Phone number ☎️ 006544487 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance number linked to scam calls claiming to be from BT or Virgin Media about suspicious internet or wifi usage, often between midnight and early morning. Callers typically pressure recipients to restart or alter their routers or computers, sometimes providing fake security or customer IDs to appear legitimate. The calls often come from offshore call centres with unclear or broken English and sometimes involve long silences. Many users find the number suspicious due to odd digit counts or numbers too short to be genuine. Numerous callers hang up when challenged or asked for proof, and no genuine messages or follow-ups are left. Most deem these calls as fraudulent attempts to gain remote access or personal information.

8 yearsHad a rather dodgy call earlier. The bloke claimed to be from BT and insisted that my Wi-Fi was being misused for some sort of nefarious dealings during the wee hours, from midnight till four. He even had the cheek to provide a so-called security licence number and wanted me to verify it. I didn’t entertain any of it, though; felt it was all a load of nonsense!BT8 yearsI didn't pick up when they called, but I used 1471 to find out who it was. The number seemed rather brief and not quite in line with a proper phone number.8 yearsGot a call at about 9:30 in the morning a few times. No voicemail left. When we picked up, there was a long silence - it sounded like it was from a call centre abroad. The person had an Indian accent and claimed to be from BT, but we don’t even use BT, so it was clearly a scam. I just ended the call. Then I restarted the router to switch the IP address.BT8 yearsSomeone rang me saying they were with BT Openreach but seemed like a total scam to me.8 yearsReceived a call from that number around 7:50 AM today. When I answered, there was just silence for a good five seconds before the caller abruptly disconnected. Quite curious, really!8 yearsJust grab a phone that shows the number when they ring. If it's some dodgy one, just ignore it. Real folks will usually leave you a voicemail anyway. Easy as that, really!8 yearsReceived a call from someone claiming to be from the BT headquarters, insisting that my internet was being interfered with by hackers. The chap mentioned I should power on my computer, despite me being with Virgin Media. I told him straight that I've got a bit of IT know-how and I'm not naïve enough to input any IP addresses he tried to give me. Not long after, the call mysteriously dropped. Quite the coincidence, wouldn't you say?BTVirgin Media8 yearsI got a call from a bloke named Michael Orr claiming he worked for BT. He said they’d been working nearby and noticed some dodgy activity linked to my IP address. He asked me to turn on my computer to look into it, but I told him I couldn’t. Now, he says he’s going to send someone round in a couple of days. We’ll wait and see what happens!Michael OrrBT8 yearsgot a call from this number a bit ago, but couldnt make out anything he was saying, so i just ended the call. feels like a scam to me!8 yearsI got a call from a guy, claimed his name was Jason, and said he was worried about my BT internet speed being super slow. He insisted I had to report it or something. He tried to keep the chat going but quickly got fed up and ended the call. Pretty clear scam to me. Ironically, my internet with BT used to be really sluggish, which is exactly why I ditched them ages ago. So yeah, total scam alert.JasonBT8 yearsJuly 2nd at about 9:30, I got a call from a number with a strange amount of digits. I didn’t pick up and it went to voicemail, but there was no message left. Kinda makes me think it was probably some kind of scam.8 yearsThese calls are such a pain! Just gets on my nerves every time.8 yearsJust got a call from this really pushy guy with an Indian accent claiming hackers are accessing my computer in the early hours between 1:30 and 4 am. He tried to convince me he was legit by giving a customer ID that, supposedly, only BT and I are meant to know. I said I'd ring BT to double-check and get back to him, but wouldn’t you know it, he was calling from a number that doesn’t accept incoming calls. That alone made me suspicious. Honestly, I don’t think BT would be *that* fussed or pushy about their customers - felt like a total scam to me!IndiaBT8 yearsHad a bloke on the phone claiming to be from BT, saying someone’s been using my internet from about 2am till 4am. It was really hard to make out what he was saying. I told him to send me something in writing about it, and then he just went quiet and hung up on me.BT8 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with BT Openreach but the number they used only had 9 digits (006544487), which felt a bit dodgy. I didn’t hang about and just ended the call thinking it might be a scam.8 yearsSo someone told me they were from Virgin Media, but I noticed another IP is hooked up to my internet. Weird thing is, they're using my connection every night from about 2 in the morning until 4. Bit annoying, right?Virgin Media8 yearsSomeone called saying they were from BT, claiming there was some dodgy IP activity on my internet. They tried to get me to change settings on my router. Total scam, watch out!BT8 yearsBit odd that this number’s just got 9 digits, 006544487 - feels incomplete or something!8 yearsI'm situated in the North West of England, and this number tried to get in touch with me yesterday while I was out. They didn’t leave a voicemail, which is rather annoying. I’m thinking that I might just block the number, especially since it rang my landline.North WestEnglandSubmit Your Own Report (44487)
