Some bloke said my broadband was hacked and claimed he was from BT. I said he was trying to scam me. Then he threatened to disconnect my internet. I told him go ahead, I don’t care. He just hung up on me.

Received a call claiming to be from BT, but it’s absolute nonsense. I'm not affiliated with them at all, so I told them to jog on!

Got a call earlier today from a bloke named Eric who claimed to be from “The BT”. He said there was some kinda issue with my internet and that someone was trying to break in. I cheekily asked if he needed my bank info, but he said no, just access to my router. I told him thanks but no thanks, this is a scam and gave him a firm but polite send off, then hung up and blocked the number. Totally crazy how these lot operate. Watch out because they want to get into your router, not your bank details. Proper dodgy.

I picked up the phone and the person said it was 'BT'. I asked what 'BT' actually meant because I was certain it wasn’t British Telecom on the line. The caller insisted it was British Telecom and quickly started explaining some issue about downloading software that was supposedly messing up my computer. I told him straight away that I was certain it wasn’t BT calling, and he got annoyed, asking why I was bothering him. I told him he had some nerve ringing me pretending to be British Telecom and wasting my time. Then he hung up.

Yesterday, I got loads of calls from this number. One time the caller ID showed it was coming from abroad, but I don’t usually pick up if it says International. So, looks like they’ve started using a UK number to get past that. When I finally picked up the first call, they tried to say they were from BT. Total nonsense if you ask me.

I got a call saying something about illegal internet use linked to BT, but I don't even have BT as my provider. The same bloke called me a couple times in about two hours. Eventually, I told him exactly what I thought. Was pretty obvious he wanted to get into my laptop or something.

Got a call on my home phone from 01789268046, they tried ringing me 4 times today. I’m with Sky for internet, so I called them up to check and they said that number isn’t on their files at all, so it’s gotta be some kind of scam. Best not to answer or trust it.

Got a couple of calls from this number just 10 minutes apart. Didn’t pick up and they didn’t leave a voicemail either. After reading what others said here, I’ve decided to block it. Cheers for the heads-up!

I've been getting calls from 01789268046 all the time, saying there's an issue with my BT wireless internet. When I told them I don't have BT, they insisted that BT provides internet to every home in the UK. That was when I just hung up, because it sounded fishy to me. They keep ringing non stop though, definitely seems like a scam.

Got a call from someone pretending to be with BT, saying they were gonna help me with my home network access from outside. They walked me through finding my local IP address. I just played along for a bit and then they finally gave up and ended the call. Don’t give these people any details - it’s definitely a scam.

This number called me three times today and each time it was annoying. First, someone said my internet was out. The second time, I hung up before the woman got to finish talking. The third call was just dead silence. Total waste of time, so don’t bother answering if you see it!

Got a call from some people pretending to be BT, saying my internet was hacked or something. I didn’t buy it, so I just ended the call and rang BT myself. Turns out it wasn’t them at all, and they never phone like that. Sounds like a scam, maybe from around India or Pakistan. Best thing is to just hang up straight away.

This morning I got a call from a woman with an Indian accent saying my BT service would be cut off in 48 hours because some malware was downloaded onto my laptop, which allegedly I wasn’t aware of. I told her straight up I don’t even own a computer or laptop, just use my iPhone for internet stuff. As soon as I said that, she just dropped the call on me. Total scam, watch out everyone!
