scam to try and mess with my computer.BTBaker StreetLondon11 yearsThis bloke rang me up saying my computer was hacked and got really aggressive the minute I asked him some questions. He said he was from BT and was calling from Baker Street in London. When I said I'd call BT using the number I had, he insisted I must ring right away. So I said I'd use a different phone to call. Then he started shouting that I HAD to pay attention to him. At that point, I just told him to bugger off.BTBaker StreetLondon11 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from BT, saying my internet was hacked and they needed to cut it off.
