I received a call from a gentleman with an accent that seemed to have Indian roots. He struggled to say my surname, repeatedly asking for Mrs. ******. Curious, I inquired who was on the line, but all they wanted was a simple yes or no answer. Sensing something was off, I hung up and promptly decided to block the number—most likely a scam!

I got a call around 8:46 in the morning, claiming that my broadband was under attack and being accessed by an unauthorised individual. The chap on the line insisted I should hop onto my computer to address the issue. I quickly piped up, saying, "I find that hard to believe! I'm off to work, so why don't you actually get yourself a proper job instead of harassing me, you scoundrel?" and promptly ended the call.

Someone who's been troublesome

A caller purporting to be from Zone Wall contacted me, insisting that I needed to improve my computer's performance. I recognised the number, as I had received a similar call just the other week from someone claiming to be associated with Virgin Media, who alarmingly suggested my broadband was compromised. The person on the line couldn't even confirm my name, citing data protection regulations as an excuse. It’s shocking how these individuals operate; they clearly lack any sense of ethics and are nothing short of a nuisance.

I've had some mysterious calls from an unknown number—twice in the past few days, actually. This time, they’ve reached my landline, whereas before, it was my mobile that was getting the nuisance!

Received a call at 0938 from the number 01235 619307. I answered with a friendly "Hello," but was met with utter silence, which prompted me to hang up right away.

They keep ringing me at all hours, it’s rather tiresome! I reckon it’s about time I invest in a call blocker, don’t you think?

Received a call from a lady with a foreign accent representing BT Openreach, inquiring about my broadband service.

Received a call purporting to be from Amazon's security team, but honestly, it's a lot of nonsense because Amazon doesn't possess our home phone number at all.

Received a call from an Indian woman who insisted she was ringing regarding an issue with my internet service. She claimed to represent Virgin Media. However, when I pressed her for more details, she abruptly ended the call. Definitely fraudulent behaviour.

I had a peculiar experience recently with a woman who had a strong accent, surrounded by what sounded like a chorus of other foreign voices in the background. She claimed to be calling from Amazon, but I firmly told her, ‘That’s not true,’ and lo and behold, the call cut off immediately. Definitely a con, in my opinion.

Just another dodgy con artist, really.

Someone rang my folks, claiming to be from Virgin, inquiring about the speed of our internet connection.

Just had another encounter with the typical 'OpenReach' broadband con. This is the second time today, mind you (the first call came from a blocked number).

This number rang me thrice this morning, and on each occasion, the line went silent as soon as I picked up. Quite frustrating, really!

Utterly quiet! Quite infuriating, I must say. It goes completely silent if you fail to engage.

I'm really pleased I decided to check this site. They've called me several times but never bother to leave a message. I've gone ahead and blocked them now!

01235619307 - I've received multiple calls from this number, claiming to be from Virgin Media, informing me that there's an issue with my IP address. They've already rang me three times this morning!

This number keeps ringing my phone incessantly. Curiosity got the better of me, and I answered, only to find silence on the other end! I'd recommend steering clear of this one or blocking it if you can!

Received a call from this number, purportedly representing BT Openreach, saying that my broadband was under threat. They prompted me to verify my upload and download speeds. Then, they passed me over to a so-called senior engineer. What a complete sham. Stay vigilant, everyone!

Received a call from a bloke with an "Indian accent" who introduced himself with a rather cheeky European "Mickey Mouse" moniker. I endured his lengthy spiel for about twenty seconds before I decided enough was enough and ended the call.

Allegedly, it’s from Virgin Media.

I received a call where they greeted me with "hallo" and then just left the line hanging. It's a bit dodgy, if you ask me. Can’t say I trust that sort of behaviour!

I received a call from 0802 on the 2nd of February. I didn't utter a word, and the line went completely silent. When I tried to return the call, I was met with a message stating, "Service not available at present." Definitely a scam! I’ve found that when faced with an unfamiliar number, it’s often best to keep quiet; most of the time, the scammers will simply cut the line. Occasionally, I play along and throw in a few security queries to see their reaction—unsurprisingly, they never respond! If I keep probing, they usually hang up on me. It’s rather amusing to waste their time for a change!

