Got a couple of calls today from 01287 634336. It was this American sounding automated lady saying she was with TalkTalk and that my internet was gonna be cut off today. Just hung up straight away.

Its baffling how these dodgy calls manage to slip past even when there’s a UK number staring at you. How do they pull it off with the proper UK dialling code? Seriously, it makes you wonder what kinda gaps there are in the system!

Got two calls today from a number with a recorded female American voice saying my IP server was "compromised" and threatening to cut it off. They wanted me to press 1, but I hung up immediately after that. Such a scam!

Spoke with an engineer who said my internet IP would switch over, but it never did within a day. Then they asked me to press 1 if I wanted to talk. Bit annoying honestly.

Oh, same here. Got two calls yesterday from a robotic woman’s voice saying my internet was hacked from California and then another one about my IP being compromised. I tried calling the number back that showed on my phone but it’s not a real one. I don’t get how these scammers keep pretending to be BT and nothing happens to them. Funny thing is, these calls only began right after I switched my broadband provider from my previous utility. Seems like too much of a coincidence to me!

Got a ring from this number claiming something about my BT line. I hung up straight away - was obvious it was a total scam.

Like the other people here, I just got a call from an American lady saying the internet service was shut down because it’s been hacked by foreign countries. My elderly husband nearly picked up again, as he had answered the same call earlier today. I grabbed the phone off him straight away, didn’t want him sharing any personal info. Aren’t these calls meant to be against the law? They aren’t ringing from the same number either, they keep using different ones but the story never changes.

This is really worrying, they’ve gone as far as warning me they’ll disconnect my service.

Totally a scam, watch out!

Total rip off, these scumbags. They’re just after cash and don’t care who they hurt. It’s always the older folks and those who can’t really defend themselves who end up losing out. Such a nasty racket.

I just got a call from someone pretending to be my internet company and they sounded really threatening. I didn’t get involved and just ended the call straight away.

Today I got a call just like the one described here. The number's area code seemed kinda familiar, so I almost hit 1 out of curiosity. Honestly, I’m not sure what would’ve happened if I did press it.

Got a call saying my internet was supposedly being shut off because it got hacked by loads of countries. Didn’t really trust it so I just ended the call straight away.

I got a call from a lady with an American voice on a recording saying my BT internet was about to be cut off unless I hit 1 or 2. I ignored it and the call just stopped.

Got a call warning me that my internet would be cut off in less than a day. I’ve also received emails saying exactly the same thing. Quite unsettling to say the least. The person on the phone was an American lady with an accent. I just hung up straight away. But who could be behind this? Maybe one of the marketing companies listed here? Or maybe I’m just being a bit suspicious?

Somebody called, said they were from my internet company and warned my service would be cut off in a day because of a security breach. They insisted I needed to talk to their engineers to fix it. I just ended the call right away.
