Callers usually have strong foreign accents, frequently Indian, and employ high-pressure tactics including threats to disconnect services or claims of unauthorised internet use. They may request personal information or direct recipients to view fake online reports. Many users have identified the calls as fraudulent, with no legitimate voicemail or valid call-back options.

4 yearsStay away from this lot, seriously - theyre a dodgy outfit and always up to no good! Dont waste your time or money, its a total scam!! Watch out!!!!AVOID THIS5 yearsGot a call from this number and another one with 938 at the end, the voice had a really heavy accent and said it was from BT. Since I wasn’t expecting any calls from BT, I just ended the call straight away.BT5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from BT Internet and Broadband. They told me my internet was being used by unauthorised people. Said they’d give me more info once I confirmed some details. They then sent a PIN to my phone and a different one to my email as ‘proof’. When I asked where she was calling from, she said 81 Newgate Street, which is BT’s main office. Seemed odd for a call centre to be operating from there. So I asked her what the closest tube station to her office was. She suddenly got really annoyed and threatened to cut off my broadband within 72 hours and block me for good!BTBroadbandNewgate St5 yearsGot multiple calls from some call centre, but they just hung up before anyone could even say a word.
