4 yearsAnnoying, unidentified nuisances!4 yearsI received a rather dubious call from someone claiming to be from BT's technical support team, supposedly addressing some problems with my internet. I’ve got a strong inkling this chap was attempting to gain unauthorised access to my computer. Just a heads-up for everyone! Stay vigilant!BT6 yearsI ended up hanging up on them and blocked the number straight away.6 yearsGot a couple of calls from this number, a lady with a Filipino accent introduced herself as Christina. She claimed to be from BT and said there was an issue with my broadband. I told her I wasn’t free to talk then. A couple of days later, she rang again with the same story, asking me to get on my computer so she could help fix the supposed problem. I said it wasn’t a good time and she promised to ring back in two hours. Meanwhile, I contacted BT myself and was told they wouldn’t call customers like that - it was definitely a scam.ChristinaBT6 yearssome guy said his name was mark, but you could tell he had a really strong indian accent. he said he was with bt and asked if i knew about some malware problem. there was loads of noise in the background, sounded like kids messing about. when i asked him to prove who he was, he just ended the call straight away.MarkBT6 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Asian accent, claiming something about my BT line, which I don’t even have. When I asked if her mum was aware she earns cash by spinning fibs, she suddenly went silent. I ended up telling her off in her own language and slammed the phone down.6 yearsI usually don't pick up when my phone rings around this time since I get loads of irritating calls then (they were off during lockdown). So after it stops ringing, I look up the number just to see if it might be someone I know calling.6 yearsHad a call from someone saying she was ‘Elena’ representing BT, asking questions about my internet service. Told her I’m not with BT for internet. Then she started going on about blocking my access because apparently, others might be using my line without permission. When I asked for her number she just gave the general BT 0800 800154. Called her out on being dishonest and she just cut the call. Such dodgy behaviour!ElenaBT6 yearsGot a call from someone who didn’t say their name. They claimed BT was downloading stuff onto my computer to mess it up. Bit fishy if you ask me.6 yearsloads of quiet rings from this dodgy caller before he said he was with BT. i just told him to have a great day and hung up.BT6 yearsI have no clue why they just hang up right as soon as I answer the phone.6 yearsGot a call from BT saying something about illegal downloads and wanting me to do stuff on my computer. Felt dodgy straight away. When I told them I'm only 17, they said they needed to speak to my dad in the morning. I asked if they could call back after 1pm, but they just insisted it had to be in the morning. Definitely a scam.BT6 yearsGot a dodgy call from 'Sam' just now, pretty sure it was a scam.Sam6 yearsGot a quiet ring just gone 11.10, no one there.6 yearsI got a call from this number at around half past one in the morning. It was an automated call, but there was nobody speaking when I answered.6 yearsI got a call that showed up as from abroad, but when I checked the number, it was actually a UK one. Figured it might be dodgy, so I just let it ring out to voicemail. No message was left, which made me even more sure it was a scam.UK6 yearsThis bloke was a BT scammer, tried to get me to let him into my computer. He really made it sound convincing.BT6 yearsSomeone with an Asian accent called me saying they were from BT and that my downloads were illegal or something like that. Sounded a bit dodgy to me.BT6 yearsCalled the number but got nothing, just complete silence on the other end. Pretty strange to be honest.6 yearsI got a call from this number claiming to be from BT but it was clearly a scam.Submit Your Own Report (01492 576342)
