8 yearsGot a call from 01214746042 - sounded like an Indian accent. Turned out to be one of those broadband scams pretending to be from Openreach. Watch out!Openreach8 yearsGot a call from someone with an Indian accent, sounded like a total scam.8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be BT tech support. Haven't been with BT for ages! They knew a few bits about me though, which worries me since I've had info leaked from a company I haven't used in years. Could be connected, I reckon.BT8 yearsGot a call from a woman claiming to be with BT. She said my router was being used by others, which seems to be a common scam now. I just hung up straight away. Then she phoned back a couple more times, but I didn’t pick up after that.BT8 yearsGot a call off this number and a bloke said he was from BT. Sounded dodgy as hell! Seriously, just don’t pick up if it rings.BT8 yearsGot called 3 times in less than 2 hours from that number today. I hung up on the first couple of calls but I’m just not picking up anymore.8 yearsGot a call from this number but I didnt answer, still getting used to my new phone and hardly know my own number! A few days back it was the same number on my home phone. My 15 year old answered it though, he’s a bit smarter than me and told the woman nicely that he knew it was a scam and asked her to stop calling.8 yearsThis number has been blocked by me already. I received three calls from it.8 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Asian accent claiming he was from BT, saying my router was acting up. Weird thing is, he actually knew my name, but I haven’t been a BT customer for quite a while now. I told him so and just hung up. Since then, this number has rung me twice more in the last day, but when I answered the last two times, no one was there. Seems a bit sketchy to me, especially since they seem to have some info, even if it’s old. Proper dodgy, if you ask me.British TelecomBT8 yearsGot a couple calls today, didn’t pick up the first one. When I finally did, the woman said she was from BT and said my router was being accessed by strangers. I told her I actually work for BT and asked who she was, then she just ended the call.BT8 yearsThey rang me again and this time actually talked. The bloke claimed he was from BT’s tech support and said he wanted to help because loads of people were apparently using my internet. He insisted they’re really savvy with computers and don’t need any passcodes. I just hung up on him straight away. Pretty sure it’s a scam!BT8 yearsGot a call from a guy with a strong Indian accent claiming his name was Jason Smith, which I found a bit odd and asked him about it. He said he worked for BT and there was a problem with my internet security. When I mentioned I was on the TPS list, he replied, “Yeah, I know, I'm from BT,” then burst out laughing in a really creepy way before hanging up. I reckon he’s linked to some firm called Accostings based in New Delhi that tries to con folks into buying bogus antivirus programmes.Jason SmithBTTelephone Preference ServiceAccostingsNew Delhi8 yearsReally nice bloke, sounds like he’s from somewhere in Asia. When I told him I’m on the telephone preference list, he just shouted some mad swear word at me and slammed the phone down. Pretty sure he’s not working for BT or anything like that.BT8 yearsThis number has been blocked by me after it rang three times.8 yearsFor the past day, I’ve been getting calls from this number non stop. It doesn’t always go through, but when it does, it’s one of those classic BT tech support scams. Normally I just hang up straight away. One time I played along and said “Oh fantastic, is this about my internet not working?” The bloke said yes, so I asked “If I hand over my bank info, will you sort it?” His answer was “Yeah, just give me the details!” I wasn’t having any of it and told him to get lost!BT8 yearsGot calls from this number like five times within a couple of hours, but they never bothered to leave a voicemail or anything.8 yearsI picked up the phone, said hello, but no one said a word on the other end. It was so weird, like they were there but just quiet. Totally left me confused!8 yearsI pick up and there’s just silence, it’s really frustrating.8 yearsSomebody called saying they were Jasmine from BT Openreach. I couldn’t believe someone from a telecoms firm wouldn’t know about the TPS, so I mentioned it. They quickly ended the call after that. Honestly, it seemed dodgy, felt more like a scam than a genuine sales pitch.JasmineOpenreach8 yearsThey called me two times within half an hour and every time I pick up, there’s just silence! Doesn’t help that I can’t block the number since it’s coming through my landline. Proper annoying.8 yearsGot a call about 20 minutes ago, caller said he was from BT but the number showed as ‘international’. We dont even have BT so seemed suspicious. Best to just hang up, reckon it could be a dodgy call.BT8 yearsGot a call from some bloke with a foreign accent claiming to be from BT. He told me there were about 600 people connected to my router and said I had to enter some code on my PC to fix it. As if I’m falling for that!BTSubmit Your Own Report (0121 471 4001)
