2 yearsGot 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.EERoystonAmazonPress10 yearsI’d really appreciate it if this number could be added to the blocked list: 0g phone02820732176. Thank you!10 yearsToday 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.10 yearsIt appears that the caller isn't from these shores. I'd rather not receive calls from them.10 yearsAbsolute 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!BT10 yearsGot cut off at 11:23 when the answering machine kicked in. Really annoying and a proper nuisance.10 yearsAint 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.10 yearshad 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.10 yearsI 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.10 yearsI'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!10 yearsIt's really quite annoying that they're not English. I prefer they not give me a ring at all, to be honest.10 yearsThe moment my answerphone picked up, the call just dropped off.10 yearsGot 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!BT10 yearsI got a call and after I answered, there was this weird noise, kinda like what you hear from a fax machine. It was really strange.10 yearsLike others have said, best thing to do is just block this number if you can.10 yearsI was informed that there seemed to be an issue with my internet connection.10 yearsthey really dont know when to quit, do they? the caller's english was obviously pretty bad, which made me doubt the whole thing straight away. bunch of absolute plonkers, the lot of them. big thanks to everyone who's shared their experiences, it's really helped keep folks aware.10 yearsReceived a silent call; there was no one on the line. I hung about for more than a minute, and then I decided to block the number. Clearly a scam!10 yearsGot 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.BT10 yearsgot 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!10 yearsSo 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!BT10 yearsHad 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!ChristineBT Technical ServicesWalter Grant10 yearsThey 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.BT10 yearsGot 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.BT10 yearsi'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.BT10 yearsA 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.BT10 yearsI'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!Submit Your Own Report (01763 242596)
