Phone number โ๏ธ 01233281270 ๐ is reported as a persistent scam operation where callers impersonate BT technical support to alarm recipients about supposed internet or security issues. They often provide a call-back number that is linked to repeated fraudulent activity. The callers use various names, sometimes with accents for added authenticity, and frequently pressure victims to access their computers or provide personal information. Multiple victims have noted the same call-back number and suspicious behaviour, with some even receiving calls during inconvenient times or involving minors. Victims are advised to remain cautious, never share personal or computer access details, and verify any such calls independently by using official BT contact channels or trusted resources online. This scam is widespread, highly organised, and should be treated with utmost caution.
Reports on phone number 01233281270
6 yearsI wasn’t around when those scammers rung again, so my 9-year-old daughter answered the call. Even then, they carried on with their dodgy routine - honestly, they’ve got no shame or ethics at all. It’s disgusting how these lot operate, but frustratingly there’s no proper way to stop them since they just change their tricks. Thankfully, my daughter got scared and hung up the phone. Later, they tried ringing me again and attempted the same nonsense. Watch out for these people, they’re total charlatans.6 yearsSo I got a call from this bloke with an Indian accent, number was 0121 797 1750. He claimed to be from BT tech support saying there were issues with my phone line, but BT isn’t even my provider. He asked about what service I have at home and stuff. I said I’d ring back later and asked for their contact number. He gave me 0123 3281270. After waiting a bit and looking it up, I’m starting to think it was just a spam call.BT6 yearsI got a call from someone named "Jacob Teller" using the number 01292 710521. As soon as I asked for a supervisor, they passed me onto a bloke called "David Wilson" on 01233 281270. I gave David a real earful about the dodgy calls they’re sending out. He didn’t really try to defend himself and just laughed like I was wasting my time. Told him I reckon karma will catch up with them one day. I also said I’d share their number online - which I have now. After that, I made about ten annoying calls back to them to calm my nerves. These scammers are the worst.Jacob TellerDavid Wilson6 yearsLike quite a few others here, I got a call from someone named 'Edward' using the number 01688 024402. He claimed to be from BT’s tech support, warning me my internet was infected with malware and messing up their main server. His accent was Asian, which I suppose is meant to make it sound more legit, considering some BT techs are based abroad. He wanted to put me through to a ‘senior adviser’, but I asked for a callback number instead. The one he gave me was 01233 281270. I’d never bothered looking up a phone number before, but I’m glad I did this time - it really helped. Cheers for the site! Definitely not ringing him back...EdwardBT6 yearsJust had a call from someone called ‘Eton Wilson’ - what a ridiculous name, could have at least tried an Asian one! He told me to open my laptop because apparently I’m messing with the BT signal around here. Hilarious, I don’t even use BT! Then he went on about BT supporting all internet providers and him working for them. He sounded really believable, even gave me a reference number when I rang back to speak with him directly - all that after I told him I’m wary of scam calls! The number he called from was 01224 415528, and the one to ring back on was 01233281270. Watch out folks! There’s more than one way to catch a virus these days... and this one’s definitely up to no good! Cheers, Donna ๐กโค๏ธEton WilsonBTDonna6 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from BT on an Edinburgh number 0131 796 3785. They told me my computer had a security problem. I asked them for a number to ring back on and he gave me 01233 281270, said it was from Ashford, Kent. I've blocked both numbers and reported them now.BTEdinburghAshfordKent6 yearsGot a call on my phone from 01706 193140, some bloke who said he was Thomas Gray from BT, spoke with an Indian accent. Claimed my computer was infected with nasty software. When I mentioned I'd ring back, he passed me a different number, 01233281270. I usually ask if their mums know they’re up to dodgy business, and that’s when they hang up sharpish. No way I’m bothering to call them again!Thomas GrayBT6 yearsI had a call earlier from the number 01244 229892, where the person said they were from BT. I told them I’d ring back and they gave me this number to call. Luckily, I looked it up online first and it’s obvious it’s a scam.BT6 yearsJust got a phone from someone claiming to be BT tech support on 01969 171768, talking about issues with my internet and WIFI. They tried to get me to fire up my laptop but I said I was busy and asked for a contact number to ring them back, it all felt a bit fishy. The number they gave me to call was 012332 81270. The bloke asked when I’d ring again and said if I didn’t, he’d give me another ring tomorrow.BT6 yearsToday I got a call from a bloke who said his name was Andrew Wilson, claiming to be from BT about some issues with my internet. He sounded quite believable at first, but something felt off. He then said he needed to remotely access my computer to fix the problem. I said no way, refused to share any details or let him on my machine. Told him he could be anyone and I’d need to check it out myself before wasting any more time. He told me to ring back on 01233281270 and ask for Andrew Wilson, giving me a job reference number. Oddly, he phoned me from a different number: 01790852862, which is listed under Spilsby, and that made me even more suspicious. I’ve tried looking up that number but can’t find it linked to BT at all. Pretty sure it was a spam call, so I’m not bothering to call them back.Andrew WilsonBT6 yearsThis number rang me up saying someone was trying to break into our internet system and that we should log into a device to sort it out. Seemed pretty dodgy to me. I asked for a contact number to call back but it just rang a couple of times and went dead. They never asked for any real verification or info about our internet service. Definitely stay cautious with these calls.6 yearsJust got a call on my mobile from someone claiming to be with BT but they didn’t know a single thing about my actual BT account. Same frustrating situation here.BT6 yearsSomeone rang claiming to be from BT and told me there was a serious hack on my account that needed sorting out straight away.BT6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be BT tech support about strange stuff happening on my internet and supposed faults. Seemed a bit off to me.BT6 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with BT, telling me my connection wasn’t safe or something like that. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.BT6 yearsSomeone rang me pretending to be from British Telecom. They were trying to convince me there was a problem with my line, but I didn’t buy it at all. Pretty dodgy if you ask me!BT6 yearsGot a ring from a woman calling herself Suzanne Smith, saying she was calling from London at 81 Newgate Street (EC1A7AJ) and gave me this number: 01233281270. She said there’d been some dodgy activity on my internet account and that malware had been downloaded onto my system. When I mentioned that the 01233 code isn’t actually London, she told me it was from an internet-based number. She also claimed my husband had given her my home phone and internet details - but luckily, I’d just spoken to him, and he’d had a call from her too and was suspicious, so he didn’t share a thing. She kept pushing for my info, but I didn’t give her any. Total scam!Suzanne SmithLondonNewgate StreetEC1A7AJ6 yearsGot a call claiming they were from BT saying they needed to sort out my internet.BT6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with BT, said there was an issue with my internet, but I reckon it was a scam.BTSubmit Your Own Report (01233 281270)
