Blimey, I nearly fell for it! Some chap called me up, purporting to be a technician from BT. He was busy droning on about fixing my internet and installing a fancy new router that promised speeds like you wouldn't believe. It was clearly some dodgy scam, no doubt about it!

Some bloke rang me, saying he was from BT internet and that there was an issue with my connection. I said I don't even use BT internet, but he insisted that BT supply internet to every company out there. I wasn't having any of it and called him out as a scammer. Then he swore at me and just ended the call. Total nonsense.

I've had a call from a chap named John Williams using the 0151 number as well. He mentioned his ID was MT 00177 and claimed to be stationed in Reading. When I expressed my need to verify his credentials, he provided me with what he claimed to be the legitimate office contact for Reading. Despite that, I had my doubts and was convinced he was up to no good. Turns out, I was right!

Had this same guy from India ring me up about my home laptop, called yesterday and got really rude when I didn’t want to share my name, asking why we were even chatting. Then he called me again this morning, and I calmly told him to stop ringing since he already called yesterday. That’s when he started shouting awful things, calling me a f**king b***h and a cow and saying I should die. I quickly told him to f**k off, cut the call and blocked his number straight away.

I received a rather peculiar phone call from someone claiming to be from Windows, saying he could assist me with my computer troubles. He insisted I'd been using Windows 7 and that I needed to hop onto my machine for some urgent help since I had apparently fallen victim to hacking. I firmly told him that I was capable of sorting things out by myself and that I wasn’t about to turn on my computer for him. That seemed to set him off, as he began accusing me of lying and let loose with an impressive string of expletives. I reminded him that I hadn’t initiated the call; it was him who rang me! He then threatened to block me regardless. The chap even introduced himself as John. Goodness knows what he was on about!

Not completely sure if that's possible, but I’d rather be safe than sorry. Feels pretty risky to me!
