005823 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 005823 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number impersonating BT technical support, often using Indian-accented voices and calling at early or inconvenient hours. Callers claim your internet has been hacked or is at risk of disconnection, pressuring victims to turn on their computers for remote access. Many have noted aggressive behaviour, refusal to provide verifiable contact details, and attempts to extract personal or financial data. Calls frequently end abruptly if suspicion is raised. The number is linked to repeated nuisance calls, silent hang-ups, and attempts to exploit vulnerable or unsuspecting individuals. Users are advised not to engage, avoid sharing information, and report calls to their phone provider or BT as potential fraud. Blocking the number is recommended to reduce nuisance.
Reports on phone number 005823
10 yearsI received a rather dodgy phone call from someone with an Indian accent, purporting to be from BT in Nottingham. This individual asserted that my internet was compromised. The moment I mentioned that I wasn't even a BT customer, he seemed rather rattled and insisted that I switch on my computer so he could demonstrate the "issue". When I informed him that I don’t actually have a computer and only use my internet for television, it clearly threw him off, and before I knew it, the line went dead. Quite the blatant scam, if you ask me!BTNottingham10 years005823 This number has rung me loads of times, but I never pick up. Strange unknown callers like this really bug me. Like everyone else, I don’t understand why BT can’t just block these numbers for good.BT10 yearsQuite a few calls from this number where no one actually speaks.10 years005823. Got calls from Indian speakers twice now, using the same trick others mentioned. Why doesn't BT block this number when its brand is being used in these scams?BT10 yearsI had them on the line for about 20 minutes before they passed me to a ‘manager’, who I grilled to see if he was legit from BT - obviously he wasn’t. He tried every trick to get my driving licence number, claiming it was needed for internet setup, which makes no sense. He even got quite rude, mocking the fact I’m currently unemployed, asking what I use the internet for if I’m not working, and calling me arrogant, even joking I must be the PM or something. These people are total crooks, part of bigger criminal networks, harvesting info on a massive scale.BTUnited States10 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent saying she was calling from BT. She claimed my computer was picking up malware, but my PC wasn't even switched on since I was still in bed at 7:55 in the morning. She kept saying it was urgent I switch on my computer right away. I calmly told her it sounded like a scam and ended the call.BT10 yearsThey must be getting my number from some public phone book or something, why would I have to go ex-directory just because of these scammers?! My missus is fed up with it, honestly, so am I. I've got a little girl at home - why should she have to deal with this if she picks up and naively follows what the caller says? It’s proper upsetting that some folks think being crooks is the only way to make a living - is this really the kind of place we want to call home? Rant finished.10 yearsReceived a call supposedly from BT, but as soon as I started to question them, they hung up on me. Definitely a scam!BT10 yearsSome bloke rang me saying he was from BT tech support. He told me my PC had been hacked and asked me to turn it on. I told him nothing’s wrong and just ended the call. He called back right away asking why I’d cut him off. I told him it was a scam and hung up. Then he tried calling me two more times within a few minutes. Sounded like an Asian accent.BT10 yearsGot a call about 9.30ish saying my BT internet was gonna be disconnected for three months! Yeah right! Then she asked if my computer was switched on - I told her she should already know that - then she just hung up. Definitely a scam, the accent and background sounds made it pretty clear it was from somewhere in the Indian subcontinent.10 yearsGot loads of calls from this number. The latest was at 7:55 this morning. Honestly, no point answering, just hang up straight away.10 yearsThis morning I got a call from 005823 and the person claimed to be from BT, saying my internet would get disconnected if I didn’t run some tests on my laptop. I asked for a contact number to call back and they gave me 01158883173, saying it was their Nottingham branch. I contacted BT directly to report it and they said they’re sending it to their security team as a possible scam.BTNottingham10 yearsClaimed his name was Jack and asked if I could fire up my computer so he could assist me in resolving the issue.Jack10 yearsGot a call from 005823 on my landline 0810, it went straight to voicemail and all I got was some faint background noise. Reading through the other comments now, makes me wonder if BT actually monitors this website, flags up dodgy numbers and does anything to stop them using their networks?BT10 yearsAh man, if I'd known it was those lot trying to scam folks again, I could’ve had a bit of a laugh! Definitely gonna save this number for the next round :DBlimey10 yearsOver the years, this scammer has phoned me quite a few times. Luckily, it’s often been when I had a moment to play along and act like I was buying it. I once managed to keep someone chatting for about 20 minutes by pretending I was a bit dazed and thankful they were so patient. When I’ve had enough, I just tell them off for being scammers and hang up. Feels good knowing I might’ve stopped them from conning someone else who’d be less wary.10 yearsI've received three calls today already from various individuals purporting to be from BT technical support. One of them insisted there was an issue with my computer, while two others warned me that my internet would be disconnected for six hours. Curiously, when I pressed them for more details, they abruptly ended the call. Quite suspicious, isn’t it?BT10 yearsGot a call from 005823 saying there’s an issue with my internet. When I asked the woman if her mum never told her to stop lying, she just hung up.10 yearsI received a call from an Asian gentleman, but I couldn't make head or tail of what he was saying before he abruptly ended the conversation. Cheers for your help, Ellen!Ellen10 yearsI queried his identity and he claimed to be from BT. When I probed further about the international call appearance, he insisted it was just BT Nottingham displaying that way. Then, he warned me that my internet would be cut off at midnight, to which I retorted with a dismissive "nonsense" and ended the call. Oddly enough, 1471 revealed the number 005823 after that.BTBT Nottingham10 yearsGot a call from this number, some person saying they were from BT tech