Got a call from 01517399742 saying they were Virgin Media, but I’m not convinced!

Got a call with no one speaking on the other end, really odd and a bit creepy.

Honestly, one of the funniest things that’s happened to me today! Some daft bloke pretending to be from BT called up, trying to convince me that my computer was gonna get hit by some "Trojan donkey" virus this December. Then he went on to say there’s also a Trojan Horse coming at my PC next May. Said I needed to sort it out now to be safe. I told him I work in cyber security and he seemed completely clueless. Then I mentioned I use Noah’s Ark PC protection, so no critters are gonna trouble me, and he just went "oh" and swiftly hung up. Made my day!

Received a call today, and the chap on the line said he was representing BT Openreach. When I requested some form of verification, he abruptly cut the call. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

I picked up the call from 01517399742, only to be met with utter silence for about ten seconds before the line went dead with a quick "goodbye." Quite bizarre!

Had a couple of calls from these numbers too: (01503) 810191 and (01287) 205682. Both claimed to be Virgin Media and said my internet was slow, offering to help fix it. They wanted to know how many devices were connected and the colour light on my router. When I asked if I'd get a discount because of poor service, the line went dead. The second caller got upset when I said they sounded like they were reading from a script and ended the call as well! Neither of them spoke clear English and there was weird background noise that kept repeating.

There’s often that awkward pause before they start talking, which usually means scam incoming. This bloke sounded Indian and said he was from BT - clearly not true. I told him exactly what I thought he was up to, he argued a bit, then went on to insult me. I wasn’t having any of it and fired back with some rude comments about his mum. He got quite irate and just ended the call.

I had someone claiming to be from Virgin Media ring me twice today, each time from a different number. Seemed dodgy so I just told them to buzz off! Definitely not trusting those calls.

Got a call from a man with an Asian accent, his English wasn't great. He claimed Openreach had detected a security breach in my internet. Definitely seemed like a scam.

I got calls a couple of times recently from someone claiming to be with BT, saying my internet was running slow. I told them I wasn’t with BT and that my internet was fine, but they kept pushing. When I asked for their phone number, they refused to share it. After I hung up, I used 1471 and managed to get the number they called from.

Received a call today (5th October) around half past eleven... there was no message left and it was completely quiet on the line when I picked up. Feeling rather suspicious about it, as I wasn't anticipating a call from an 0151 number, it gives off a bit of a dodgy vibe.
