I got a call claiming to be from BT, saying my internet service was gonna be disconnected today!

I get calls from them almost every 20 minutes but they just hang up straight away. It’s really annoying because I’m expecting some important calls from others and this messes it all up.

i picked up and this automated woman claimed to be “shirley from internet services” and warned me that my internet would be shut off within the next day or two since my ip was apparently hacked all over the place. then it said “press 1 to speak with a tech guy.” this kind of thing is a classic scam move, nothing new really.

I got a call from some automated American guy saying that my IP had been hacked and was accessed from lots of different countries. Feels like a scam to me!

On 24/10/2018, this number rang twice and missed them both. Then around 3 in the afternoon, they called again. I answered and got someone who sounded indian with a really bad English accent talking about issues with my internet router or something similar. I didn’t bother and just ended the call. Not long after, a different person from the same number called back, spoke clearer English but said the same thing. I told him I knew it was a scam since I had just been contacted, and he hung up before I could.

Today, I got a call from this number saying there was an issue with my BT router, but I’m not even a BT customer. Definitely sounded like a scam to me.

Got a dodgy call from some “BT” number, came up as Great Yarmouth. They claimed strangers were mooching on my internet without asking. Keepin’ it suspicious, they asked me to tap in all these weird keys like “ctrl” and “alt”, then wanted to know if I was using a Windows or Mac. Don’t take the bait, people!

I got two calls from this number just under an hour and a half. Lucky for me, I wasn’t home at the time!

I got calls three times today in just one hour from 01493296656. Every time I picked up, there was complete silence for a few seconds before they hung up. After checking this site, I found out who was calling. Later, a man with an accent called from a withheld number, claiming to be from BT. I quickly cut him off saying I’m not associated with BT and he just ended the call. Quite suspicious if you ask me!

Got loads of annoying calls asking about my internet provider, feels like total spam and a bit like harassment at this point.

This number kept ringing me nonstop, saying they were calling on behalf of BT. Felt a bit dodgy to me.

They keep ringing me daily, always from a new number. I try blocking but it doesn’t stop, and the voicemail is really hard to understand. So annoying!
