Just like loads of others here, got a call on my home phone. Someone called Shirley said I should tap 1 to speak to a tech person. Sounds like another scam to me, right?

Got a call from a robot voice saying my IP got hacked or something! They told me not to press one, but I did anyway and it ended up being some scam trying to charge me money. Watch out and don’t fall for it!

Just got a call on my home phone, and it was a lady named Shirley telling me to hit 1 if I wanted to speak to a technician. Sounded dodgy to me, probably another scam like the others have said.

Lately I've been getting loads of calls from people claiming my computer is hacked and telling me to press 1. The voices always sound foreign. It's been really annoying with these scams blowing up my phone. you'd think the phone providers could block these numbers or stop them somehow since they have to be handing out these phone numbers obviously.

Got a call from some automated female voice saying her name was Shirley, claiming someone was trying to hack my internet from all over the globe. She warned that my service would be cut off within a day and told me to press 1 to talk to an engineer. Yeah right, Shirley, not falling for that!

Got a call just now claiming my router was hacked from multiple countries. If that was true, surely they'd try to contact me properly. Definitely sounds like a scam to me.

Just got a call from 01226750808, like 8:40 this morning, second day in a row now. An american lady’s voice said my internet’s been hacked and if I don’t press 1 within a day, they’ll cut it off. Definitely some scam, so heads up to everyone I know. Don’t fall for it!

Watch out for scammers who want to sneak past your firewall to steal your cookies and access your hard drive. Never listen to what they tell you, but feel free to play along and waste loads of their time till they decide to hang up!

This is the third time they’ve rung me this week. Some Indian call centre pretending to be from the TPS, asking if I’m getting any nuisance calls. Then they wanted me to confirm my name and address, saying they can block international calls now. I told them, if I’m already on the list, why do you need my details? Ended the call pretty sharpish. If they ring again, I’m definitely telling them to do one. Seriously fed up with this - it needs to stop.

Got a recorded call saying my IP address was at risk. Pretty sure it was just another scam.

Got a call from a number using some kind of auto dialler, voice had a funny foreign accent and said they were from a phone blocking company, which I’m sure isn’t a real thing. They asked if I’d been getting annoying calls lately. I’m on the TPS so I knew it was a scam straight away. Told them yes just to see what they’d say, then they just hung up on me. Definitely dodgy.

I got a call from someone claiming to be my internet company, saying my IP had been compromised and they needed to update my router and IP address. The voice sounded like some automated lady, saying it was free and asking me to press 1 to proceed. When I didn’t press anything, they just hung up. Then, almost immediately, another call came from 0122006879 saying it was TalkTalk and my internet would be cut off unless I talked to their tech team. I didn't bother and just ended the call.

This number is total rubbish, a complete scam if you ask me. Honestly, I can't think of anything else to add except that these people should definitely be taken to court.
