As soon as the annoying answerphone message kicked in, I just ended the call. It’s another one of those pesky cold calls, even though we’re signed up with the TPS. I flagged it as "dangerous" because, while this is the first time this exact number’s called, it’s clearly along the same lines as other UK landlines that ring up then drop the call. When I looked it up, loads of others had left comments about chatting to scammers on the other end.

Got a call from a bloke with an Indian accent, claiming to be from BT tech support. Said my internet was messed up because some guy called John Cravil from Holland had hacked my account. He gave his name as James Wilson, said his BT ID was 12296 and he worked at the BT HQ in London. Then he wanted me to open one of my devices and click on the Google toolbar. I shut that down straight away, told him he sounded like a scammer just like all the others who keep ringing me. After that, he just hung up!

I got a call from someone claiming to be from BT Openreach, saying my landline had been hacked. I told them that Openreach isn’t actually an internet provider, but they didn’t seem to like that and ended up swearing at me before hanging up abruptly.

Received a call from someone claiming to be with BT Openreach, said my internet was at risk. Felt a bit dodgy if you ask me.

Got a call from some US-sounding agency, said they’d been trying to reach me about an issue with my broadband. Totally felt like a scam to me, sounded like one of those auto-dialler things.

Got a recorded message telling me my visa card's run out. Pretty clear it’s a dodgy scam!
