I got a call from 01279 849848, some bloke claiming to be from BT. He said I needed to do something to keep my connection going or else it might get cut off or something. Sounded a bit dodgy to me.

Got a call from 01279843848 around 10:34 this morning. It was a recorded message with an American accent saying my IP was hacked or something. Didn’t press any buttons, felt like a scam for sure.

Got a call saying they were my internet company and if I didn’t press 1, my service would get cut off in a day. Knew it was dodgy straight away so just ignored it. Total scam.

Got a call from someone who wouldn’t give their name, saying my internet provider warned me about some international crime group messing with my connection. They said my service would be cut off within 24 hours. I ringed back the number they left. I hadn’t tried calling before, the call came through at 10:44 this morning.

Got a call from 01279843848 warning my internet would be cut off soon, total scam! This is the sixth time this week I've had these kinds of calls, and they always switch the number they say they're ringing from. So dodgy.

My phone just buzzed but there was only some weird noise, could this be that BT broadband cancellation thing people have been talking about? I’ve gotten calls like this before and honestly, I find it pretty annoying and feels like harassment.
