There was quite a bit of background chatter, plus the person had an accent that was unfamiliar to me, so I decided to end the call.

A short while ago, I received a call from a man with an Indian accent claiming he was from BT, insisting that my computer was under attack. He asked me to power on my screen so he could "demonstrate" the issue. I firmly informed him that my computer was perfectly fine, and there was no way I would switch it on for him to 'prove' anything!

I received a call from a chap with an Indian accent inquiring about our BT internet service. The background noise was quite chaotic, with multiple voices chattering away. In any case, we don’t actually subscribe to BT, so I swiftly ended the conversation without elaborating any further.

This number keeps ringing all the time, it’s a private one and really annoying for whoever lives here. Pretty sure it’s some kind of scam, so I’d say don’t bother calling it.

They called me up and already knew who I was, then started talking about internet security. I just ended the call straight away.
