01253357860 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01253357860 👆 is reported as a scam involving automated calls with a fake technical support message claiming your BT internet or phone line has been compromised by someone in California or abroad. Callers use electronic voices urging recipients to press numbers to supposedly fix issues, but doing so may lead to high charges or further scam attempts. These calls often come from numbers with a Blackpool or Lancashire area code and are widely recognised as fraudulent by BT and customers alike. Recipients are strongly advised not to engage or press any options, to block the number using call rejection services, and to verify with their legitimate provider if concerned. This scam targets less tech-savvy individuals and should be treated with caution.

I got a call from Elite Competitions earlier; apparently, they're ringing up folks who’ve previously bought tickets to pitch their gold subscription. Never gave them the go-ahead to call me out of the blue like that. Honestly, it’s a bit annoying.

Total robo call, probably a scam.

Got a call from a recorded message telling me my IP address was being accessed from abroad. They offered to fix my router at no cost if I just hit 1. I immediately ended the call and rang my internet provider. They said this scam’s been popping up loads lately and if I’d pressed 1, it would have ended up costing me a fortune. Watch out for the number 01253 895039.

Got a call from some automated voice telling me my line was about to be cut off due to some problem with California. Complete nonsense! Honestly, it’s a pretty daft scam from people who clearly aren’t too bright. Don’t be daft and fall for it. Just block the number and move on.

Got a weird automated call saying it was BT, warning my internet's been hacked in California. Totally a scam!

Got a message from what claimed to be BT, coming from a sketchy Blackpool-looking number. It warned me about some guy in California who supposedly messed with my router. There were several prompts to connect to “tech support,” which I just ignored. Pretty obvious scam if you’ve dealt with these before, but I guess some folks might get duped. BT actually does have a number for reporting this kind of thing, but with scammers able to spoof any caller ID these days, it doesn’t really do much good.

Got a robotic voice on the phone telling me my BT broadband was hacked by some Californian group and it would be switched off today. I don't even use BT, so I knew straight away it was dodgy. I just worry that some folks might fall for this trick and panic.

Got a voice message claiming it was BT tech support, saying someone in California had hacked into our internet. Asked me to press 1 for help. Tried calling back on 01253357860, which is actually from Blackpool and didn’t even exist. Looks like a proper scam to me.
