This has got to be a scam honestly. It's so frustrating how nothing ever gets done to put an end to these crooks!

Over the last couple of days, I got calls from someone named Kate using different numbers - first from 01710405231 and then 01636258501. Both times, she claimed my internet was compromised. Pretty suspicious!

this number kept ringing my phone but no one spoke, my line’s ex-directory and i’m signed up to the telephone preference service too. i raised a complaint with ofcom, spoke to a woman who was quite friendly but mostly gave excuses and reasons why nothing would happen. she did mention if enough people lodge separate complaints, they might take it seriously then. best advice i can give is whenever you get a call from this number, make sure you fill in one of those ofcom complaint forms.

Answered the phone at 12:59 and as soon as I picked up, the caller just hung up right away.

Got a robo call from some woman claiming to be Kate, saying my internet provider was hacked and apparently there’d been a call to some government office. She warned my landline would get disconnected within 24 hours unless I called a certain number back. Didn’t feel right, so I just hung up.

got a robocall from someone claiming to be my internet provider saying there was a security issue. I didn’t stay on the line long enough to talk to their “specialist” because it really sounded like one of those phishing scams or a dodgy call.

Got this automated voice first, then a woman came on who had no clue about my internet company. Didn't trust it, so I blocked the number thinking it was a scam.

I got a call telling me my landline would be disconnected in a day if I didn’t sort out some internet issue with them. I told them to go ahead and cut it off, I’ll just stick to my mobile. Total scam, watch out!

I got a call from a machine saying my landline and internet got hacked, then it mentioned some secret gov project. The message was like "Please wait! A specialist will be with you shortly." But as soon as the friendly lady started chatting to me, she just cut the call. Very weird!
