This bloke said he was calling from Virgin, claiming there was an issue with my internet. We ran a speed test together that showed some faults, then he asked me to download some software so he could access my computer remotely. I told him I wasn’t about to install anything on my PC, and then the call just cut off. Best to just ignore calls like this.

I thought it might be about my rubbish Virgin connection but, like others have said, the call was full of background noise and just really poor quality so I ended up having to hang up.

I received a call from someone claiming to be from Virgin, and they were supposedly reaching out to help me with my ongoing broadband troubles from the last week. However, I’m certain it was just a con artist!

Got a call from someone sounding Indian claiming to be Virgin Media, saying there was an issue with my connection. When I asked for any kind of proof, they just started swearing at me and told me to multiply, then hung up. Honestly, watch out - it’s a total scam.

It was like a terrible Skype call, loads of garbled noise like it was coming through a windy pipe. I kept saying "Sorry, I can't hear you," more than once before I just ended the call.
