Received a call purporting to be from BT, stating that there was suspicious activity on my internet connection, and they would be suspending it for a couple of hours.

I got a call earlier today from a chap named "Peter" with a thick Indian accent, who knew my name. When I inquired about where he was calling from, he got a bit flustered and abruptly ended the conversation. It seemed like he was thrown off balance by my question, as if he wasn't following his usual script. Definitely smells like a scam to me!

I received a call from a chap with a pronounced Indian accent, insisting he was from BT. He went on about how our internet was at risk of being cut off because of a supposed virus-laden download on our computer. He claimed he could sort it out for us. After I ended the call, he kept ringing back, yet there was no voicemail left behind. Quite suspicious, if you ask me.

I received a call earlier today from a woman, who introduced herself as Nancy and had a noticeable Asian accent. She claimed there were issues with our internet connection, insisting that we were offline. Strangely, she mentioned having our information stored in some kind of database. When I pressed her for the name of our internet provider, she abruptly ended the call. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

I received a call from this number earlier today. An Asian lady named Anna claimed to represent BT and insisted that my internet connection was compromised due to a scam. I mentioned that I would prefer to contact BT directly, but she was quite pushy and urged me to resolve the issue with her instead. Things became a bit heated, and before I knew it, she hung up on me. I tried to return the call, but it went unanswered. This is just part of a stream of calls I've been getting from various BT numbers over the past few days!
