For the past couple of days, I've had calls from someone saying they’re from BT Openreach.

A bloke with an Asian accent called me claiming he was from BT Openreach, saying he needed to fix issues with my router. As soon as I said “yeah, right, you’re not,” he just cut the call.

They rang me at 11:17 but then just dropped the call.

There was this bloke who didn’t speak much English, so I fibbed and said I didn’t have any internet. He just ended the call straight away, didn’t even say sorry for bothering me. What a muppet!

Got a call from some bloke at about 1 this afternoon. His voice sounded Asian. I told him he had the wrong number but he just cut off before I finished. Maybe I didn't sound silly enough for him, no disrespect to folks who fell for it.

Got a call from some Asian guy named Sam, said he was from BT Openreach. He said he'd take me to court just because I told him he was lying. I told him if the police ring, he should tell them himself 'cause I was handing over his number. Sounds like just another nasty scam, if you ask me.

Got a call from someone saying they were with BT, but it was just a scam trying to steal my internet login info. Definitely dodgy.

Got a call this morning around 11.45 from someone with an asian accent saying there’s an issue with my internet. This isn’t the first time i’ve got these calls either. I’ve blocked the number but i reckon they just switch to a different one straight away! It’s really frustrating. What worries me more though is that older people might fall for it and end up getting scammed.

Got a call from this number earlier today about 10.25, some bloke with an Asian accent saying his name was Robin Williams. Really pushy about my internet security being rubbish. He said he’d ring again tomorrow, but honestly, I’m just gonna block the number. Proper annoying!

Not sure who it was, but it was just one of those cold calls. I ended up missing an important work call on my phone because I picked this one up!
