Looks like 01247 isn’t linked to any particular place. Seems like scammers figured out a way to stop BT from tracking the number. Best to stay well clear of it.

Got a call from an automated voice saying my IP was hacked in loads of countries and that my internet would be disconnected in a day or two. They offered to fix my address for free if I pressed 1 to talk to someone. Total scam, without a doubt. I assumed the new data protection laws would have put an end to these annoying calls, but clearly not. Also, it seems to me that if you do press 1, you’re basically inviting the scam and might lose any chance of complaining since you initiated the interaction.

He rang me up asking about any spam calls and wanted to know if I'd gotten any after I started using his blocking service. I told him no, I hadn't. Then he said my full name and seemed like he was fishing for more details, but I just ended the call.

I got a call saying my computer’s IP was hacked and asking me to log in to fix it. Total scam! Just ignore and block the number straight away!

It started with some weird robot talking. Then there was silence for a bit and out of nowhere the person just said "goodbye." Total pain.

I wasn’t home when they rang, and they just left a silent voice message on my answerphone.

I don’t even pick up unless I’m waiting for a call from someone, already blocked about 19 numbers. For my mates and family, I just stick to messaging apps these days. There’s been far too many dodgy calls lately.

So I just got a call saying my internet’s been hacked in loads of countries and it’ll be cut off in a day if I don’t sort it. Then this girl Shirley tells me to press 1 to speak to an engineer. Like, does she really think I’m daft enough to do that? Definitely blocking this number!

Just like loads of others have said, it’s a total scam and proper annoying.

This has all the signs of a scam trying to freak you out into calling them. Legit internet companies usually send you an email or message if your IP gets hacked, not random calls. Just ignore it and block the number!

As soon as I tell them the company I work for, they just end the call straight away.

Pretty sure this was just a scam about some internet being cut off or something.

Got a call with some weird robotic voice trying to freak me out. Just hung up straight away. Honestly, these calls need to be banned for good.

I got a call with the same robotic tone. They said to hit 1 if you want to speak to a technician.
