Got a weird call on my landline from an international number with some dodgy crackly American voice warning my BT internet would be cut off or something. Problem is, I’m not even a BT customer, and I’m on the Telephone Preference Service plus my number’s ex-directory. So no idea how they found me. This was actually the second call in about an hour, but both times the caller ID showed an international number, just different ones each time (01975960166). I just hung up straight away. Proper annoying!

I got a call from this number on my home phone, but it didn't show up on caller ID. I had to check it through 1471. They were asking weird questions about accessing my computer. Only my family and the bank even know my landline number, plus I’m registered on the TPS. Really suspicious, watch out!

Got a couple of calls within a day telling me my broadband was about to get cut off in five days. Just ended up hanging up straight away.

Got a weird call on my landline from some crackly automated American voice, saying my BT internet was about to get cut off or something. Problem is, I don’t even have BT and my number’s ex-directory plus I’m on the TPS list. The caller ID showed an international number. This was the second time in an hour I got this, but the first number was different, still showing international. Honestly, no clue how they found my number. Super dodgy.

Got a call from some Asian guys trying to get into my computer. When I said no, they got really rude and started calling me an idiot woman. Proper annoying!

Don't even bother answering, it's most likely a scam. Just look at what others are saying here.

Somebody rang up saying my internet was about to be cut off. What kind of con is this?

I got a call from someone claiming to be with British Telecom, warning me that my internet would be cut off in five days. They said hackers had got hold of my IP and were causing all sorts of problems with my connection. When I mentioned I’d look up the number to verify, they suddenly got pretty rude and handed me over to a “manager” who just dodged all my questions. Not totally sure if they’re up to no good, but I wouldn’t trust them at all.

Got cut off by the voicemail, so I just ended the call.
