Got a call from a recorded woman’s voice saying my IP was hacked. Then it told me to press 1 to talk to the 'tech experts' - as if I’m gonna fall for that!

WATCH OUT!! They pretend to be from BT or Ofcom, telling you your account got hacked or your internet is about to be cut off. Then come the rubbish about paying with your credit card to fix the problem. Total SCAM!! Stay sharp people!!

I misread it as "off till technical" and ended up hanging up the phone.

Got a ring from this number just now, same as what others mentioned. An automated voice pretending to be from Ofcom saying there’s hackers on my line and my internet will be disconnected. It asked me to press buttons for BT or something else. I hung up straight away! I reckon some people might actually press those buttons and probably end up paying ridiculous fees!

Got a recorded call saying my internet would be cut off in 24 hours. Funny thing is, this is already the second time I've had a call like this, the first one was just last week!

Got one of those calls again saying my internet’s gonna get cut off soon. You’d have thought the government and the internet companies would team up by now to stop these dodgy calls.

Got a recorded call claiming it was BT, saying our internet would be disconnected in 24 hours if we didn’t sort out the account. Then connection dropped. I checked caller ID with 1471 and looked up the number online because it seemed dodgy. Turned out it was a total scam.

Complete rip-off for sure. They must have nothing better to do with their time. I just blocked them straight away. And I’m pretty sure their breath isn’t worth mentioning either!

Got a call from an unknown number, didnt pick up and just blocked it straight away. I’m curious though, why isn’t there some sort of system that tracks these reports and shuts down the really annoying or risky ones? I get around three or four of these calls daily. I always ignore them but they’re so bloody annoying!

I get these calls all the time, sometimes even twice a day, telling me my BT line's been stopped or something like that. It's so annoying that I'm considering paying my phone company to block these calls for me.

This morning at about 10:30 I got a call from 01803897388 saying my BT line was going to be disconnected because there was some issue with my international line and apparently they’d found hacking on it. They told me to press 1 but I don’t even have BT. The number looks like it’s from Torquay but the call was marked as coming from abroad!

Got a call this morning from someone who said my email had been hacked and that they'd connect me to a BT engineer - sounded really believable. I hung up straight away but it was pretty convincing, could easily fool a lot of people.

Today, this number rang me a couple of times. I didn’t pick up because it kept buzzing for ages. My phone showed it as international, but the code looked like it’s from the UK.

Got a call from 01803897388 which showed up as International even though it's actually a Torquay area code. The automated voice claimed to be from Ofcom, warning that my internet would be disconnected because of hacking issues. It then told me to press 1 or 2 to get in touch with BT. Seemed really dodgy to me.

Got a call from 01803897388 claiming to be BT saying my phone line was going to be cut off. Strange thing is, I don’t even have a BT account or any services with them!

Had a call from BT, some recorded message about my internet being hacked and about to be disconnected. They asked me to ring them back for assistance - felt like a total scam to me. Just seems like a trick to get money or personal info. Definitely wouldn't trust it.

Got one of those robo calls again while I was busy working! They claimed my internet was going to get disconnected, which isn't true at all. Totally pointless and annoying, but luckily they didn't manage to scam me. They're just after your cash, nothing else. Honestly, hope they get into trouble for this.

got called two times in a few mins but as soon as i picked up it just cut off. so irritating.

Got a robo call pretending to be from “Ofcom” saying my broadband would be cut off in a day if I didn’t ring BT and press 1. Total scam alert since I’m with a different provider, and Ofcom wouldn’t randomly phone you about your internet being cancelled like that.

Got a robo call from Ofcom telling me my internet’s gonna be disconnected within a day. It asked me to hit 1 if I'm with BT or 2 if I’m with another provider.

They kept going on about my internet acting up or something, yawn. Honestly, that’s gotta be the dullest scam voice I've ever had the misfortune to hear.

I got a call from this number and it was just some robot voice repeating stuff. Definitely an automated call, nothing personal or real. Just a waste of time, honestly. Didn’t even bother answering after the first beep next time.

Got a robocall saying it was Ofcom warning me my broadband would be cut off. Nah, definitely a scam trying the same old trick again.

My phone showed the call as coming from abroad, but this website says it’s from Torquay, which is hardly overseas. I didn’t pick up, and the person hung up right after the voicemail started. I use a landline that stores up to 200 numbers. If the caller ID can’t tell me who’s calling, I just don’t bother, expecting any real call to leave a message. Scammers normally don’t bother once they hit the answerphone. I do the same on my mobile and honestly think it works great.
