Phone number ☎️ 01216236854 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number often involving callers falsely claiming to be from Microsoft or BT. Callers, frequently with Indian accents, try to convince individuals that their computer or broadband has serious issues, aiming to gain remote access or personal information. Attempts include confusing messages, pressure to follow instructions, and aggressive responses when challenged. The calls mostly target UK residents, including the elderly, and employ tactics such as silence, unusual recorded messages, or brusque hang-ups if suspicion arises. Recipients are advised to be vigilant, never provide access or details, and block the number. This appears to be a well-organised nuisance scam ring operating with impunity, posing significant risks to vulnerable individuals.

9 yearsGot a call from a guy with a strong Indian accent saying he was from BT. I told him I couldn’t really catch what he was trying to say, and then he handed the phone to a woman, also with an Indian accent. She then started telling me stuff about my BT account - total scam, for sure!BT9 yearsGot a call about some issue with my internet. The person sounded really cheeky and, when I questioned them, they actually said they were doing something illegal! Proper rude as well.9 yearsI really can't figure out who this individual is, as my folks are being harassed on a daily basis.9 yearsGot a call saying it’s BT with some big issue on my broadband.
