8 yearsJust like loads of others, I got a call from someone with a foreign accent saying there was an issue with my BT internet. I told them nothing and they hung up. I've seen this one before, so I've blocked the number now.8 yearsFirst, just look up "IP" on Google to find your public IP address. Then when they call, ask them to tell you what your public IP is. Watch how they struggle and can't give you an answer before you hang up. Total scam!Google8 yearsGot a call from some Indian scammers pretending they were with BT. Just last week they rang me up saying my PC was sending viruses out and they’d had complaints about my emails, needed to get into my computer to fix it. Total rubbish! How do these muppets come up with such nonsense? Absolute scammers, honestly GRRR!BT8 yearsSome bloke with an Indian accent said he was Alex from the BT tech team. Before he could say much more, I cut him off telling him I was Donald Trump calling straight from the White House and told him to get lost. I've blocked the number since then.AlexBTDonald TrumpWhite House8 yearsMy missus got a call and smartly refused to press any buttons before ending the call. Had a word with BT, and it seems this kind of thing has been pretty common lately.BT8 yearsI got a really odd call where they just said ‘hello’ and then went quiet after a bit before saying anything else. Strange.8 yearsSame here, got a call claiming it was BT.BT8 yearsGot a call from some guy with an Asian accent claiming he was from BT saying my internet service was going to be disconnected soon. I told him I’d end the call and get in touch with my actual provider instead, then he just dropped the call. Obviously a scam, so watch out for this number!BT8 yearsNo one spoke when I answered. Just a totally silent call.8 yearsGot a call from some robot voice saying my internet's been hacked and it'll get cut off unless I press 1 to talk to an engineer. Obviously, it’s a total scam. Don’t even think about hitting 1!8 yearssomebody called saying they were from bt, asked loads of questions about my internet, then just cut off the call out of nowhere - felt like a scam in the making but they backed out for some reason -BT8 yearsGot this dodgy automated voicemail on my landline, saying my IP’s been hacked in loads of countries and to press 1 for help. Total scam, don’t fall for it!8 yearsThey spoke in really poor English and told me my internet was hacked and would be disconnected the next day. I just kept chatting with them and they eventually gave in and stopped calling.8 yearsI got a call from a guy claiming to be with BT, talking about my internet and something to do with my router. I told him I wasn’t the account holder and he just ended the call straight away. Definitely a scam!8 yearsI mentioned that my internet wasn’t working and that I was going to call the cops, and he just told me to f- - k off!8 yearsGot a robo call about some problem with my router, said my connection would get cut off. Totally a scam.8 yearsThis was clearly a scam from the internet, so I went ahead and blocked the number immediately.8 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be with BT, asking about my internet service. I told her my connection was alright but mentioned I’m not actually a BT customer. Then, she just ended the call straight away.BT8 yearsGot a message saying my internet was at risk and they'd disconnect if I didn’t get in touch with my provider straight away. When I used my mobile to ring the line back, it actually was still active. On my caller ID, it just popped up as 'INTERNATIONAL', but digging into the number, it came from the 01247 area code, which I found out is listed as protected and not really in use! So yeah, totally a scam for sure!!8 yearsGot a call from some robotic voice claiming my internet IP got hacked in a bunch of countries, then tellin me to hit 1 to talk to an engineer. They never mentioned what company they were from. Definitely don’t press 1, total scam.8 yearsI've had a few calls from this number over the last week. They claim my router's got issues and it's been hacked by some overseas numbers. They keep telling me to press 1 to chat with a BT technician. Never had any of this before, only started after I was looking into switching my internet provider. I’m really wondering how they even got hold of my landline number - could there be someone inside BT or I-TALK giving out info? Feels a bit dodgy to me.BT8 yearsDefinitely a scam, got a message from some American lady warning me that my internet was about to be cut off in 24 hours because of some security issue. I just let it go to voicemail since it was obviously a recorded message.Submit Your Own Report (01247 495784)
