Phone number ☎️ 0017182134766 👆 is reported as a persistent scam call, often involving individuals claiming to be from BT or related technical support. Callers typically have South Asian accents and use tactics such as alleging internet security breaches, hacking, or connectivity issues to trick recipients into granting remote access to their devices. Many recipients report inconsistent or incorrect personal details provided by callers, aggressive behaviour when questioned, and immediate hang-ups if challenged. Genuine BT contact numbers do not resemble this one, and BT has confirmed it is not affiliated with these calls. It is strongly advised not to engage, share information, or follow any instructions from these callers. Blocking the number and reporting the incident to BT or the relevant authorities is recommended to protect against potential fraud or cybersecurity threats.

9 yearsI keep getting calls from someone saying they’re from BT or Microsoft about my Windows. If you want to block every single one of these annoying calls, go to [spam website]. It really helps!BTMicrosoft10 yearsI finally told them to stop ringing me so much and ordered a whistle to deal with it.10 yearsI recently received a call from an Asian gentleman claiming to represent BT. When I enquired about the purpose of his call, he became quite irate. He then transferred me to his 'supervisor', who turned out to be the same person! I asked him to send me an email regarding the matter, reasoning that as a BT employee, he surely had my details. In response, he requested I verify my email address, to which I provided the first and last letters-neither of which was correct. He abruptly ended the call! Clearly, this is a major scam. I urge everyone to refrain from taking any action on your computer if you receive a cold call like this-just hang up! It's the most effective course of action!BT10 yearsGot a call from some scammer pretending to be from BT - sounded like an Asian voice. Pretty sure my number was leaked by some dodgy BT agent. Seriously, BT needs to rethink their choice of call centres!BT10 yearsThey've rung me three times today, once at half past twelve and again at 2.34. I can't even imagine how many folks end up believing them or end up calling the number back. Such a waste of time!10 yearsLately, I keep getting calls every day. Sometimes no one picks up, other times they just hang up, and often it's this Asian bloke fibbing about being from BT. Honestly, why doesn't BT do something to stop this? I'm seriously thinking of getting a whistle or something!BT10 yearsI found a great way to deal with this. I use a printer that can fax and have caller ID on my phone. Whenever I get a call from an unknown number, I just send it straight to the fax machine. After a couple of tries, the annoying caller usually stops bothering me because the automated system rejects the number.10 yearsSince I updated my BT package, this number kept ringing me non-stop. Definitely not from BT though, they come across quite dodgy and seem keen to get remote access to your computer! I reckon some people working at the BT call centre might be sharing personal info. It’s baffling that BT haven’t looked into this or shut the number down. The real BT only ring from an 0800 line, so there's no mistaking them.BT10 yearsI've had enough of this, third time I'm reporting it here. Some guy named Arron, sounds Asian, keeps calling me from BT. Honestly, I just let it ring and then cut it off, don’t even bother picking up anymore.ArronBT10 yearsCheers BT, apparently it’s gonna set me back £4.75 every month just to stop these scam calls. Maybe being a bit cheeky is all that’s left to do now.BT10 yearsThis number has called me a few times now. A couple of times, someone with an Asian accent claimed to be from BT, but I told them my internet was fine and just ended the call. After that, I kept getting calls where no one said a word and the call ended as soon as I picked up. Quite strange really.BT10 yearsSo I got a call from a lady with an Asian accent claiming she was from BT, saying my router was basically sending out some harmful signals. I asked if I could talk to her manager to get some clarity. Then this Asian bloke came on and repeated the same nonsense. He kept calling me "ma’am," and I told him to cut it out because it felt a bit patronising. After that, he just put the phone down on me.BT10 yearswell, would you believe it, that annoying Dave popped up AGAIN today, trying his luck two days running! can’t he take a hint?Dave10 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming to be Dave from BT saying there were error messages on my account. I didn’t bother listening and just ended the call, because who’s really called Dave these days? Seriously, BT, sort your stuff out quicker!DaveBT10 