7 yearsMy missus got a call from someone speaking with an Indian accent. They said there was a problem with her computer and offered £200 compensation but wanted to get into her PC. They made her visit some website hubs10[###] and asked to check the Event Viewer. When they started asking for bank info, she just ended the call straight away.7 yearsGot a call from a man, sounded Asian, who said he was with BT. He told me to enter hubs10 into my browser but the site seemed really sketchy, so I just ended the call.BT7 yearsOn the morning of Saturday 30th March, I got a call from a man with an Asian accent claiming to be from BT's tech support. I told him BT didn't have a technical team like that and just hung up.BT Technical7 yearsWhile I was out, some scam callers kept ringing and really upset my kids. They were attempting to get into our computers online. Such a nightmare!7 yearsGot a dodgy phone call from someone who wanted to get remote access to our computer. They said there was an issue with our internet and told my other half to press the Windows key and R together. He decided to have a bit of fun and pretended the R key was stuck by banging the desk a few times and then said it had popped off. He joked "Cheers mate, now no internet and my keyboard's knackered!" Unsurprisingly, the bloke with an Asian accent got pretty annoyed and hung up, even calling my husband stupid before doing so!7 yearsGot two calls from this number in less than an hour. Didn’t pick up and they left no voicemail. Reading these reviews, I’m glad I didn’t bother answering.7 yearsI just swapped out my BT router because something seemed off. When I mentioned "I'm not with BT" the call suddenly dropped. Same old scam nonsense, really.BT7 yearsGot a call this morning from someone claiming to be BT about my internet. They buzzed me up like five times, and I finally told them to knock it off. Don’t reckon it’ll actually stop though.BT7 yearsGot a couple of calls today and it was obvious English wasn’t their strong point. First one, I picked up and there was nobody on the line. Then, not long after, a man rang again but never said who he was or which company he was from. He just launched straight into saying my internet was having issues. I’m not a tech whiz but fair guess this is a scam trying to trick older or vulnerable folks into giving bank info. Seriously, be careful, just hang up or make a loud noise down the phone to scare them off.7 yearsJust like everyone else said, it’s a scam. They try get into your computer remotely. Watch out for it!7 yearsThese annoying jerks just won’t stop calling. 01609777763, who knew there were that many BT folks hanging around Northallerton? Feels like everyone in the UK is struggling with their internet lately, I’m amazed the entire network hasn’t just crashed by now.BlimeyBTNorthallertonUK7 yearsGot a call from "Adam" claiming to be from "BT OpenReach" - yeah right. I played along for a bit just to waste his time and hopefully stop him bugging someone else. At one point he actually asked if I was having internet issues, and I told him the only problems I have are with scammers like him ringing up. Then he just cut off. Job done!AdamBT OpenReach7 years01609 777763 Total con! Took ages before anyone spoke, probably cause they were calling all the way from Pakistan. Some guy who sounded like an Asian version of Robin Williams was trying to make me open my web browser. I just kept pretending I couldn’t hear him right, asking him to say it again. Eventually got tired and he just ended the call. Pure scam, avoid for sure.PakistanRobin Williams7 yearsGot a missed call from this number on my home phone earlier today. It weirds me out that these annoying lot seem to know my first name when they ring. I can block the last call I picked up (1572), but does anyone know how to block numbers I haven’t even answered yet?7 yearsSomeone rang saying they were from Openreach about my internet. It’s really getting out of hand, as my work phone gets calls like this every single day. Wish something would actually be done to stop this rubbish.Openreach7 yearsTried calling but no one picked up, so I just blocked the number.7 yearsSomeone rang me pretending to be from BT Openreach.BT7 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were from BT, and when I asked to talk to his manager, he ended up insulting me with some pretty rude words.BT7 yearsGot a call from someone with an asian accent saying she was Jane from BT Openreach. I told her she’d got the wrong number and then just hung up.JaneBT Openreach7 yearshe claimed that for sure! honestly, i’m not convinced! we keep getting loads of calls like this, it’s really annoying. would be great if there was some way to put a stop to them.7 yearsSome bloke rang saying he was from BT OpenReach, warning me about hackers supposedly stealing my internet from my neighbours and risking my router’s safety. Got me scratching my head there. When I asked for an email to verify he was legit, he dodged the question big time. I ended the call after the usual nonsense - he kept prying about my computer and trying to get me to click on a dodgy website, probably to infect my PC and then demand a fee to sort it out. I then passed the number onto BT and guess what? They confirmed it was a bleedin’ scam!BT7 yearsI had a feeling it’d be some kind of scam, so I didn’t pick up at first. After looking the number up, I’m really relieved I didn’t answer!7 yearsGot a call from some bloke with a really strong Asian accent, saying he was from BT and going by Kevin Smith. Sounded totally dodgy to me!Kevin Smith7 yearsSomeone called saying they were from some company, asked me to turn on my computer which sounded a bit dodgy, so I just ended the call.7 yearsMy mum keeps getting calls from this number and it’s really stressing her out. She’s always scared it might be something important, like a message from her doctor, especially since she struggles with her hearing. These calls are just driving her mad.7 yearsSomebody called saying they were from Openreach, saying there was an issue with my internet connection. I said there wasn’t any problem, and then they just hung up on me.BT Openreach7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with BT Openreach saying my internet was slow. He wanted me to hit the Windows key plus R together so they could supposedly speed up my connection. Then he said to type in some weird address like [#]hubs10.webs[###]. Before I pressed OK, I quickly googled it and saw a warning about it being a serious security risk. I kept saying I couldn’t hear him properly while I did that. He kept pushing me to hit OK though. I just closed everything and ended the call straight away. Seems like a dodgy way to try and get into your personal info on your computer.BT OpenreachGoogle7 yearsAbout an hour back I got a call with my number hidden; the caller said they were from BT Openreach. I don’t think they should have been able to get hold of my number like that.BT Openreach7 yearsToo quiet, not a peep!7 yearsGot a call supposedly from BT about an issue with my broadband, but honestly, I haven't noticed any problems at all. The guy said the issues were 'invisible' to me or something like that. When I asked him for his details and where I could call back, he just hung up.BTSubmit Your Own Report (01609 777763)
