Phone number ☎️ 008000488234 👆 is reported as a nuisance call frequently linked to scammers impersonating BT, often claiming issues with routers or internet security. Callers, sometimes with foreign accents, pressure recipients to enable remote access or provide personal details. Many users report silence upon answering or abrupt hang-ups when challenged. The calls are persistent and seem designed to verify active numbers for follow-up scams, with some recipients noting abusive behaviour if confronted. It is advised not to engage, avoid sharing any personal or device information, and to remain cautious, as legitimate organisations like BT typically do not make unsolicited calls demanding immediate action. Users are encouraged to report these calls and consider blocking the number for protection.

9 yearsI picked up the phone but no one said anything on the other end.9 yearsI keep getting calls from someone claiming to be BT, saying there's a virus on my computer and they need to sort it straight away. I told them I don’t even own a computer, then they just hung up on me. Happens all the time!BT9 yearsGot a call from someone claiming there was an issue with my router. Funny enough, I'd already rung my provider about internet trouble the previous day, so I played along for a bit. The connection was awful, hardly could catch what he was saying, but his accent sounded Indian. When he started insisting I link my computer to their servers, I suspected it was a scam. Then he tried to scare me by saying my internet would be cut off. Before I could tell him he ought to be ashamed and that I was about to cast a spell on him, he just hung up. Just a cheeky bit of fun on my part to unsettle them!India9 yearsSome woman with a funny accent said she was ringing from BT or something like that.