yearsGot a missed call from this number earlier, didn’t know who it was so I looked it up online. Seeing all your comments about it helped a lot - definitely not ringing back. Cheers to everyone who shared their experiences!10 yearsTotal scam! Got a call from a guy with an Indian accent, told me that someone was trying to break into my wifi both in the morning and again later on. He wanted me to turn on my laptop so he could delete some files or something. Thankfully, I wasn’t home with my laptop at the time, and thats when I knew it was all a con!10 yearsA bloke with an Indian accent called me claiming to be from BT. He said that someone else was using my wifi and told me to check my router. Then he asked if I was on my computer, but I said I didn’t have one. After I told him I didn’t have a laptop or even an iPad, he just ended the call. I’m gonna report it to BT - how can they ignore this stuff when there’s a number to track? Seems like someone should be doing more about it.BT10 yearsGot a call earlier from a bloke with an Indian or maybe Pakistani accent, said his name was Daniel Smith or something like that. He claimed he was from BT but wouldn’t give me my address when I asked. Kept cutting me off, too, which was so annoying. Eventually I shut him down with a few sharp comebacks and then he just hung up. Nice one!Daniel SmithBT10 yearsI reckon this number is dodgy and might even be trying to hack your computer. Honestly, best thing is to hang up straight away. Someone really needs to do something about these calls where they pretend to be from BT.BT10 yearsAround 1 in the afternoon on December 21st, I got a call with nothing but silence for a bit, then an automated voice just said "goodbye." Looked it up here afterwards and realised loads of other people had the same thing happen.10 yearsI got a call from someone saying they needed me to run a computer program to check my ID for a payment from a company that doesn’t even exist anymore. I ended the call straight away after that.10 yearsI picked up the phone and just said “Hello” but there was no answer. After a few seconds, I heard a woman’s voice, probably a recording, say “Goodbye”. Figured it was probably a spam or nuisance call, so I searched the number on this site right away.10 yearsI keep getting calls from this number at all sorts of times, and every time I pick up and say hello, they just hang up right away.10 yearsGot a few calls outta nowhere, like five times. Every time, it was just dead silence or gibberish on the other side, made no sense at all.10 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Asian accent earlier claiming she was calling from BT. She mentioned something about my internet being faulty. When I asked her for her name and contact number, her explanation made little sense. I had a very similar call about a month back, so I figured it wasn’t a legitimate BT caller. Pretty quick to connect the dots and ended the call.BT10 yearsThis number rang me up saying they were from BT internet security. I got suspicious and phoned BT myself, who told me they had nothing to do with it. Watch out, it's definitely a scam.BT10 yearsThis guy was speaking with an Asian accent, and something about him just seemed a bit off. I didn’t even get past him giving a fake name before I ended the call. Didn’t trust him one bit.10 yearsI just got a call from this number, some bloke with awful English pretending to be from BT. When I asked him to prove it, he just hung up on me.BT10 yearsI answered the call and they just ended it straight away.10 yearsGot a call today from a lady with an Asian accent, saying she was from BT. She told me there’s been some kind of security problem and we had to act straight away. According to her, someone unknown was connected to our laptop and stealing our internet. She was really persistent, kept telling us to switch on the laptop and promised to guide us step-by-step. We didn’t follow her instructions, which seemed to annoy her. Definitely a scam, so watch out for this!BT10 yearsI got a call from someone with an Asian accent who said at first that he was from McAfee. Then he started swearing at me and I gave it right back to him, which was well deserved!McAfee10 yearsIf you're with BT, I'd suggest using their online chat support to let them know about the number. They say their Security team looks into these things and can block the calls. The more folks that report it, the faster they seem to move. We’ve got to try to stop these scammers somehow!10 yearsGot calls from this BT scam twice already. Honestly, I hope nobody ends up getting tricked by them - they seem to be targeting people who might be more trusting or vulnerable. I reported it to BT, and they confirmed it’s a scam and not legit at all. I’ve also shared the number with them so they