Reports on phone number 001793596931
5 yearsGot a call this morning from someone saying they were from BT and wanted to sort out my broadband problems. They asked if I was close to my router then started asking about how many gadgets were connected to my Wi-Fi. That made me a bit wary. I ended the chat and asked for a number to ring them back on. They gave me 441793596931. A quick search on Google showed it was a scam.BTGoogle6 yearsSomeone claiming to be from BT OpenReach called me, saying my internet speed was inconsistent and they wanted to sort it out. I asked for a callback number and they gave me 1793596931. When I questioned them about details regarding my line, like my account or address, they couldn’t provide any info. Definitely felt like a scam to me.BT OpenReach6 yearsGot a call from someone saying they're from BT, saying there was suspicious activity on my internet and if I didn't press 1 then my internet and calls would get cut off. I didn’t fall for it, just hung up right away.BT7 yearsI got a call from someone with an Indian accent saying they were from BT Openreach, telling me there was an issue with my internet. They gave me a number to call back but my caller ID showed a completely different one, 01224937883. When I asked them about it, they said their phone was 1793 596931. As soon as I said my internet was fine, they just ended the call.BT Openreach7 yearsHad a call from a woman named Janice, who said she was with BT. It was about 4.56pm when she rang, telling me I’d been picked for some sort of loyalty deal - like three months without paying line rental and 35% off everything else on my contract till it ends. Just felt a bit dodgy, like it was too good to be legit.JaniceBT7 yearsGot a call from a guy saying he was with BT Openreach. He said my internet was slow and tried to get me to install some program to 'sort it out.' He was super pushy about it. I asked for a reference number to ring back, but he refused to give one. Just gave me his phone number instead. Pretty dodgy if you ask me!BT Openreach7 yearsA person saying they were with BT rang us saying there was a problem with our internet security. They wanted to look at our laptop to see who might be using our service without permission. We said no and asked for a phone number so we could verify if it was real. They then gave us this number.BT7 yearsI got a call from a lady speaking with a bit of an Asian accent, and the line was really poor. She said she was from BT and that there was an issue with my router, so she needed to access my computer. I asked where exactly she was calling from, and she said London. Then I asked for a number so I could ring her back, and she gave me 1793 596931. While still on the call, I quickly looked the number up and stumbled on this site where loads of people were saying it’s a scam!!! I told her what I’d found, and pretty much straight away she hung up.BTLondonGoogle7 yearsTotal con artists.7 yearsThis week, this number has called me twice, both times saying the same story. They wanted to get into my phone and grab my IP address. They said they were from BT's main office. Pretty dodgy if you ask me.BT8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming they were from BT - total scam!British Telecom8 yearsGot a call from an asian guy, you could hear loads of background noise like a call centre. He kept going on about my IP address being public, not private. Then he asked me to look up my IP on google and read it out to him. Fishy if you ask me.Google8 yearsLooks like they’re still trying the same old tricks. Like others have mentioned here, I got a call from a dodgy line with someone speaking in an Asian accent claiming my computer was infected. He said he needed to sort it out remotely and would either install some software or walk me through fixing it online. Definitely a scam to snag your passwords or record your keystrokes. Don’t get caught by them! I’d say this number’s high risk since if you fall for their spiel, your bank account could be robbed before you even realise. Stay alert! MLL9 yearsGot a call from someone speaking with an Indian accent, but the line was awful. They said they were from BT and tried to tell me my internet had loads of viruses over the last few days, all that nonsense. I told them to confirm who they were by giving me the exact broadband plan I’m on and the date I upgraded, since I did that not long ago. When they dodged the question, I held the phone right next to my radio blaring at max volume. They ended up hanging up straight away.BT9 yearsGot a call earlier around 11.20, and the person said they was ringing from Virgin Media.Virgin Media10 yearsI received a call from a chap claiming my internet speed wasn’t up to snuff. When I inquired about what it ought to be, he mentioned 75mbs. I then pointed out I’m actually on a 200mbs plan. Then he wanted to know who my provider was, and I told him that since he was the one ringing me, that information ought to be in front of him. His response? A right string of expletives! Quite the experience, I must say.10 yearsI got a call saying my internet speed wasn’t up to par. When I asked what the expected speed was, they said 75mbps. I told them I’m actually on 200mbps. Then they asked who my provider was and I said that since they called me, they should already know. After that, the caller started swearing at me.11 yearsJust another typical broadband scam from a bunch of lowlifes. Disgraceful!11 yearsGot a call, no sound, then they just hung up with a “bye”. Tried ringing back and it just said it wasn’t taking calls. Probably one of those dodgy scam bots crashing under too many attempts!11 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent saying she was calling on behalf of BT Openreach.

Honestly, these types of calls are just harassment and they really ought to be stopped.BT Openreach11 yearsToday at about 12:36 GMT I got a phone call from this number. An Indian woman said she was calling on behalf of BT Openreach to sort out some broadband problems. My phone showed it as an international call, which seemed odd, so I just ended the call.BT Openreach11 yearsI've been receiving calls from this number nearly every day at all sorts of hours. When I do answer, there's just silence on the line, followed by some chatter in the background as if it's a call centre, and I promptly hang up. It’s quite bothersome, especially as I rely on my phone line for my medical alert system.11 yearsIt's quite frustrating to receive those bothersome calls only for the line to go dead. Such a pointless exercise!11 yearsi got a call from a woman speaking with an indian accent, saying she was from bt openreach. as soon as i mentioned i was a bit doubtful about her story, she just hung up straightaway. pretty clear it was just a scam trying to pull a fast one.BT Openreach11 yearsGot a call from this number today, and the lady had an Indian accent.

Really dodgy stuff!11 yearsGot a call from someone with an Indian accent claiming they were from BT Openreach. They wanted me to turn on my computer so they could test my internet speed. I hung up, blocked the number straight away, and then reported it to the Information Commissioner's Office. They also recommended I report it to the police’s fraud website, which I did as well.BT OpenreachInformation Commissioner ’ s Office11 yearsI've been getting calls from the same number a few times every day, maybe two or three. The lady on the line just says "hello" then ends the call. It's getting quite frustrating now.11 yearssome bloke with a weird accent called me, i asked what he wanted but he didnt say anything so i just ended the call11 yearsToday, I got a call from 001793596931. The person on the other end claimed there was an issue with my computer. I told him he was talking nonsense, and then he started threatening to come round later and mess with me and my family. He sounded Indian, and the connection was really bad. Honestly, I don’t know what else to do apart from buying a new phone from BT for £40 just to block their calls.11 yearsI got a call from a bloke with an Indian accent saying he's from BT, saying there was some internet issue he wanted to fix. When I said "is this one of those scams again?" he just hung up on me. I don’t even have BT internet.
