Got a scam call today. Earlier this morning, I had a silent call from an EE SIM mobile (07930 510414), prob a robocall just to check if I answered. Then a couple of hours later, I got another call from Royston (01763242569). It was a recorded message claiming my card got charged £300 by Amazon and that £1000 was sent abroad this morning. It told me to press 1 if I wanted to stop the charges. I blocked the number straight away.

I’d really appreciate it if this number could be added to the blocked list: 0g phone02820732176. Thank you!

Today I got two calls where there was just silence, or sometimes they’d say ‘hello dear’ if I didn’t hang up quick enough. Yesterday it happened once too. I ended up just hanging up each time.

It appears that the caller isn't from these shores. I'd rather not receive calls from them.

Absolute con! Don’t be taken in by it! They claim there’s an issue with your internet connection, blaming BT, but trust me, they’re not affiliated with BT at all. They’ll gain access to your computer or laptop without hesitation. Stay vigilant!

Got cut off at 11:23 when the answering machine kicked in. Really annoying and a proper nuisance.

Aint there any law against this kinda harassment? If someone showed up at my place and tried to break in, the cops would have them in cuffs straight away. But it seems totally fine for folks to mess with my computer by trying to trick me over the phone or online. Seriously, something’s gotta be done to stop these so-called 'criminals' from gettin away with this madness.

had a call from an asian bloke today, third time in as many days! he was saying i'd got major issues with my internet. i asked what company i was with and he guessed bt, told him he got it wrong and then he just hung up sharpish! you'd think there'd be a way to put a stop to these annoying, time-wasting, possibly dodgy calls by now.

I never even got a proper word in, the person just started shouting all sorts of horrible stuff at me and then hung up straight away.

I've just had a very peculiar phone call from that number. The chap on the other end had a strong accent that was definitely not British and was rambling on about some supposed issue with my Internet security on LINE! It was utterly baffling! I promptly ended the conversation. Please, do yourselves a favour and steer clear of such nonsense, everyone!

It's really quite annoying that they're not English. I prefer they not give me a ring at all, to be honest.

Got a call from someone claiming to be BT saying my internet was at risk. I decided to have a bit of fun and gave him a piece of my mind before he hung up. Absolute scumbags!

Got a call from 017623242596, they were going on about some internet issues. The funny thing is, we don’t even use BT for our internet! Pretty suspicious if you ask me.

got a call from this number earlier, but as soon as i picked up, the line just went dead. decided to look it up and turns out, these folks are known to be scam callers who keep bothering people. I’m sure they’ll try ringing again. watch out!

So this bloke from abroad called pretending to be a BT engineer, but he never asked me any of the usual security checks a proper BT agent would do! I called him out right away, saying he was nothing but a scammer and hacker. He tried to throw insults back at me, but I shut him down first! Then he just ended the call. The number 01763242596 is already on my blocked list. Honestly, some folks are just pathetic these days!

Had pretty much the same thing happen to me. A woman said she was Christine from BT tech support, then some guy, Walter Grant, came on and threatened to disconnect me in half an hour if I didn’t let them into my computer. I tried to get a number to ring them back, but right after I asked they just ended the call!

They claimed to be from BT and said there was an issue with my internet, but I told them my internet was working perfectly. They insisted it wasn’t and that the problem was quite serious, so I just ended the call.

Got a call from 01763242596, some bloke claiming to be from BT about my internet. I told him everything was fine on my end, but he kept insisting otherwise. Then he threatened to cut off my internet and just hung up. Tried calling back but it just kept ringing and no answer.

i've received quite a few calls from this number and others like 01763 242595, all saying they're from BT and warning me about some security issue with my internet. they keep offering to fix or upgrade it for me. when i told them i work in IT support, they quickly lost interest and ended the call. be super cautious if you get calls from this or nearby numbers, and definitely don’t share any personal info or let them mess with your computer.

A caller just rang claiming to be from BT, asking to get into my computer. I told them I’d be reporting this along with their other phone numbers to the police. After that, they abruptly ended the call, cursing as they went.

I've come across this number, as well as 01763 242595, and they both belong to the same dodgy outfit attempting to pull a BT Internet and Windows con. They instruct you to hit the Windows key and 'r', which brings up the run command. After that, they’ll ask for some sort of machine code to gain access to your computer. Once they’re in, they can take control of your entire system, and trust me, what follows is quite alarming. It’s best to steer clear of these tricksters - just hang up and, for good measure, make sure to BLOCK both numbers!
