Phone number ☎️ 0018287432828 👆 is reported as a number associated with persistent scam calls claiming to be from TalkTalk or other major providers like Virgin Media. Callers often use heavy Indian accents and try to scare recipients about router or broadband issues, sometimes knowing personal details. They ask for access to computers or account info, hang up immediately when challenged, and never leave messages. Many have noted calls occur frequently, sometimes multiple times daily, causing distress, especially to elderly people. The number appears to be spoofed, often showing as originating from the USA, despite claiming to be UK-based. Callers may become offensive if pressed for proof or questioned, and are believed to be part of a larger fraudulent operation targeting vulnerable individuals.

I can’t recall the name they gave. They rang my work phone here in New Zealand, saying they were from Windows. I really wish there was some way to deal with these lot. Bloody annoying!

I thought the questions sounded a bit dodgy, so I asked, "How can I be sure this call is legit?" and then the phone just cut off.

They ring me all the time. Usually, I play along for a bit, maybe 30 seconds, then I mention I work as a network engineer. After that, there’s usually a bit of quiet or a quick "Oh right," and they end up hanging up pretty quickly.

Got calls from this number loads of times, I usually just let it ring out cause they never bother leaving a message. Picked up once on 17th May 2017, an Asian bloke claimed to be from TalkTalk's tech support. He even knew my name and said there was an issue with my router. Then he started asking about the lights on it, but I could tell it was dodgy straight away and just ended the call.

Got a call from someone with an Indian accent claiming it was about my TalkTalk account. Thing is, I haven’t used TalkTalk for more than a year. When I asked if they were some kind of scam or trying to steal info, the bloke just cut me off. Proper dodgy.

I've been getting calls pretty much every week from TalkTalk but always from new numbers. When they rang this time, they said there was something wrong with my router and asked if the green light was on. I told them I can't tell colours properly because I'm colour blind. Now I just block them all as soon as they call.

On 17th May at around 11:26 in the morning, a bloke named Blake Xavier got in touch, saying he was from "TalkTalk." Apparently, my router was having issues and it was up to me to fix it or else I'd lose my internet connection. As if! I told him if my broadband went down, I'd just switch to a different company. Honestly, I’m nearly ready to do that anyway since I keep getting these dodgy calls pretending to be from TalkTalk. After a chat that went on for about nine minutes, including a handover to some 'call centre manager', the bloke just hung up on me.

Didn't leave any message when they rang, bit fishy to me. After seeing what others said here, I've gone and blocked the number.

These scammers pretending to be from TalkTalk keep ringing non-stop but quickly hang up once my voicemail picks up.

My phone never even buzzed, guess they blocked the number or sumthin. I'm on TalkTalk myself and reckon some dodgy workers over there in India have been selling our info. This kinda thing's been goin on way before all that TalkTalk hacking drama. If you wanna have a bit of fun, keep them on the line and then ask what your ISP email address is. They usually get all flustered and annoyed, then just hang up. Pretty funny tbh!

On the 4th of May, 2017, someone claiming to be from Virgin Media rang us up three separate times. They kept pushing us to check our computer because they said there was an issue with the router. Pretty obvious to me that it was a total scam.

On the 4th of May, 2017, we got three calls from a number claiming to be Virgin Media. The caller was really pushy, telling us there was an issue with our router and we needed to put something on the computer. It’s clear now it was a total scam.

Got another call from Talk Talk claiming to be from their team. The guy said his name was Alex, but when I pressed him, he admitted he was Zap from Nigeria. We ended up having a pretty amusing discussion about the ethics of scamming folks, and then he got all salty and called me a bloody idiot before hanging up. Didn’t let him have the last word though! Honestly, just playing their game back is a good way to kill time and give them a taste of their own medicine!

So this number 0018287432828 rang me, pretending to be TalkTalk. They started asking me for a password that TalkTalk supposedly gave ME, but honestly, that password was totally made up. When I didn’t play along, they just ended the call. Clearly a scam trying to sound official.

I've had this number ring me about five times already and it's only just gone 12:15pm! They're saying it's TalkTalk or something like that. It's really upsetting my 91-year-old mum and they seriously need to quit calling! I've signed up with the TPS, but these calls keep coming and I don't know how to block them properly.

I didnt pick up the call since the number didn’t look familiar on my phone. From what I gather they keep ringing over and over again, they sure are quite pushy.

Got a couple of calls from this number today claiming to be from Talk Talk. They wanted to get into my broadband router or something. This isn’t the first time they’ve rung me, which is pretty dodgy. What creeped me out more is that last time they actually knew my Talk Talk account number! They can sound quite convincing, but honestly, don't fall for it!

I got a call from what sounded like TalkTalk, but it was a dodgy Indian call centre. When I refused to cooperate, the bloke ended up telling me to "go and f##k yourself." Proper rude!

Just got a ring on our London landline from 0018287432828. The person on the other end said they were from TalkTalk, but when I asked why a US number, they said TalkTalk was actually a Californian firm (though 828 is actually North Carolina). They then launched into the typical spiel about some issue with my computer. Seems pretty obvious this was a phishing scam to me.

I got a ring from 0018287432828 claiming to be from TalkTalk. I was quick to say he wasn’t with them. Of course, he asked why I doubted him and I just told him I’d looked up the number already. Ended the call pretty sharpish. Next time, I won’t be nearly as nice. 127

Got a call on my landline from someone claiming to be from TalkTalk, speaking with a strong Indian accent and struggling with English. He told me there were errors on my TalkTalk router. When I asked where he was calling from, he replied India, but couldn’t name the city. I even tried naming different towns in India, but he had no clue and ended up hanging up. The number showed as a US one, so clearly it was spoofed. I've reported it to both Action Fraud and TalkTalk via email, as these scammers seem to be hijacking TalkTalk’s proper phone lines. Really risky stuff.

I keep getting calls every morning around 11am to midday from what looks like a UK landline, but it's actually scammers pretending to be local. I've heard these TalkTalk scammers buy legit numbers and then forward calls from overseas, making it seem like they're calling from nearby. It's proper annoying having to deal with these fake local calls on a daily basis.

Got two calls within a couple of hours, both from different numbers. They were going on about issues with my router, but it definitely seemed like a scam.

Scammers try to trick you by pretending they're from TalkTalk, but they're just after your info. Best thing is to not respond to these nasty fraudsters at all.