I've received three calls from this call centre purporting to represent Virgin Media. Definitely a scam!

I picked up the phone, and there was absolute silence on the other end—how cheeky! 😂

Oh, here we go again with the Indian call centres! The moment I hear that distinct Indian accent, accompanied by all sorts of racket in the background, and they introduce themselves as Gary, Rupert or even Tintin, I’m out! 😂 The phone's off quicker than you can say "phone scam". It’s clearly another attempt to either con me out of my cash or harvest my details.

Had a missed call at half past seven this morning. When I tried returning the call, the line went silent - no answer at all. Did a bit of digging online and it seems this number is linked to scams. Best to steer clear!

The call was dropped before anyone spoke a word.

I received a call purporting to be from BT Openreach, claiming there were issues with my internet connection. However, when I posed a few questions for clarification, they abruptly ended the call. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

I received a call from someone claiming to be from Virgin, inquiring about my internet security. I requested him to verify my account number, and he abruptly ended the call.

There was no voicemail left after the call.

Got a call at eight-thirty this morning, but they hung up just as I reached for the phone – so infuriating! Tried using 1471, but it didn’t shed any light on who it was.

I received a call from an Asian gentleman claiming to be from Virgin Media, and he mentioned some unusual activity on my broadband connection. I informed him that we don’t actually have Virgin as our provider, and then he abruptly ended the call. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

I received a call from someone with a rather peculiar accent that I couldn't place.

It was rather peculiar—when I answered, all I could hear was the sound of what seemed like a group chatting, with one individual chuckling in the background. Not a single word was exchanged in reply to my greeting. Quite baffling!

A lady rang me claiming to be from Virgin's technical support, stating there were issues with my broadband connection. I had a hunch it was a scam, so I decided to grill her a bit to confirm her credentials. She recited some generic nonsense, including a lengthy number she claimed was my identifier. I challenged her, saying that if she really worked for Virgin, she ought to know my customer number without hesitation. At that point, she abruptly ended the call.

I received a phone call from the number 01235619307 on the 1st of February, 2022. The caller claimed to represent Virgin and mentioned an issue with my broadband service. The person on the other end was a woman, and her accent seemed to suggest she was from an Asian background. When I requested her to clarify her statements, she abruptly ended the call. Later, at around 8:40 this morning on the 2nd of February, the same number tried to reach me again, but upon my picking up, they hung up once more.

I received a call roughly an hour back regarding my BT broadband. I decided to hang up and reached out to BT’s online chat for clarification. They promptly verified that it was indeed a scam.

The moment I picked up the phone, the call disconnected.

I find it incredibly frustrating when a call comes through, and as soon as I pick up, it disconnects. What is it with these bothersome pests who feel the need to harass us with their incessant ringing? It’s utterly infuriating!

Gave me a bell at seven in the morning but left no message. Quite frustrating, to say the least!

Received a call at 8 o'clock this morning, but they didn’t bother to leave a voicemail. It's rather peculiar since I got a call from a number just one digit different last week. Quite frustrating, really!

I answered the phone, but there was just silence on the other end. I didn’t utter a word, and then the line went completely quiet.

No response received. Call was abruptly terminated.

Spot on with the responses!

This number has called me several times over the last few days. Each time I’ve picked up, they seem to just hang up after a brief pause. When I attempt to return the call, it doesn't go through. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

I received a call from 01235 619307. The caller barely articulated their name, making it quite tricky to understand, and claimed to be with Virgin Media. However, just a few moments later, they abruptly ended the call. Quite peculiar, really!

I've been getting calls from some dodgy individuals pretending to represent Virgin Media. They want me to access my Event Viewer and then allow them to control my computer using TeamViewer. It's quite alarming, to say the least!

Received a call with no one at the other end. Quite baffling, really!

The individual on the other end asserted they were representing BT Open Reach. I informed him quite firmly that BT Open Reach had SHUT its doors! He sounded rather confused, so I decided to end the conversation right there.

