Some bloke claiming to be from "BT Openreach" in the Calcutta division rang me up, saying they'd disconnect my broadband for 28 days. I told him to go ahead since there's no internet tied to my landline anyway, and he just hung up on me.

Be careful, got a call from a guy claiming to be with BT Openreach but it was a total scam. I even rang BT Openreach myself to let them know about the dodgy call.

Got a call from a guy with an Indian accent saying he was from BT Openreach. He said there was some malware issue and they had to access my computer to sort it out, or else we’d be offline for almost a month. Yeah right, like BT would just cut me off like that! Total scam, watch out folks.

So apparently BT Openreach is like the business arm of BT, which means they deal with the service providers, not us as the end users. Because of that, they shouldn’t be ringing you up out of the blue. When they called me, I just told them to do one, or something along those lines, with a bit of a cheeky tone. :)

Got a call from 01562736831 today, sounded like an Indian bloke with a very thick accent. He said his name was Christopher John Wilson and claimed he was from BT’s Tech Department. Told me I had over 10,000 viruses and malware flooding all my gadgets through my router. He even gave me some ID number, a London head office address, and a phone number to ring him back. I just said I’d contact BT directly myself. Weird phonecall, felt a bit off.

Someone pretending to be from the internet called me and was really rude, even asking if I couldn't read properly. It was a total scam and they were very aggressive.

Got a call from someone claiming to be from BT Openreach, saying there was a problem with my router. I don't even have BT as my provider, so it was clear to me this was a con. They probably want you to let them into your PC to "sort it out" - no way you should let them do that. Be careful, it’s definitely dodgy.

I got a call from 01562767831, sounded like an Indian bloke claiming he was from BT Openreach. He told me there were some nasty emails being sent and received and wanted me to change some settings on our server. When I said I’d have to get our IT team to handle it, he got really pushy and quite shouty, saying only I could do it. Definitely seemed like some kind of scam to me.

Got a call from a woman with an Indian accent saying she was from BT internet. Seemed like a total scam to me. The moment I told her I’m with Trading Standards and this call was fishy, she just ended it right away. Don’t answer or share any details - better block the number straight away.

Got a call today from someone saying they were with BT, wanting to chat about my broadband speed. Couldn't really get what she was saying as she had an Indian accent, and something felt off, so I just ended the call. This is the second time she’s rung in the last couple of days.

Someone rang me saying they were from Openreach about my internet. Knowing how rubbish our connection is, and all the complaints they've had, I figured if it wasn’t about new fibre being installed, it was probably a scam. So, I just ended the call straight away.

Some woman said she was from BT, but when I asked her to say it again cause I didn’t catch what she was on about, she just dropped the call. Bit dodgy if you ask me.
