8 yearsI kept getting calls from 01256 766274, 01256 738060, and 01256728739, all saying they were from bt openreach and that there was something wrong with my router messing up my internet. Did a quick check with bt directly and they told me it was totally a scam, didn’t fall for it at all.BT8 yearsMy dad got a call, but I picked up first which was lucky. When I said hello, there was just silence, then after about half a minute a beep went off and a recorded message started playing.8 yearsGot a call from this number on 10th Feb 2018 that somehow slipped past my Plusnet call blocker even though the number doesn’t even exist. Tried calling back but all I got was a dead tone, so it’s obvious it was spoofed. You’d think BT and Plusnet would have systems to block calls from fake or impossible numbers automatically. I wasn’t in at the time and they didn’t leave any voicemail, so I couldn’t tell them what a low life they are for preying on vulnerable elderly folks who don’t know much about tech just to steal their savings!PlusnetBT8 yearsHad a call from someone claiming to be with BT Openreach, but as soon as I said no to giving them access to my computer, they quickly changed their story. Same kind of scam really.BT Openreach8 yearsSomebody called me pretending to be from BT, said they needed to get into my computer. Total scam, definitely a con artist.BT8 yearsSome bloke called Harry Dix rang me, said he was from BT Openreach and had problems with the internet line. Insisted I needed a PC or something to fix it. Gave me a odd number, 20203697 10 or something like that. When I told him I wasn't interested, he just hung up. Bit fishy if you ask me.BT OpenreachHarry DixSubmit Your Own Report (01256 889453)
