8 yearsOh Shirley again, telling me some rubbish about a compromised IP or whatever. Loads of folks have already said their piece and like many I’ve just gone ahead and blocked the number. I’m sure “Shirley” will ring from some other number before long and yep, that’ll get blocked as well. I’m honestly so tired of these annoying calls. Isn’t there some way the tech people can just put an end to this for good?Shirley8 yearsThankful I didn’t pick up, they hung up just before I could. Glad I missed it.8 yearsJust like everyone else has said, I'm fed up with these so-called 'people' who drag me into their scams, full of lies and just wanting to make a quick buck. It's such a waste of time and effort.8 yearsReceived a voicemail from someone with a really fake American accent, claiming my IP was hacked all over the world and that they’d cut off my internet in a day. Honestly, yeah right, not buying it. I’ve had similar calls before and blocked them straight away. Total scammers, absolute muppets!Shirley8 yearsI keep getting calls saying my internet's about to be disconnected. Almost every single day there's at least one of these scam calls ringing me up. Seriously, the government really needs to step in and sort this out.8 yearsShirley calls us almost every single day and somehow, our internet is still working fine. This has been going on for months now, and honestly, someone really needs to put an end to this nuisance.Shirley8 yearsSome woman called with a strong American accent, said my IP had been hacked, then just dropped the call. I get these calls almost every week. They even tried to reach my mum the other day - she's 86 and doesn’t even use the internet!Shirley8 yearsOh yeah, Shirley was going on about changing the IP address. Classic! And then came the bit about pressing 1 - no thanks, I’m good, just gonna hang up instead!Shirley8 yearsGot a call from someone with an American accent telling me my internet’s IP was being hacked from a bunch of different countries. She said they'd shut off my internet in 24 hours. I didn’t even press any number they wanted, and then they just ended the call.8 yearsI got a call saying my IP had been hacked across loads of countries and gadgets, and if I didn’t get back to them in 24 hours, my internet would be disconnected. I rang my broadband company straight away and it’s a total scam. Calling that number would probably cost a bomb and just make the scammers richer, or worse, let them into your devices. Best thing is just to hang up and not engage.8 yearsI’m so over this!!!8 yearsThis number rings me almost every day, sometimes even more than once a day.
