Phone number ☎️ 01218790998 👆 is reported as a source of scam calls involving automated messages warning of immediate broadband termination due to supposed fraudulent activity linked to the recipient's IP address. Callers impersonate well-known UK internet providers, urging recipients to press a number to speak with a technician. These calls are widely recognised as fraudulent attempts to gain remote computer access and personal information. Recipients are advised not to engage, to block the number, and to remain cautious about unsolicited calls claiming broadband issues or illegal activity on their account. Using call-blocking services or anti-spam systems is recommended to avoid disruption. Overall, these calls should be treated as scams and not genuine provider communications.

7 yearsGot a call from a woman’s automated voice saying my internet would be cut off straight away because of some fraud done through my IP address. She told me to press 1 to speak to a technician. I just blocked the number.7 yearsI got a call from some number pretending to be BT, warning me about illegal stuff happening on my router and saying my internet would get cut off in a day. Naturally, I pressed 1 and got through to someone at what sounded like a call centre. They told me there was an issue with my router and asked to connect to my computer. I just hung up straight away and blocked the number.BT7 yearsJust got a recorded call claiming to be from TalkTalk saying my broadband will be cut off unless I press 1 to talk to someone. I’m pretty sure my internet isn’t actually getting disconnected today??TalkTalk7 yearsGot a call claiming there's a problem with my broadband, pretending to be from BT. Totally a scam, don't fall for it!BT7 yearsI picked up a call on my landline and it was one of those automated messages saying my IP address was at risk. They told me to press 1 to fix the issue. I didn’t fall for it and just hung up straight away. Definitely a scam, so I went ahead and blocked the number too!7 yearsOn 12/11/2019, at 11:51, I got a call that my BT 1572 anti-spam blocked after just one ring. This service automatically blocks loads of scam or spam callers, and it has a massive database of numbers to catch them. I’m guessing this was just another unwanted call but since it was stopped so quickly, I couldn't tell who tried to ring. Also, just a heads up, the 1572 free blocking service is only available if you’re with BT.BTSubmit Your Own Report (0121 879 0998)
