This number keeps ringing me up at all sorts of hours. They always claim to be from my internet provider, saying it’s BT, and that there’s some sort of security alert coming from my router. I've told them quite clearly more than once to quit calling me. On the most recent call, I pretended to follow their spiel, which seemed to throw them off a bit!

I got a call from someone saying they were from BT about an issue with my router. When I asked for a callback number, they gave me 9830488563. I didn’t ring it as it didn’t sound like a BT number at all. Then I got another call from that same number later today.

Like many others have said here, the caller claimed to be from BT but couldn’t give me any details that BT would actually have. I told her I was tied up and asked how long the call would last, she said 30-40 minutes. I told her to ring back later. Now I’m pretty sure it was a scam, so I’ll be ready with what to say if they try again.

I often get calls from supposed Windows tech support scammers, but this is the first one where they actually showed their number instead of hiding it.

Don’t pick up, its just a trick so they can get into your computer. If you do answer, just tell them to bugger off and end the call immediately.

Had a call like this a while back - crackly line with loads of noise in the background, like a busy call centre. The person claimed to be from BT, saying there was a security issue with my router. When I didn’t bite, he just hung up on me. Pretty obvious it was a scam.

Got a call at 8:06 and another one earlier at 7:40. Seriously, who calls that early and it ain't family or really important? Just gone straight to blocked from me.

I just got a call like the one mentioned before and told them I’d ring back on my own to check if it was legit. They didn’t sound too pleased about that!

Awful service from the so-called tech team at my provider. I got calls twice this morning, once at 7:30 and again at 7:55. Proper frustrating.

Got a ring from this number at about half past seven this morning askin if my internet was alright. I wasn’t havin any of it and told them not to bother calling here again, said I'd report them too. Landline’s blocked now, couldn’t be bothered with it.

Got a call super early, like 6:30 in the morning, from a woman with an Indian accent claiming she was from my internet company. Didn’t get her very far though, I just told her to get lost and hit the button on my call blocking gadget. That thing really does the job!

Got a call from someone claiming to be with BT, said there was an issue with my router's security. I told him to shove off, and he got mad and hung up on me. Definitely a scam.

I got a call like that too, some woman claiming my router was compromised. When I told her I wasn't switching on my laptop since I wasn't convinced she was actually from BT, she insisted it was urgent and said it was for my own safety. She sounded proper annoyed when I still refused!

Got a call from someone claiming to be my internet company, asking about my router. I told them straight up it was a scam and ended the call. Then she rang back, sounding really annoyed. Clearly trying to catch people out, so just don’t answer these.

Got a call from some bloke claiming to be from BT, telling me there was an issue with my router and I needed to switch on my laptop or whatever so he could "fix it". I asked his name and he said it was Pack. I played along for a bit but then just hung up. He phoned back a couple more times asking me to turn on my computer, but I just ignored it every time.

Just got a call a minute ago from someone claiming to be with BT, asking about our internet setup. When I asked who he was, he said he worked for BT. Then, he kept pestering me to give him remote control of my laptop to "check the connection." Told him to buzz off, and he hung up straight away.

Someone called me, a woman speaking with an Indian accent, said she was from my internet company. When I asked for proof, she said she was from BT, but I know BT doesn’t supply my internet. Feels like a scam to me, pretty sure it was dodgy.

They told me it was something to do with my internet router, but then they just went quiet outta nowhere.
