Totally a scam.Openreach8 yearsSeriously, 01229812378 appears to be messing with caller IDs. BT really lets its users down once more.BT8 yearsI keep getting calls from 0122-981-2378, usually just abandoned ones. Seriously, there should be some law that forces phone companies to block these scam numbers. It’s getting really annoying!8 yearsSome woman called claiming to be from BT Openreach, saying hackers got into my IP address and can spy on everything I do on my laptop, stealing all my info. The problem is, I’m not even a BT customer! She kept going on about how she could fix it for me but was really pushy and then just hung up. It’s such a nightmare and honestly, pretty frightening for older folks. I’m really concerned someone elderly might actually believe it and get caught out.BT8 yearsThey rang me about five times over the past couple of days. Picked up on the last one but there was silence. Looked up the number here and decided to block it now.8 yearsSo, this person claimed to be from BT Openreach, saying my router was messed up and causing big issues with their servers, and if I didn’t let them remotely access my laptop, they’d cut my internet off. Pretty obvious scam, right? Told her I’m not with BT (which I’m definitely not), but she insisted BT Openreach deals with all ISPs. I just ended the call there.BT OpenreachBT8 yearsSupposedly from Openreach, they say. The number was really local, like just round the corner from my house. I checked it out and it’s meant to be from the street just beside mine. Total fibbers.8 yearsGot another call from some bloke named Jason who claimed he was from BT. I cut him off quick, told him I’ve never had anything to do with BT. He got a bit stroppy and said, “how can you say that?” Looks like these scumbags are just trying to sneak into your computer with some rubbish excuse. Don’t fall for it!JasonBT8 yearsso funny, someones been pretending to be from bt openreach - yeah right! ive had loads of calls from different numbers lately doing exactly the same thing. couldn’t be more obvious.8 yearsThey've called me three times already today. It wouldn’t be such a hassle if it wasn’t for the fact that they seem like fraudsters posing as BT Openreach, trying to get into your computer or laptop. Proper hackers, this lot.BT8 yearsGot a call from some scammers claiming to be from BT Openreach, telling me my internet was about to be cut off because of hackers or something. I told them that was rubbish and hung up. Honestly, why do these con artists keep getting away with this stuff?BT Openreach8 yearsGot a call again today, the third one in just a couple days. Caller claimed to be from BT Openreach and they used my local area code to make it seem legit.BT Openreach8 yearsGot a call this arvo, my missus picked up and they said something about BT Openreach and needing a payment or our broadband would get cut off. When I grabbed the phone to see who was on the line, they just ended the call, which was a bit odd. The voice sounded like an Indian lady from some dodgy overseas call centre, and the connection was pretty rubbish too. Oddly enough, the number looked like it was local, which you'd think would mean better line quality.BT OpenreachIndia8 yearsGot two calls in less than two hours, both from India. I honestly couldn’t make out what they were saying. They were asking for all my personal info, saying someone was messing with my broadband. I just ended the call straight away. Really frustrating, I thought these sorts of calls were meant to have been cracked down on by now.8 yearsthey must not of wanted to talk cos they never said who they were, which is why our bt t#### blocked the call straight away,Submit Your Own Report (01229 812378)
