9 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be with BT, telling me I needed to replace my router.BT9 yearsThis number has been calling me non-stop recently. From what I can tell, it’s a dodgy scheme aimed at getting into your computer to steal personal info, probably to nick money from your bank. For a laugh, I played along with them for a bit, pretending to follow their instructions on my laptop before I got fed up. Their process drags on forever, maybe they think that’ll make it seem legit - it doesn’t. When I called them out, saying I knew it was a con and don’t even have BT Openreach, the guy argued back that I did! Strange behaviour. My tip: hang up straight away if you hear “BT Openreach” and make sure to block this number.BT9 yearsi got a call from a woman with an indian accent saying she was with bt openreach. she told me their engineer was at the exchange. i asked her which exchange it was, but she dodged the question and asked why i needed to know. i asked again, but her reply was the same vague nonsense. i told her she called to inform me about something so i expected some proper details, but she didn't seem willing to give any. then she just ended the call. it felt like a scam right from the start, especially since bt isn’t even who provides our internet!BT OpenreachBT9 yearsThis bloke said he was from BT and started asking about my router, but when I asked him some basic security stuff, he just dropped the call. How come BT don’t do anything to stop these scammers? It’s proper annoying.BT9 yearsSome dodgy character called trying to get into my computer, like I’m daft enough to fall for that!9 yearsHad a dodgy call from someone trying to get into my computer. Honestly, the best thing is to just chat with them and try to burn as much time as possible.9 yearsGot a call this morning from an Asian bloke just after 9 am. He started with “good afternoon, how are you today?” which was odd, because it was definitely morning, so I guessed he wasn’t based in the UK. Then he launched into some nonsense about my broadband being in trouble, but honestly, his accent was so thick I struggled to catch most of it. Told him I couldn’t understand and that it was pointless carrying on, then I just hung up. What a waste of time!UK9 yearsSo, this number called me yesterday claiming to be Nancy Williams from BT Openreach, saying my broadband was slow. They went through all these supposed tests and then put me through to someone from my internet company. This guy, Sam, told me I was owed £255 compensation for the bad service. He wanted to send it via Paypal first, but since I don’t have an account, he said he’d transfer it straight to my bank. Then he insisted I log into my online banking so I could see the payment go through, which immediately felt dodgy. When I said no, he got a bit rude, and I hung up right away. I’ve told my provider and bank about it and changed all my security info just to be safe. Seriously, don’t pick up if this number rings you!Nancy WilliamsBT OpenreachSamPaypal9 yearsMy mum's phone won’t stop ringing, and they kept asking if she could switch the computer on. She told them we don’t even have one here. Been two calls like this just this morning. I’m worried because I’m at work and my elderly mum’s left dealing with these annoying calls by herself.9 yearsJust got a call from some tosser wanting to hack into my PC using Team Viewer - told him to jog on straight away.9 yearsWe get a call every single day at work from a bloke with an Asian accent claiming he’s from BT. He keeps going on about an Openreach engineer being at the exchange and that there’s some issue with our internet. Then he wants me to answer some questions. I told him, “Your engineer seems to hang around the exchange all day, every day - has he set up camp or something?” Plus, we don’t even get our internet from BT. I said if there’s a problem with the lines, he should be talking to whoever actually provides our service. What a load of muppets!AsiaBT9 yearsHe started with "how are you to-day" and I just snapped back, told him to fe## off and die. I honestly said he should do everyone a favour and disappear.9 yearsHonestly, these lot are proper scammers. If you've got a bit of time, try to keep them chatting as long as you can, pretending to go along with everything they say. It might help waste their time and maybe stop some poor folks from getting conned. They claim to be from BT and then try to get you to install TeamViewer so they can mess about with your computer. Utter scum, honestly.9 yearsWhen I picked up, a robotic voice just blurted out "Goodbye" and hung up. Bit strange if you ask me.9 yearsGot a call from someone named 'Sam' who sounded Asian, said he was with BT Openreach about my router. I told him I wasn’t buying it and to buzz off, then I just ended the call.SamBT Openreach9 yearsSome bloke with an Indian accent was saying he was calling from Openreach. I just ended the call straight away. Tried to ring the number back after but it didn’t even show up as a valid one.Submit Your Own Report (01479 522592)
