Looks like they're still trying their luck. Apparently, my BT internet got hacked or something. Yeah, like I’m gonna believe that! Absolute rubbish.

Got a call from a guy going by ‘Ryan’ claiming to be from BT, warning me about some serious internet security issue. I told him straight that I don’t even have a BT account, so he must’ve dialled the wrong person. Feels like the usual trick where they try to sneak into your computer pretending to be legit. Ended up blocking the number.

Some bloke said he was from BT's internet team, telling me there'd been loads of foreign attacks on my connection. I told him I was aware, said it was just scammers constantly ringing me up. He kept insisting it wasn’t a scam then asked me to get my husband, but then left the phone off the hook and rang off himself. I've gone and blocked that number now.

Received a phone call from this number and was warned that my number would be shared with a fraudulent website unless I provided my name. How kind.

Earlier today, I received a call from an international number. The woman on the line claimed to be from BT and informed me about some illegal activity on our internet connection. She indicated that this was the reason for the recent increase in our data usage. Although she didn't explicitly state that our computer was infected, she offered her assistance in resolving the issue. To catch her off guard, I mentioned that our line is connected to SamKnows, as a result of the official Ofcom broadband speed monitoring conducted several years ago. I explained that regular tests are performed to measure download/upload speeds, which is entirely true. These tests could account for any additional bandwidth usage. Furthermore, I mentioned that our Internet Service Provider (ISP) blocks illegal connections, which is also accurate. Consequently, continuing the call seemed pointless, prompting me to terminate the conversation by hanging up.

Today this number called me and when they said they were from bt security, I just told them they were talking nonsense.

just like the rest, this woman said she was from ‘bt’ and talked about some illegal use of my internet. she kept going on about techy things but i kept rambling more, and she eventually gave up and hung up after looking lost.

BEWARE OF SCAM: Recently, I received a call from a person named Derek Thomas. He spoke in a slow and clear manner, claiming to be an employee of BT. According to Derek, there was allegedly suspicious foreign activity detected on my router (ironically, it was my phone engaging in the dubious conversation with him). I questioned him about his affiliation, and he insisted that he worked for BT. Curious about his location, Derek proceeded to recite the address of BT's head office in London. However, this struck me as peculiar because the number displayed on my phone was from Zambia (00260). Realizing it was a scam, I promptly ended the call. To my annoyance, he immediately attempted to call me again. What an unpleasant individual!

Got a call from someone claiming to be from BT’s communications centre, said there were hackers from abroad messing with my internet. The guy, who called himself Shaun and had a thick Indian accent, told me I had some sort of personal security number - 888dca or something like that. As soon as I ended the call, he kept ringing me back like three times from 0026042017. Proper fishy if you ask me.

Got a call from some bloke who said his name was James Dawney, sounded like one of those dodgy 888dca scams, and he didn’t give up easy. He showed a callback number as 18005906900, but the actual number he rang me from was 0026042017. The guy was going on about hackers trying to mess with my internet and said they’d shut it down in 45 minutes if I didn’t sort it. Total scam, just trying to scare you. Watch out for this one!

Got this call from an Indian call centre pretending to be from some internet security company. They said there was dodgy stuff happening on my internet and offered to sort it out. Said they had some ID for my system or something. Classic 888 DCA scam like others have said. I played along for ages just to waste their time and hopefully save others from the same. When I finally hung up, they rang straight back, sounded really shocked and a bit offended. I told the guy I’m an engineer and he was talking nonsense, then ended the call.

Received a phone call earlier today at twelve o'clock (21/09/17), similar to previous comments, wherein someone spoke with an Indian accent. They identified themselves as being from BT and expressed concerns about a security problem with my IP address. In order to gather more information, I pretended to cooperate for some time. However, as soon as I voiced my disbelief regarding his affiliation with BT, he abruptly ended the call. Sadly, this incident represents yet another fraudulent scheme...

The person keeps making frequent calls, which are quite bothersome. I choose not to pick up the phone and respond to these annoying calls.

An imposter rang, pretending to be from BT, claiming to resolve a router issue.
