Phone number โ๏ธ 01818705078 ๐ is reported as a widespread scam involving callers claiming to be from BT or BT Openreach, often with Asian or Irish accents. They allege internet security issues such as hacked or public IP addresses, aiming to alarm recipients into engagement. Callers can be persistent, sometimes using abusive language when challenged. Legitimate BT confirms no association with these calls. Many advise not to engage but instead block the number promptly. Reports indicate the scammer transfers or changes stories when questioned and refuses verifiable contact details. Modern call-blocking features prove helpful in filtering these nuisance calls.

Reports on phone number 01818705078
8 yearsTypical BT again, just rubbish. The bloke kept saying he'd keep ringing until I got my husband on the phone. Guess he eventually gave up when all he could hear was the noisy kids' play bus in the background. ??8 yearsGot another call pretending to be BT. If you try calling the number back, it doesn't even show up as legit. Just messin’ about with their time is all. How is this even allowed?8 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to be from BT Openreach, stating that my Internet connection was somehow compromised and publicly accessible. I hung up, but they called me right back! I chose to ignore it that time. Just last week, I had a similar encounter with someone purporting to be from Microsoft in Doncaster. Honestly, what a bunch of madcaps!BT OpenreachMicrosoftDoncaster8 yearsSome bloke rang me pretending to be from BT about my internet and IP stuff. If you've nothing better to do, just humour them for a bit and then tell them you'll ring BT yourself - they vanish quick smart!BT8 yearsGot a call from this number around 12:45 today. The guy had a pretty slow Asian accent and you could hear loads of noise in the background. He claimed to be from BT, saying there were alerts about my internet being hacked and asked if anyone else was using my connection. I knew straight away it was a con, so I just played along to kill some time. If they’re using a BT number, why isn’t there anything done to stop them? They should be nailed and punished properly! Honestly, some sort of harsh public penalty would be fitting for these scammers!8 years01818705078 keeps ringing us non-stop. My partner asked them to stop calling, but as soon as she told them that, they called straight back and started swearing. Then they phoned again to personally insult me. Does anyone know the right number to report this harassment?8 yearsThis number tried ringing me yesterday and again today, but cause my caller ID shows unknown callers, I never pick up unless I recognise the number. If it’s important, they usually leave a voicemail. I’ve finally blocked it now so it doesn’t disturb me at all. Looks like I might need to block more numbers starting with 0181 tho.8 yearsI received a call from a lady purporting to represent BT, and she sounded like she was from India. I terminated the call before she could elaborate further.BTIndia8 yearsGot a call from someone with an Irish accent saying, “This is June from BT.” I just replied, “Yeah, right you’re not,” and ended the call. They’ve been ringing me loads before this as well.BT8 yearsSome bloke with an Asian accent called saying he was from BT tech support, saying my IP address had been exposed. But I’m not even with BT! I told him to send an email to my official BT account if he really worked there. That seemed to throw him off. Total scammers, basically.BT8 yearsTotal scam, don't trust 'em!8 yearsHad a weird call from some Asian bloke trying to pull a fast one using all this tech jargon. He claimed my IP was out there for everyone to see and I needed to make it private again. So, I asked him to give me my IP address to check if he was even talking about my setup. Then he said no one else knew my IP. When I asked for a number to ring him back, he just cut the call. Obviously a scam - and I don’t even use BT broadband anyway!Asia8 yearsGot a call from someone with an accent, talking about my internet. They said nothing really and just ended the call. Seems like another one of those dodgy scams from 01818705079.8 yearsGot a call from some fake BT person, sounded Asian. Decided to mess about and act like I was helping them out. They even put me through to a senior tech. I kept the convo going for like 7 minutes before telling them to piss off and calling them out on their scam. If you keep these scammers busy with a chat, it stops them wasting time trying to trick someone else. Let's do our bit to shield the elderly from these dodgy calls.BT8 yearsGot a call yesterday from a lady who said her name was Lisa and claimed to be from BT Internet. She told me there was an issue with my internet and asked if I was online at that moment. I asked for a callback number so I could check if it was genuinely BT. Instead of giving me one, she started swearing at me and calling me names, so I just hung up. The same number rang me again later in the day but I’ve blocked it now.Lisa8 yearsGot a call from an Asian lady claiming to be from BT, saying there was an issue with my internet. I kept asking her questions and her answers made no sense at all. After I called her out a third time, she just told me to f### off! Honestly, I couldn’t stop laughing, what a load of muppets.BT8 yearsGot a call from someone with a strong foreign accent who just wouldn’t give up. When I asked for their number, they told me it was 0800 369 4253. I said I’d phone them later, but I think they were being dishonest.8 yearsToday, we got a call but luckily our phone system blocked it straight away. Honestly, having a phone with a good call blocker is a lifesaver - it keeps out those annoying people who won’t even say who they are.8 yearsI just rang BT and they assured me the call wasn’t from them. Seems clear this is some dodgy lot trying to hack into IPs. Don’t give them the chance, hang up straight away and block that number xBT8 yearsGot a call from some bloke with an Asian accent who said his name was Oliver, claiming to work for BT Openreach. He told me there were issues with my internet security. Didn’t buy it though, couldn’t prove he was legit, so I just ended the call.OliverBT Openreach8 yearsGot two calls less than an hour apart, both with an Asian lady talking about the internet. Didn't even bother, just hung up straight away each time.8 yearsGot calls from them two days in a row, first yesterday then again today. They claimed to be from some software department and said my computer had issues. Ended the call straight away. Pretty clear it's a scam.Submit Your Own Report (01818 705078)
