Phone number ☎️ 016145987456 👆 is reported as a persistent scam originating from callers claiming to be from BT's technical or internet department. Callers often use poor English and foreign accents, attempting to convince recipients of non-existent internet issues. They frequently pressure recipients to provide access to their computer or personal details, referencing technical jargon such as CLSID to appear credible. The calls are intrusive and sometimes abusive, targeting vulnerable individuals including the elderly. Many have reported the calls as harassing, with repeated attempts in a single day. It is strongly advised not to engage or share any information, and to block the number or use call-blocking devices to prevent further contact. Genuine BT communications would never ask for personal computer access in this manner.

8 yearsI just got a ring from this number, but no one picked up. After a bit, I could hear a woman laughing before the line went dead.

Cheers for letting me know!BT8 yearsThere was this bloke calling me about BT internet, trying to convince me of some rubbish. I wasted a good 15 minutes telling him I wasn’t fooled and he was just making it up. You could tell he was getting annoyed by the end.BT8 yearsThere was this bloke ringing me about my BT internet, claiming all sorts of rubbish.

I could tell he was getting annoyed by the end!BT8 yearsGot a call from 016145987456 claiming there’s a problem with my internet. I just played along and said I don’t even own a phone, which threw them right off! When they didn’t back off straight away, I told them their internet and phone lines must be completely messed up. Then I cheekily suggested if they gave me their bank info, I could sort it out for them straight away. Good fun watching them get all confused!8 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from TPS. I told them I’m elderly and live on my own, then quickly ended the call. These kinds of calls really feel like harassment to me.Telephone Preference Service8 yearsI got called from this number and it turned out to be some dodgy internet scam. I ended up getting a CPR V5000 call blocker, and since then, no more annoying calls from them. Worth getting if you want peace of mind. Cheers, Gerald.Gerald8 yearsGot a call off an Asian guy saying my BT broadband would be cut off for a fortnight. I just told him to find real work instead of trying to scam people.BT8 yearsLooks like one of those online scams to me. Definitely don’t trust it!8 yearsGot a call from an Asian woman claiming there was an issue with my internet. She asked if I was the main user and started going on about BT. Then she tried to convince me to switch on my computer. I told her straight away it’s a scam, but she wouldn’t let me speak, just kept jabbering away. When I said I wasn’t with BT, she insisted BT handles all internet in the UK. I mentioned my nephew works in IT at the local uni and she just hung up.

After a while I couldn’t even get a chance to say anything and then they just ended the call on me.
