Phone number ☎️ 016249107080 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance scam involving repeated calls from an Indian-accented caller claiming to be from TalkTalk about internet or router issues. Callers hang up quickly if not engaged or if the target denies problems, then call back often multiple times a day. The scammers appear well informed, possibly using leaked or sold customer info. Victims report attempts to gain remote access to computers and scare tactics about data loss or disconnection. Despite numbers being ex-directory, calls continue, causing frustration and doubts about TalkTalk’s ability to stop the scam. Many label it a total scam with voiced annoyance over aggressive, scripted calls that hang up if challenged or if an answering machine picks up.

10 yearsGot a call early today around 9.52am from this number, but I chose not to pick up. That number kept ringing me loads last year too, with some bloke warning that my computer was in serious trouble and needed fixing right away or I'd lose everything. The guy sounded Asian and spoke really nicely, claimed he was from Talk Talk tech support. Thing is, I don’t understand how he managed to get hold of my number since I’m supposed to be unlisted. Quite strange.10 yearsSix calls in just four days from Talk Talk now, bit much innit?TalkTalk10 yearsFor ages now, this pesky number has been calling our landline and we never pick up. TalkTalk hasn’t done a thing to block them, so we just keep the answerphone switched on all the time. It’s so irritating!TalkTalk10 yearsIm so over this number. If i dont pick up they just keep on buzzing me non stop. Yesterday they called 8 times starting from 8 in the morning! And today they started all over again. Cant someone do anything to stop this? Its really annoying.10 yearsGot a call from a guy who sounded Asian, could hear a bunch of chatter like he was at some sort of call centre. He said he was from TalkTalk and told me there was a problem with my router.TalkTalk10 yearsGot a call from Talk Talk claiming my internet router had corrupt files. I just hung up on them straight away. They kept ringing, warning my internet would be cut off within 24 hours. They tried to get me to open my laptop and press the Windows key and R at the same time so they could get remote access. Lucky for me, I knew what that shortcut did and didn’t fall for it.TalkTalk10 yearsBlimey, they don’t hang about! Got two calls from them in just one hour. Both times I was putting my answering machine on and they hung up straight away.10 yearsGot another call that sounded like one of those typical talktalk scams from Asia (or maybe it’s just straight up a s#am?).10 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming he was from TalkTalk, said there were issues with my internet router and he’d help me sort it out. He asked me to get onto my computer so he could walk me through the fixes. I told him I’d ring back later and then he just cut me off. Total scam! Avoid!TalkTalk10 yearsWhenever I get a call from an unknown number, I make sure not to answer first. This particular number, plus a few others like it recently, just hangs up really quickly. I block them straight away but they keep coming back with different numbers. You can report these scammy callers on the TalkTalk site, by the way. It feels like I get these annoying calls on and off, all claiming to be from TalkTalk. I reckon there might be a security issue on their end or something.TalkTalk10 yearsI just hang up straight away when they ring. These calls keep coming from numbers saying they’re from TalkTalk, BT or even BT OpenReach. My other half lost his cool with them last Friday but they just stick to their script no matter what. Complete scam, no doubt about it!TalkTalkBTBT OpenReach10 yearsWhat a pain in the neck! I’ve got my number listed as ex-directory, yet these calls keep coming through. Talktalk do absolutely nothing to help, makes me wonder if they’re selling our numbers or something!TalkTalkSubmit Your Own Report (16249107080)
