7 yearsI got a call supposedly from an HMRC officer about some tax fraud they claimed I was involved in. Luckily, I had already heard about these scams so I wasn't fooled when they rang!HMRC7 yearsGot a call from some recorded voice, sounded like BT tech support saying my internet's been compromised!BT7 yearsTried calling back a few times today, but only got through once. I could hear some sort of office noise in the background, but nobody actually spoke to me. Pretty sure it’s a scam!7 yearsI got a call from 01648574842, and the person claimed to be from BT. When I challenged them about their scams, they just hung up on me. Proper dodgy!BT7 yearsGot a call from some Asian guy on the 31st of May from 1425, telling me my internet was going to be cut off or something like that. Thought it was a bit daft because I live in Hull and we don’t use BT here, we have our own provider. He kept insisting that BT covers the entire country, which just isn’t true. Definitely didn’t come across as very smart!BTHull7 yearsI looked up the 01648 code and apparently, it isn’t actually in use. Sounds like it’s a fake number trying to get through. I don’t bother blocking it anymore, just let it go to my voicemail and usually they end up hanging up anyway.7 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent claiming to be from BT. She told me my phone line was about to be disconnected because of some letters they’d sent out. Then she started rambling about my family using various services - Netflix was mentioned but I didn’t catch the rest - and said we’d been hacked. She wanted to know what laptops I had, but I told her if she was truly from BT, she’d already have that info. When I asked her which company she was actually calling from, she just hung up on me. Pretty obvious it was a scam.BTNetflix7 yearsGot a call on 31st May 2019 around 1:47 PM. I could hear some stuff going on in the background but then the call just dropped out. I've blocked the number now.7 yearsJust like loads of others, got a call from a woman with a really strong Asian accent who said her name was Mary. She claimed they were about to cut off my internet tomorrow. I just said, "Fine by me, I'd enjoy the silence." They've told me I'll be disconnected about 35 times since last year now. No chance that’s actually gonna happen.Mary7 yearsYou could mention legal consequences, like a fine possibly as high as £500,000, that might really get their attention.7 yearsGot a suspicious call from someone with an Asian accent saying they were from BT, blaming my internet speed. They claimed I didn’t even have internet! As soon as I called them out on it, the line went dead super fast. Total scam from what sounded like the Indian subcontinent.BT7 yearsNot a single word from them, just silent on the line.7 yearsGot a call earlier claiming to be from BT, sounded like a total scam. I told the guy I was willing to listen, then asked him if he realised how low it is to try and rob hardworking folks who’ve done nothing wrong. He went quiet, so I kept going: “Why not try tricking one of your mates and see how that feels? Honestly, you’re just scum with no place in this world, unless you decide to turn things around.” He cut me off straight away. Proper pathetic people these scammers are.BT7 yearsI've had enough of those idiots calling, threatening to disconnect my internet unless I let them into my computer. Just got another call, but when I answered there was nothing on the other end, so I just hung up.7 yearsGot a call that seemed like a complete scam.7 yearsGot a call from a guy who sounded Asian, with loads of background noise like a busy call centre. He politely told me he was calling from BT and warned that my internet might be off for a couple of days. I played along and said, "Fantastic, that’s brill news." He replied, "Thank you very much, Madam," and then just ended the call! Definitely seemed like a dodgy scam to me.BTMadam7 yearsGot a call saying it was from BT Tech Support, but it stopped straight away when I didn’t agree to give any details.BT Tech Team7 yearsI answered and just caught some faint sounds, like someone talking far away, then the call ended abruptly.7 yearsThe person said they were from BT, but it was clear it was a con.
