8 yearsMy elderly parents have been getting nonstop calls from this number claiming they’re behind on broadband bills and will have their service cut off if they don’t pay straight away. The thing is, they don’t even have broadband! When they try to explain this, the caller just hangs up and then rings right back repeatedly. It's really frustrating for them.8 yearsGot a robotic call warning about some hacked internet nonsense. Total rubbish, just blocked it!8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Steve Johnson, but his voice was nothing like you'd expect, honestly reminded me of Mahatma Gandhi. When I asked where he was calling from, he said BT at 81 Newgate Street, London. Then I pointed out the number was actually from Orpington, which didn’t add up at all. I ended the call before I could tell him what I really thought - a complete con artist!Steve JohnsonMahatma GandhiBTNewgate StreetLondon8 yearsI keep getting calls every day from some woman who sounds really American. I just end up hanging up because honestly, I don’t have any way to block the number. It’s just a bit of an annoying bother, really.8 yearsJust got another online scam call. Best to hang up and put the number on block.8 yearsI just received a pre-recorded call claiming to be from my 'internet service provider', saying there’s an issue with a breached IP address. Definitely sounds like a scam to me!8 yearsReceived a call claiming my internet was hacked, total scam. Best thing is to just hang up straight away, don't stay on the phone.8 yearsGot a call from some automated voice with an American accent, claiming my internet was at risk and would get cut off soon. They told me to press 1 to speak to an engineer but I just ended the call.8 yearsAt around 3.10 pm on January 12th, I got a call from 01689-871411. An automated voice said my IP address was at risk and asked me to press '1' for details. When I pressed it, nothing happened. Definitely a scam!8 yearsThis number is totally dodgy. They use a robot voice to ring you and want you to press ‘1’ or ‘2’ so it knows you’re a real person who might fall for their tricks. Once they get you on the line, the scam begins. If you get a call like this, just ignore it and hang up right away.8 yearsGot a dodgy robo call about my internet IP being messed up. They told me not to press 1 and just to end the call. Definitely a scam!8 yearsI’ve received calls from this number recently, and they’re clearly automated with a distinctly American voice. When I tried to return the call and hit 1, I ended up in a raucous Indian call centre. They claimed that my internet would be cut off unless I forked out some cash. Strangely, they first mentioned a provider I don’t even use, and when I pointed that out, they suddenly switched to an old provider I had about three years back. After I corrected them again, they just hung up on me! It’s maddening-I've had three of these irritating calls in just two days! Now, I’ve taken to letting my answering machine deal with these pesky automated messages and simply deleting them afterwards.8 yearsI also had an automated phone call from this number recently. The voice claimed to be from my internet service provider, warning me that my IP address had been hacked and would be shut down in the next day or two. I believe they tried to sell me something afterwards, but I didn’t stick around to find out! I’d be more inclined to offer them a piece of my mind rather than parting with any of my hard-earned dosh. Definitely a scam, in my opinion!8 yearsI recently received a pre-recorded message from this number, claiming they needed to discuss some internet-related details because my information was supposedly being misused abroad. I decided to hang up, as it struck me as likely a scam.Submit Your Own Report (01689 871411)
