I've had my fair share of calls from so-called TalkTalk engineers, and let me tell you, this number is yet another in a long line of pranks. They can be quite rude and aggressive when they don't manage to extract the details they’re after. Strangely enough, this time around, there was no response from the caller at all.

I had a chat with TalkTalk, and they were extremely accommodating. They guided me through the process of blocking this pesky scammer from bothering me again on my phone.

I recently received a rather dodgy call from a chap claiming to be Sean Williams, who supposedly works for TalkTalk. He was an Asian fella, and he insisted that my computer had been compromised. Then, he began asking for my TalkTalk account number. I told him I wasn’t sure of it, and to my surprise, he had the gall to call me a blithering idiot before abruptly ending the call. Unbelievable!

Just said, “Calcutta fraud investigation unit” and they hung up quick, no chance to speak more!

so this guy rang me up, sounded like he was from talk talk or something, claiming he needed to get remote access to my PC. he was pretty good at sounding legit, honestly i reckon some folks might fall for this if they’re not careful. these scammers really are terrible, sneaky and completely untrustworthy.

On Tuesday I got a call from 01706583786 and then again on Friday from 01475639460. In just one week, I’ve had about 15 spam calls. The last couple of times they just cut the call off before speaking. This has got to be illegal, the police really need to step in. They have these numbers so it shouldn’t be hard to trace where they’re coming from.

Received a call from a gentleman with an Asian accent claiming to be David Wilson from the TalkTalk tech support team. When I requested his phone number for verification, he abruptly disconnected the call. Quite suspicious, I must say!

Got a call earlier, all I heard was silence then a woman said “thanks”. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number using BT Protect now.

I keep getting loads of calls claiming they’re from TalkTalk, saying my router is broken! I’ve told them plenty of times I’m with BT now, yet the calls switch to saying my BT router’s at fault. It’s so frustrating. These scammers - many seem to be from Asia - just won’t stop. The only place they could’ve got my landline is from my TalkTalk account since I never share my number anywhere else. Tried reporting it to TalkTalk but it’s like shouting into the void, no one listens!

I received a call from someone with a strong Indian accent, claiming they were a TalkTalk broadband technician. They informed me that my computer was supposedly transmitting corrupt characters. They then requested that I enter a particular code into my computer's command prompt. It felt suspicious, so I decided to hang up on them.

Got a call from someone claiming to be from TalkTalk, sounded Indian but used a typical English name. Went through their usual nonsense. When I said I had to check a security question, they just ended the call.

This guy's been ringing me up three times already, each time from a different number. It's getting really annoying now, proper joke at this point.

Just like always, I looked it up here before answering and have since blocked that number.

I received a call from someone with a thick Indian accent who claimed to be a TalkTalk broadband technician. He mentioned that my computer was allegedly sending corrupted data. He then insisted that I enter a code into the command prompt on my machine. I decided to hang up on him.

Got one of those typical "talk talk" scam calls today. You can spot them easily by that tiny lag just before some tosser picks up, probably the computer ‘letting them know’. I told the bloke to shove off. Normally, I wouldn’t be so blunt but these muppets are just trying to nick your cash, so no reason to be courteous. My uncle’s pension got swiped by these lowlifes after he fell for it - don’t be stupid like him!

somebody claiming to be an engineer from talk-talk phoned me saying there was an issue with my router. after getting tricked by similar calls before and losing loads of cash, i was suspicious straight away. i told the bloke i'd ring talk-talk myself to check if he was legit and asked for his name, which he said was john. the asian guy just went quiet then, so i ended the call. i dialled 1471 afterwards and yep, just another blasted scammer!

Had these scammers call me a couple times today. After making some really horrible threats towards my partner, the bloke said he’d phone back - and sure enough, he did. The authorities seriously need to step in and shut these lot down. Also, TalkTalk really ought to find a proper way to block these nuisance calls.

If you check out the Guardian online, there's an article about scammers from Indian call centres pretending to work for TalkTalk. I tried to paste the full link here but the site won't let me. TalkTalk really needs BBC Panorama or Channel 4 to do an undercover investigation, these criminals call pretending to be from TalkTalk to trick you into giving away your personal info and then drain your bank accounts. Even the real TalkTalk number seems to be getting hijacked by these fraudsters. Definitely make sure to report any suspicious calls or phishing emails to the police.

Got two calls from this number but when I picked up, silence. Saw others mention it too - sounds like another scam going around!

So this person rang me claiming to be from talk talk, said there was some issue with my router and even gave me what they said was my account number. Thing is, the bloke’s English was all over the place. Once I told him I hadn’t been a talk talk customer for over 2 years, he got all defensive and accused me of lying. I just asked him, “are you calling me a liar?” and then he hung up on me. Total scam attempt.