Fraudulent claims regarding internet services.

A call with no one on the other end—certainly not ideal!

I received a call on my office line from this number. However, as soon as I picked up, they simply disconnected. Quite infuriating, I must say.

I keep receiving calls from someone claiming to be with Virgin Media, stating there's a technical issue. Each time I explained that I was occupied and asked for a number to return their call, they've simply hung up. This has now occurred thrice in just a day!

I've received no fewer than five calls from this number in a single morning! Thankfully, my phone has caller ID, so I won't be picking up. Such a hassle with these annoying calls!

I've been receiving numerous calls from this number, but there's never anyone on the other end. Quite peculiar, really!

Got a ring at precisely 9:41 this morning. A bloke on the other end simply said, "Hello," but I decided to hang up, as I had a hunch it was one of those dodgy scam calls.

I recently had a rather amusing encounter with some Indian scammers masquerading as representatives from Virgin Media. The usual con, really – they rang up claiming there was a fault with my internet connection and requested that I hop on my computer. They pushed me to access the event viewer to frighten me a tad, and then they insisted I download TeamViewer so they could hijack my machine. Instead of falling for it, I yanked out my Ethernet cable and strung them along for more than an hour. To my delight, they eventually figured out they were on the receiving end of the trickery! What a laugh that was!

I received two calls from this number within just an hour. Each time I picked up, they promptly disconnected the call. Seems like a bit of a scam to me!

I’d advise giving that number a wide berth; I've noticed they don't bother leaving a voicemail. It seems rather futile for them to ring, doesn’t it? I reckon it’s just a bit of a pointless exercise for them to reach out without any follow-up!

I've received three calls within just two days from my broadband provider regarding some issue with my service. I didn't even let them continue; I just cut the call short. I've been caught up in this scenario before, allowing them to prattle on until I pointed out the amusing fact that I actually don't have broadband at all!

My elderly mother has been persistently pestered by this number, with callers claiming to be inquiring about kitchen gadgets. They even request her banking information, which is a definite red flag. It's clearly a scam!

It appears they haven't taken a break! I received two calls last week followed by another pair just this morning, all within a mere ten minutes of each other. Most times, there's complete silence when I answer, but occasionally I do hear a bloke claiming to be calling from 'BT Open Space'. Once, I even had a chap insist that he was returning a missed call from us. Quite the sly tactic, but they're not quite clever enough! Keep your wits about you, everyone!

Received a dodgy call from someone purporting to be from Virgin Media, going on about issues with my router. Honestly, he must have thought I fell off a turnip truck!

Rang me earlier today, it must’ve been the first time I’ve had a call from this number. They terminated the call as soon as I picked up. Based in London.

It purports to be BT Openreach, but clearly that's not the case, seeing as they had no clue about the account details when I spoke with them.

I kept receiving calls from this number, but it rang incessantly without anyone on the other end. Totally unfamiliar, so I didn't pick up.

Received a call at 7:40 on a Saturday morning. Just as I picked up, the line went dead. Quite odd!

Received a call at 7:50 this morning, and they allowed it to ring for quite some time. I chose not to pick up since our landline hardly gets used, and hardly anyone has the number. Curious, I dialled 1471, only to discover it was indeed a dodgy call, just as I suspected.

Received a call from a gentleman with an Asian accent who claimed to be from Amazon's security team. I decided to cut the conversation short and ended the call.

I received a call from a woman who presented herself as a representative from Virgin Media, insisting there were issues with my broadband. She requested that I access my computer or device so she could “resolve” the problem. However, the moment I mentioned that I could verify the status via my account, she abruptly ended the call. Quite suspicious, to say the least!

I've had three calls in just two days—two of them before 8 in the morning! What an absolute pain! 😡😡😡 Does this person not realise that we all have caller ID these days? Honestly, what a numbskull! 🤣🤣🤣

I had a call at half eight this morning. When I picked up, there was complete silence on the other end. I decided to ring the number back, but it just kept telling me it couldn't connect. Quite strange!
