The person claimed they were from BT and said our internet had been hacked recently, asking for access. I told them we hadn’t had any issues and that all our IT is handled by an external local firm. Then he just said “have a nice day” and hung up. Later, we looked up the number here and saw similar reports. I passed everything on to our IT team, who also checked this site. Shortly after, the same number rang one of my colleagues directly. Now the IT folks are investigating what’s going on.BT9 yearsI got calls from the same number two days running.
