7 yearsGot this robotic caller on my home phone non stop, it's driving me mad. Seriously, I wish I could just smash the whole landline.7 yearsGot two calls within a couple of hours. No one spoke, just quiet, then they ended the call. I've blocked the number now.7 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Asian accent, she claimed to be calling from some company.

I've now blocked the number - it was 01254 898492.BT7 yearsI received a call from someone identifying himself as Dan Smith from BT, who was rather keen on persuading me to grant access to my computer by visiting Join.Zoho.com. I had a bit of fun with him, deliberately misspelling words and throwing him off track. After a good 19 minutes of back-and-forth, he finally threw in the towel. If only these sorts of people chose to operate above board, we’d all be in a much more secure position. Without a doubt, it's a scam.Dan SmithBTJoin.

Not convinced these calls are actually from BT - feels like a scam to me.British TelecomBT7 yearsGot calls from this number two times today and a few other times before.
