8 yearsSo far today, I’ve received seven calls from this number. The first few times it showed up on my caller ID, but later it just came up as International. I just let all of them ring through to voicemail, and they ended up hanging up. If you can see the number on your caller display, best not to answer.International8 yearsI got calls from this number (probably spoofed) several times yesterday morning. Each time the caller was different, but they all had Indian accents. They said they were from BT and warned that my internet service would be cut off. When I questioned them, they just got rude and ended the call. Definitely a scam, no doubt about it.BT8 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be BT Openreach, saying that people were using my internet and it would have to be shut down for 10 days unless I let them into my computer. I told them I was aware it was a scam (shoutout to everyone who warned about this here) and ended the call. They rang back immediately and kept calling loads of times throughout the day. This morning they called again, but I warned them I’d report them if they didn’t stop.BT Openreach8 yearsGot a call from a number pretending to be BT Openreach saying they were watching my IP address and that some folks were accessing my router.

They just ended the call after that.BT8 yearsBloody idiots, honestly.8 yearsGot a call from someone wanting me to download software to test my BT internet.