can look into it further. If you get a call like this, just hang up straight away. Don’t follow any instructions or let them near your computer, or they could nab your passwords and get into your bank accounts. Stay sharp, folks!BT10 yearsSo this number just rang me too. The bloke had an Indian accent and said he was from BT, I ended the call pretty quick. Felt a bit mean at first but then I checked this site and saw all the warnings. Now I’m glad I cut it off fast, no regrets! Have gone ahead and blocked the number now.10 yearsUtter scammers! I decided to quiz the woman on the other end about my internet setup, which obviously they knew nothing about, even though they pretended to be from BT security. It’s definitely a con job. Don’t follow any of their instructions, not even something as simple as counting the lights on your homehub. If you want, keep them hanging for a while - better than them targeting someone else, right?BT10 yearsGot a ring from this number, bloke with an Indian accent saying there was a problem with my broadband. He wanted me to open the "run" box on my computer and type in "inf hacking files" then press enter. I told him I've got arthritis (which is true) and my arm was aching, so I'd just put on my headset and call BT myself. Obviously, I didn’t bother calling BT and I blocked the number so they couldn’t get through again.10 yearsGot a call from some Indian bloke saying his name was "Daniel Smith," claimed he was with BT and told me my internet was hacked or something. He wanted me to type "remove all malicious software" on my laptop. I just ended the call, seemed like a total scam to me.Daniel SmithBT10 yearsThis number just rang me and I instantly got a weird feeling about it. So, I slowly said out loud the letters P O L I C E to them.10 yearsAfter I'd rung the real BT about some password stuff, I got a call from 0017182134766 claiming to be BT saying there was a problem with my line and others had been on it. I told BT about the nuisance call cos they knew about it already. In the end, I just blocked the number through my phone settings.BT10 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Asian accent this morning around half eight, saying he was from BT’s tech team. He claimed my phone line was showing some weird errors and dropping out loads. He was just about to ask me some security questions when the call suddenly cut off. Not sure what his game was, but I reckon it’s a scam - best not to engage with these sort of calls.BT10 yearsSo I got a call earlier from this number 0017182134766, some woman with an Asian accent saying she was from BT. She was telling me that loads of people were using my internet or something. I straight up told her it was a usual scam and told her to jog on!BT10 yearsJust like others have mentioned, I got a call from a woman speaking with an Indian accent who said she was from BT. She told me there were some “issues” with my internet. Honestly, I doubt BT would ring customers one by one about stuff like this, and my connection seems totally fine. Pretty sure it’s a scam.BT10 yearsJust got a call from someone claiming my phone was getting hacked. They wouldn’t give me any account details and then just ended the call. Definitely felt like a dodgy scam to me. Happened yesterday too!10 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent who said she was calling on behalf of BT. She told me there was an issue with my internet making it slow, which isn’t true at all. Then she asked me to check the BT help page and count how many blue bars I could see. It was clearly a trick, so I just hung up straight away.BT10 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be at BT’s international support, saying my internet had been hacked. I rang BT myself, told them about the call and passed on the number.BT10 yearsTotal scam, just block this number and don’t answer. It’s definitely not legit!10 yearsTotally with what everyone else said. Got a call from someone with an Asian accent. Asked them to tell me my BT account number and what they gave was absolute nonsense. Just ended the call there and then.10 yearsGot a call from what they said was a call centre in New York, but the person had a really strong Asian accent. They started telling me my computer was infected with a virus. Knew straight away it was a scam, so I just ended the call right away.New York10 yearsI got a call from 0017182134766, some guy with an Asian accent said there was an issue with my computer. He asked me to count how many blue lights were showing. Sounds fishy to me, definitely a scam. The number is from the US.States10 yearsGot a call claiming to be from BT, saying I had to check if the hub had blue lights because my computer was acting up. Feels dodgy, like a scam to me.BTSubmit Your Own Report ((718) 213-4766)
