I just received a call from 01174059617, claiming to represent a Bristol line about my life insurance policy. I smelled a rat immediately; it felt like a classic scam. I didn’t hesitate to disconnect.

This lady called claiming to be from Virgin Media and said there was a problem with my internet security. I told her if she could really see an issue, then she should sort it out herself. After that, I just hung up on her.

like some others have said, it's a dodgy online scam trying to take over your pcs, phones, tablets and such. some bloke with an indian accent rang me, i just chatted rubbish with him to run down the clock. he said he was from virgin media. i told him i wasn't their customer, then he started spinning a mad tale about how my internet company somehow uses virgin's lines and there's some fault messing with the connection. claimed it was his role to help me fix it. lol, i just hung up on him.

Got a call from someone in India trying to scam me about my internet. Definitely dodgy, had me suspicious straight away. They kept going on about problems with my connection, but I wasn’t having any issues at all. Just ignore if you get a call like that!

Got a call from India, some sort of "your internet's slow" routine. Honestly, the connection was dreadful, makes me wonder how they even manage to trick anyone when the chat is that hard to follow!

Got a call from 01174059651, some scammer claiming to be from Virgin. You could hear a bunch of noise in the background, like a busy office or call centre. When I told them I’d already called Virgin and they weren’t legit, the woman got a bit rude, going on about how they work with loads of different numbers. I told her the same number keeps calling me and it’s definitely not Virgin, then she just hung up on me. Honestly, don’t fall for their tricks, folks.

Got a ring from this number earlier and some bloke said he was from Virgin Media, calling himself Sam Williams. Funny thing is, he's definitely not any Sam Williams I know. Feels a bit dodgy, like a scam for sure!

Got a call from someone pretending to be with BT or Virgin, said my internet was acting up. I humoured them a bit, but when I didn’t take it seriously, they started raising their voice. Quite a weird experience!

What a right dodgy situation I found myself in! A chap named Mr Wilson, with a rather dubious accent, claimed to be from Virgin Broadband, warning me about some supposed nefarious activities linked to my IP address. Naturally, I told him that if he wanted to have a natter, he’d need to pass through my security checks first. He continued to spew an incessant three-digit number, sticking to his script like glue, while insisting I call from London. It took quite a bit of pushing for him to attempt to answer my queries. He repeatedly insisted it was a security call from Virgin. In the end, I clocked him as a scammer and ended the call. The number he used was 01174059151, which I promptly erased from my phone after he refused to provide me with his own! It was around 11.50 AM on 7th May 2022. Cheers, Gerry. P.S. Just to clarify, I have no issues whatsoever with Virgin Broadband; their service is top-notch!

I received a phone call from this number and I couldn't shake the feeling it was a scam. The chap on the line had a noticeable foreign accent, which raised my suspicions, so I decided to disconnect the call. If it were a legitimate call, I reckon they’d ring back, though I highly doubt that will happen; I’m convinced it's all part of a scam. Interestingly, this week alone, I’ve had three calls from various numbers.

I’ve received three calls from this number today, and I’m quite exasperated, to say the least. My Virgin Media service seems to be perfectly alright, yet I can’t shake the feeling of being relentlessly pursued by whoever is behind these calls. It’s truly annoying!

I received a rather dodgy phone call from someone claiming to represent BT Openreach. He insisted he was reaching out to assist me with supposed issues I had with my router and how he could enhance my internet speed. The only trouble is, I'm not even a BT customer! It felt very much like a scam. Quite bold of them, really!
