01246826910 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01246826910 👆 is reported as a persistent scam involving automated calls claiming internet or IP address compromise, urging recipients to press a number to speak to a technician. Callers often use disguised UK numbers, sometimes appearing to originate internationally, and employ a fake representative named "Shirley." The calls repeatedly threaten internet disconnection within 24 hours, aiming to deceive and potentially gain access to personal or financial information. Most users advise against engaging, recommending immediate hang-up and blocking the numbers. These calls show patterns of impersonation and manipulation, with no legitimate messages left. Awareness and use of call blockers or ignoring unidentified calls are strongly suggested to avoid falling victim to this widespread scam.

Got a call that seemed dodgy, so I just ended it and didn’t bother picking up again.

Here we go again with these so called callers pretending to be local by using some kind of uk mux trick to hide their real number, probably some scam claiming they’re from microsoft this time! Honestly, the government and the telecom watchdog should really make it illegal to do this number spoofing. Luckily, my call blocker picked this number up and blocked it straight away. Still, they’ll just move on to a different one, so the hassle never ends.

Got another automated call from someone named "Shirley" telling me my "rowter" (I thought she said router, but it sounded like something you'd carve wood with!) had been hacked across loads of countries. Apparently, my internet will be disconnected in 24 hours unless I press 1 to talk to a “technician.” Just hung up straight away. Honestly, losing my BT internet wouldn't bother me much right now since it’s been rubbish lately anyway. Definitely another dodgy scam to watch out for.

Just got a call saying it was about my internet and to press 1. I didn't press anything and just hung up. Heard if you do press it, it could cost you loads. Best to ignore calls like that!

Got a call from 01246826910, looked like some foreign number but had a Chesterfield area code. Didn’t answer, seemed a bit dodgy. They didn’t leave any voicemail either. Decided to just block the number.

Got a call around 8:42 on 11/06/18 from some automated voice warning my internet was compromised and I needed to change my IP address. I just ended the call straight away.

I usually let unknown numbers just ring away since I have caller ID and don’t pick up unless I know who it is. No voicemail or anything left either.

Got a robocall from someone saying they were "Shirley with the internet provider". The automated voice claimed my IP and modem were under threat and told me to hit 1 to fix it. I just hung up straight away.

Got a recorded call from someone named ‘Shirley’ claiming to be from my internet service. She warned that our connection would be cut off within a day because apparently our IP address was hacked by a bunch of foreign countries. I was told to press 1 to speak to a tech who could fix it. When I didn’t press anything, the call just dropped. Pretty worried about what they could do if they actually got into my system - could end up having my bank details nicked or my computer used to trick others.

Got a call about 4pm saying my IP was hacked and to press 1 to speak to an engineer. I just ended the call and blocked the number straight away.

My phone buzzed for a few seconds and then just cut off right before I could answer it.

Got a robocall warning me my internet was at risk and they’d shut it off unless I pressed a number to get through to some tech support. Pretty much the same scam as the one from 01278542348, just coming from a new number.
