7 yearsdefinitely a rip off, dont follow any of their instructions at all7 yearsGot a call on my home phone at 7.55 am today! This kind of thing happens pretty much every day now, starting so early and then continuing with calls from various numbers all day long. If someone didn’t realise it was a scam, the results could be awful. I also agree with what someone else said about BT not really caring.BT7 yearsOur landline is constantly bombarded with scam calls, a good chunk of which pretend to be from BT. Out of curiosity, I rang up BT to see what action, if any, they're taking to stop fraudsters using their name to deceive people. I mentioned that if it were my company being exploited like that, I'd be all over it trying to sort it out. But BT seemed totally uninterested and pretty much said it’s up to the customer to be careful. It’s like they don’t mind if scammers run around abusing their name - quite shocking really.BT7 yearsGot another call today claiming to be from BT - definitely a scam.BT7 yearsGot a call on my landline just after 9 in the morning. Let it go to voicemail and heard some weird message about “other person has cleared” or something like that. Pretty sure it was a scam. Nowadays I only answer if I recognise the number showing up, and honestly, an answerphone is a must-have. Easy peasy!7 yearsHad another one saying they were from BT. I block their number, but they just ring me again from another one. It’s so annoying!BT7 yearsReceived a rather alarming call from BT, claiming my broadband was on the verge of being cut off due to excessive spyware allegedly emanating from my machine. They connected me to an engineer who proceeded to demonstrate various errors and warnings via the event viewer. He promised to remedy the situation and directed me to a website - Teamviewer - instructing me to download a certain file. I flatly refused to install an executable file on my system. When he queried my hesitance, I explained that the ‘exec’ part in the file name raised red flags for me. He insisted it wasn’t a program, but I decided to end the call. Now I can't help but ponder where these questionable programs actually end up.BTTeamviewer7 yearsThat number 01256 368595 is suspicious! They want you to install some software that gives them full remote control over your computer, access to your bank info, photos, emails, and passwords! It might look like some genuine tool used by IT techs to fix PCs from afar, but don’t be fooled, it can totally compromise your privacy!7 yearsI received a rather alarming call from BT, informing me that my broadband would soon be disconnected due to a plethora of spyware supposedly emanating from my device. They transferred me to a technician who showed me all the errors and warnings in the event viewer. He claimed he could rectify the problem and directed me to a site called Teamviewer, where he insisted I download a certain file. I firmly told him I had no intention of downloading any executable file onto my machine. He questioned why I'd think that, and I clarified it was because the name included 'exec'. He persisted that it wasn’t an actual program. I decided it was best to terminate the call. Now I'm left pondering where all these dubious programmes might end up.BTTeamviewer7 yearsGot a call from a guy called Walter, said he was from BT internet and accused me of using my IP for some dodgy online scam. When I asked him to tell me the IP he was talking about, he suddenly turned all sarcastic and started threatening to report me to the cops for scamming. He just hung up without even a proper goodbye - such bad manners! lolWalterBTSubmit Your Own Report (01256 368595)