support or something! Complete nonsense, I told her off and ended the call cause she kept saying 'ma’am' like I was an old lady or sumthin! Then, a few mins later, they rang back just to say goodbye! Proper irritating!BT10 yearsI've been inundated with calls from this number almost daily, and it’s getting a bit tiresome. They claim to be Technical Support for BT, but a quick search reveals it’s part of a new scam. Best to steer clear of them!BT10 yearsGot a call from 005823 around 8:30 this morning. I couldn’t hear anything, just a recorded voice saying ‘goodbye’.10 yearsJust missed this call cause I couldn't get to my phone quick enough lol. 8am is the earliest call I've got so far and honestly, it's getting on my nerves. I won’t be nice to these scammers, cause trying to hack into someone's computer or laptop to steal passwords, bank info and cash isn’t exactly something to be polite about!10 yearsI've received multiple calls from this number, purporting to be from BT. A couple of them came in during the early hours, which is incredibly frustrating. Honestly, it's just a right pain. I always end up disconnecting the call. The most recent one was around twenty to two this afternoon. Is there any way to put an end to this, I wonder?BT10 yearsGot a call from someone saying they're from BT tech support asking to get into my computer. Totally a dodgy scam.BT10 yearsRecieved a call from 008523 on the morning of 21-05-2016 around 8.05am, saying pretty much what others have mentioned here. I told them my computer was working perfectly and asked if they knew any BT engineers personally. Right after that, they just ended the call. I probably get around three of these calls every week, all trying to trick me into giving them access to my PC.10 yearsSome dodgy person pretending to be from BT tech support. Complete rubbish!BTTechnical Department10 yearsI've received a couple of calls from this number in the last few days. Each time, the person on the other end claimed to be from British Telecom, insisting that my computer had been compromised. I firmly told them I doubted their affiliation with BT. The first conversation was quite brief, as I hung up on him. In the second instance, when I declined to engage any further, he threatened to cut off my internet connection altogether!British TelecomBT10 yearsthey claimed to be from BT saying my internet would be disconnected due to issues, ive had this call a bunch over the past few days, last time I told them they were frauds and id report them, then they just hung up on meBT10 yearsI'm being warned that my internet service is at risk of being cut off if I don’t follow their instructions. They want me to sit in front of my computer and allow them to direct me through various steps. It seems they're blaming my connection issues on something I must do!10 yearsGot a call from 005823 at 9:06 this morning, but they just dropped the line right after I picked up.10 years005823, huh? Totally a scam, so I wasn’t exactly nice and just told them to buzz off!10 yearsThey've rung me up twice today already. Got three calls from them on Tuesday too. Seems like they're getting more pushy, or maybe their options are running out as we become more clued up.10 yearsGot three calls within an hour, all from different folks saying they were from BT and that my account was at risk. I asked for a callback number, they gave me some really long number which when I looked up online, didn’t come up at all. Felt really sketchy.BT10 yearsGot a call from some call centre in Asia saying my BT Internet was about to be cut off. When I told them I’m not with BT, they just replied, “We’re aware, but there’s an issue anyway.” Gave them a piece of my mind without any swearing and ended the call. This is the second time I’ve received this call today.AsiaBT10 yearsJust like 005823, they said hello but then after a moment they quickly said goodbye and ended the call.10 yearsSomebody called saying they were Talk Talk tech support. I got suspicious straight away coz I’m not even a Talk Talk customer. Then they asked who my provider was, so I told them it was a different one, and they said they worked for that lot too!TalkTalk10 yearsTotal scammers, called saying they were from BT and wanted to get into my computer. Told the guy to bugger off, nicely though. If you’ve got a moment, you can chat with them until they realise you’re not falling for their tricks, haha.BT10 yearsGot a call on my home phone around 8:05 in the morning. No one spoke and they just ended the call.10 yearsThey called my home phone but never left a voicemail. Before that, I kept getting calls from 00387109, so I reckon the two are connected.10 yearsGot a call from 005823. Nobody said anything and then it just hung up.10 yearsGot a call at 10.54 this morning from someone claiming to be from an internet provider saying our connection would be disconnected unless they could access our computer. Pretty clear scam, I asked a few questions and then they just ended the call.10 yearsGot a call at 8 in the morning, they claimed to be from TalkTalk and wanted to get into my computer to fix my internet. Total scammers.TalkTalk10 years30/03/2016. Got a call at 10:35am saying my BT service would be cut off. The number was 005 823, which isn’t even a BT number. Total scammers.BT10 yearsGot a call earlier saying my BT landline was about to get cut off, but I don’t even have BT. Was a bit cheeky, to be honest.BT10 yearsGot a call at 7.58 am today, honestly glad I have that BT call blocking feature on my phone.BT10 yearsSome bloke called claiming to be Andy Parker from BT with an ID DCM629152. He told me I’d downloaded dangerous files and needed to get on my computer to fix my internet. Ring came through at 7.20 in the morning. He gave me a number, 0280067215, to call back and check if he was legit. A quick google said it’s either a French mobile or an Aussie landline, so could be dodgy. Reckon ‘Andy’ was trying to trick me. Be warned, definitely a risky call asking to get into your computer.Andy ParkerBTAndy10 yearsGot a call early at 7.15 saying my internet was about to be disconnected.10 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be “from British Telecom” saying there was an issue with my computer and trying to get me to let them in remotely. Pretty obvious scam, just trying to trick people into giving access. Definitely a dodgy number and dangerous, especially for folks who might not know better. Feels like they wanted to steal info or cause harm, so this is definitely illegal stuff. The call happened on 18th March 2016, around 9:20 in the morning.British Telecom10 yearsGot a call saying my bt broadband was about to be disconnected.BT10 yearsGot a call at 12.20 on 15/03/2016 warning me that my BT internet would be cut off because apparently someone had hacked into it.10 yearsThis is the third time they’ve rung me early in the morning, again before 7am today.
