Phone number ☎️ 01526988541 👆 is reported as a prolific scam involving automated calls from a female voice claiming to be "Veronica" from BT, warning about criminal activity linked to the recipient's internet. Many users note repeated calls from multiple numbers, with no genuine BT contact details and immediate hang-ups when challenged. The callers aim to keep people on the line, likely seeking personal information or payment. Despite reporting to BT and the Telephone Preference Service, the calls persist, causing frustration and concern, particularly among vulnerable users.

I would have thought BT would have cracked down on this by now. You can block numbers on your mobile easily, but it’s impossible on a landline. Honestly, BT should really get their act together and fix this.BT7 yearsThey rang yesterday as well but didn’t leave any message, and again today, no voicemail was left.7 yearsI reckon we should start calling it the "Veronica BT trick" since I got the same call like others mentioned. When the 'advisor' finally answered and I said I don’t have internet, she just hung up on me straight away.Veronica7 yearsThis number rang me at 1:54pm but I missed it. I get loads of calls like this every day, sometimes even 8 times! I've got call guard and BT's monitoring system set up too. After seeing what others have said, it’s clear this is a scam.
