Reports on phone number 01314710981
9 yearsGot a call earlier from someone who said they were from BT tech support, telling me there was illegal access to my internet. While chatting, I quickly looked up the number and caught that it was a scam. As soon as I called them out, they just ended the call.BT9 yearsI rang up BT to check and it turns out this was definitely a SCAM. Someone called me, claiming to be from BT and said my computer was sending hacking signals out to other servers. They wanted me to install TEAMVIEWER so they could take control of my laptop. When I asked for a number to call them back on, they gave me 01314710981. The people on the line were quite rude and had Indian accents, so I reckon the scammers are probably operating from somewhere in the Indian subcontinent.BT9 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be Mike Williams, saying there was an issue with my router. He actually used my real name which threw me off a bit. When I told him I’d ring him back later, he said he was based in London. Strangely though, the number he gave me started with an Edinburgh area code. Bit odd if you ask me.Mike WilliamsLondonEdinburgh9 yearsSo someone called me claiming to be Mike Jones and threw a random number at me, plus an account number which didn’t seem right. He was pretty keen for me to ring back that number to check it was really BT. I didn’t bother though. It was a bit unsettling, especially after all the usual “I'm calling about your windows computer” type calls we keep getting.Mike Jones9 yearsI got a call from a woman saying she was Susan Smith from BT, saying my internet was hacked and she'd guide me on what to do next, which sounds just like what others have described. The number that called me was 01860769499, but she asked me to ring her back on 01314710981. Feels a bit fishy to me.Susan Smith9 yearsI just got a ring from someone called "David Cain" on 01852618527 claiming he’s from BT. He told me to ring this 01314710981 number to check if he really works for BT. Apparently, there’s been some dodgy stuff going on with the internet line I use and he said he could sort it out once that was confirmed!David CainBT9 yearsI got a call from 01314710981 and the bloke said he was David Jones from BT. He told me that hackers from China and Nigeria had messed with my internet and that I needed to unplug it right away and wait for further orders. I wasn’t sure so I rang BT straight away and they told me it was a con. They then set up some kinda “Spam Protection” on my account. Big thanks to BT for sorting it out!David JonesBTChinaNigeriaSubmit Your Own Report (0131 471 0981)
