01217654074 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01217654074 👆 is reported as a persistent source of nuisance calls, primarily scams originating from overseas, particularly India. Callers often impersonate well-known companies such as BT, Microsoft, Virgin, or Sky, typically using poor English or foreign accents. They employ tactics like urgent broadband or computer security threats to manipulate recipients. Many attempts involve silent calls, no message left, or abrupt hang-ups when questioned. Despite users being registered with the Telephone Preference Service, the calls persist, often using varied numbers to evade blocks. The consistent pattern suggests these are boiler room scams aiming to gain remote access or sensitive information. Users are advised to remain cautious, avoid engagement, block the numbers, and report suspicious calls to relevant authorities.

3 yearsI keep getting these annoying scam calls almost twice a day now, and they’re always using fake numbers. Pretty sure they’re from India since I’m registered with BT's Telephone Preference Service, but it doesn’t help with calls coming from abroad.IndiaBT Telephone Preference Service3 yearsI received a rather bothersome call from someone who kept insisting he was representing BT. However, it didn’t take long for me to realise that he was simply trying to pull a fast one on me.BT3 yearsI received a call from an unknown number, and they didn’t bother to leave a voicemail. It feels a bit dodgy to me.3 yearsGot a call from some Indian lady claiming she was with BT's tech team. When I asked her straight up if this was a scam, she just ended the call. Blocked the number right away!BT Technical Department3 yearsGot a call from a bloke with a foreign accent saying he was from "Microsoft" about my computer. When I asked why he was ringing, especially since I'm on the TPS list, he told me it was because I hadn’t replied to a letter they supposedly sent. We had a quick back and forth, then he just hung up - bit of a shame, I was enjoying messing about with him! This wasn’t the first time I got one of these calls, pretty clear it’s just another scam.MicrosoftPreference3 yearsThis bloke kept saying my internet was under some kind of “attack” - seemed totally fake to me, plus he didn't even seem to have a clue who my provider was!3 yearsClaimed they were from BT, but I’m pretty sure they weren’t. Sounded dodgy if you ask me.BT3 yearsOn 16th Oct 2023 around 12.16, I got a call on my landline from the number 01217654074. I answered but didn’t say anything, and neither did the person on the other end. After checking the feedback here, I’m pretty sure it’s just some scammer testing the waters.3 yearsI picked up and there was nothing but silence, then this bloke with an Indian accent introduced himself as Peter Williams. He said something about a Microsoft Windows computer and wanted me to confirm who I was since he already had my name. I kept asking which computer he meant cos the line was really bad, but after a bit he just hung up on me.Peter WilliamsMicrosoft3 yearsI picked up the phone and just caught some bloke jabbering in what sounded like an Asian language, probably chatting with a mate or something. Then suddenly, the line just cut off! With all the weird calls I’ve been getting lately, I reckon this must be some kinda scam, no two ways about it!3 yearsI received a call on my home phone, but I chose not to pick up, and they didn't bother leaving a message. I've been inundated with calls like this recently, all from various numbers, and I make it a point to block each one. It's becoming quite tedious and a complete waste of time!3 years⚠️ Someone pretended to be from BT and it was obviously a scam. They asked to get hold of my phone, which seemed dodgy. I ended the call, but afterwards they kept ringing my landline using different UK numbers. Definitely beware! ⚠️BTUK3 yearsSomeone rang claiming to be from Virgin and asked me to open the Play Store and enter some code. I got a weird feeling about it and just ended up hanging up.VirginPlay Store3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from Sky, but honestly, their English was so hard to understand.
