8 yearsI tried calling back since the caller never said a word, but when I rang the number again, it told me the number wasn’t recognised or something like that? Strange.8 yearsAs soon as my answerphone picked up, they just ended the call without leaving any message.8 yearsIve already had 6 calls just yesterday and another 2 today from this lot. Its about time the ICO stepped in and sorted out whoever is behind these scams. They’re not ringing from BT nor are they connected to TPS, they’re just crooks trying to rip people off. Honestly, they should be treated like any other criminal and face the consequences.ICOBTTPS8 yearsGot a call from a woman who said her name was Sandra, claiming she was with some sort of tech department. When I asked her exactly which department she meant, she just ended the call straight away.Sandra8 yearsGot a call on 01254396957 and my little girl, who’s only five, picked up. She said the person on the other end got quite rude and hung up after she turned the hoover on near the phone. I checked it out right away and reported it to my network. Just putting this out there so folks know these calls haven't stopped.8 yearsThis bloke said he was from BT, but I know for a fact I’ve got no deals or contracts with them. I told him straight up he wasn’t from BT and was probably trying to con me, maybe saying my broadband was infected with some virus or something dodgy. Once I called him out, he just ended the call. Pretty obvious it was a scam, especially since I work in IT security and recognise these dodgy tactics a mile off.BT8 yearsI got a call from a woman who said she was with BT Openreach. I asked her to prove she knew my name since she should have my account info. I could hear her chatting with someone in the background before she just ended the call. Quite dodgy if you ask me.BT Openreach8 yearsHe kept talking but I honestly couldn’t make out a word, so I just hung up.8 yearsGot a random call outta nowhere but they hung up just after two rings.8 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming to be from Openreach saying there was an issue with my phone line. I asked for a number I could ring back and he said he’d put me through to his manager. Instead, the so-called manager just started having a go at me and being rude. Strange experience!Openreach8 yearsGot a call from a man claiming he was with BT. Said my internet had issues and wanted me to go online so he could fix it. When I asked who he really worked for, he snapped back saying, “I work for my own company, you f#cking b#tch, I’m gonna scam you, you b#tch.” He then rambled about Queen Elizabeth taking money from India and threatened to steal my cash. Definitely not a nice fellow, just a rude scammer through and through.British TelecomQueen ElizabethIndia8 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be 'BT', but I don't even have their service. I told them to 'bugger off' and slammed the phone down straight away so they couldn’t get a word in!8 yearsGot a call showing up as 001441254396957 on my 1471 - breaking it down, it's a UK number, 44 country code, then 01254 396957. The caller said they were from BT Outreach and mentioned something about my internet. Seemed really polite at first, but then they asked for remote access to check my connection - felt like a sketchy move right there. Been getting loads of these kinds of calls lately, some from weird VOIP numbers too. Definitely sounds like a scam to me!UK8 yearsGot a call from a guy saying he was from BT openreach, sounded Indian. He kept insisting about my internet provider, tried to get me to say it, but I wouldn’t. Then he started acting all aggressive and threatening. Ended up just hanging up on him.

They wanted us to let them talk us through it on our laptop to prove it. But when I checked with Openreach, they said they'd never ring you up about stuff like that. They told us to only deal with our broadband provider if there are any issues, especially since we’re with someone else, not BT. Definitely felt like a scam to me.Openreach8 yearsReceived an automated message claiming my internet was going to be disconnected unless I took action. Got the same call a couple of times now - clearly a scam.
