Reports on phone number 01179508204
2 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Indian accent claiming to be from my broadband company. He said there was an issue and asked me to grab my mobile so he could fix it remotely. Then it got weirder - he started telling me he’d purchased my late dad’s house, who apparently died in a fire, and that I’d be getting some assets sent to me in the post. Totally sketchy. I didn’t give him any details, and after a bit he just hung up. Nothing he said made any sense at all!2 yearsGot a call just after noon, around 12.25, and there was all this noise in the background, like loads of people talking. A woman was making weird, unclear sounds too. I said "hello" twice and then they just hung up. Pretty sure it was one of those call centre things.2 yearsGot a call from 02 01 25 just earlier today.2 yearsI got a call from someone with a thick Aussie accent claiming to be from Microsoft. They said they found proof someone was using my computer for gambling. I told them my computer was actually with the repair shop, not at home. Then they asked if I had a mobile phone so they could send me some info. Whenever I tried to ask them stuff, they just talked over me like they were stuck on a script and didn’t know how to handle any real questions. It felt like they weren’t genuine at all.Microsoft2 yearsThis morning, I got three calls back to back. Nobody answered and they didn’t even leave a voicemail. Feels pretty risky, especially if it’s part of some sort of repeated harassment.2 yearsThey suddenly went quiet and then the call just dropped.2 yearsI got a call from a bloke this morning telling me he was with BT and asked if I could fetch my mobile phone!BT2 yearsSome bloke rang me saying he was from BT Openreach, which I find weird cos they never call like that. He tried to convince me there was some dangerous internet thing happening, just by looking at an IP starting with 192, which is just the usual IP all home routers have. Felt like a total load of rubbish to me.BT OpenreachSubmit Your Own Report (0117 950 8204)
