I received a call from someone claiming to be from BT, insisting that my IP address and router had been hacked by someone from abroad. I decided to end the conversation.

Utilising BT for fraudulent activities.

Received a call with a rather alarming message about supposedly terminating my internet connection, then they abruptly ended the conversation.

Looks like I've stumbled upon a dodgy BT scammer at work. It's rather alarming how these hackers operate these days!

This number has been pestering me every few hours without fail. I've now had enough and decided to block it!

Just like all the others – it’s a total con.

Just like countless others, this seems to be a scam – targeting the elderly and those who are none the wiser!

I recently received a rather alarming phone call, claiming that my IP address had been breached. I promptly ended the call and looked up the number. Is it just a scam or some dodgy telemarketing?

I received a message saying that my IP address had been breached, and they urged me to press a button to connect with a technician. I decided not to engage and ended the call instead.

It’s Shirley again, that dreadful automated voice! She's trying to warn me that my internet is about to be disconnected and then bombards me with options—press one for this, two for that. Clearly another dodgy scam attempt! I really hope she picks up on all of our collective sentiments: “Just leave us be!”

Goodness me, Shirley! Surely you can't be serious. My IP address has been compromised? I would have expected my internet service provider to reach out to me directly with an actual phone number!

Convict

This number keeps popping up, and I've come to discover it's linked to someone named Shelley. It's as if some automated system is making a mockery of them. Can't we do anything to put a halt to this nonsense?

Just had a rather bothersome call from a robotic scammer named SHIRLEY, claiming my internet would be cut off. Honestly, do these individuals have any more worthwhile pursuits? I can say for certain that my landline is now out of service after enduring four of these ridiculous scam attempts in merely two hours!

Received a couple of calls claiming my internet has been compromised, instructing me to press 1 to get technical assistance. Sounds like a dodgy scam to me!

I received a call from someone who seemed to be of Asian descent, claiming there was a hiccup with my internet connection. I explained that I hadn’t even powered up the hub, so there wasn’t an issue at all, and everything was absolutely fine on my end. To be honest, I half-expected him to request my 16-digit credit card info and the security code from the back!

Just like many others have mentioned, I received a call from an automated voice informing me that my IP address has been breached in various nations. This was the third time today I'd been harassed by this nonsense—I've now added them to my blocked list!

What an absolute headache these con artists are! I received a call filled with all sorts of background racket typical of a call centre, and just like that, the line went silent. I'm seriously considering putting an end to my landline altogether, sticking solely with BT for my broadband needs.

FRAUD ALERT - I've noticed that they are also showing an 0800 number on caller ID. Numerous providers now have free options to block these types of calls, so I recommend reaching out to your phone company to see what they offer. I had a chat with my internet service provider regarding these calls, and they validated that it's indeed a scam.

01827830898 appears to be a dodgy number. I received a call from a robotic female voice claiming my IP address had been jeopardised by a couple of foreign nations. They urged me to press Button 1 to speak with a technician. I promptly ended the call.

The line's gone quiet. I've put a stop to all calls beginning with 018.

I received a recorded message claiming, "Your computer has been hacked - press 1 to switch to a new IP provider." Clearly, it's just another scam. I decided to disregard it.

I just received a call from a robotic voice claiming my internet was going to be cut off within a day unless I pressed a certain number to speak with one of their so-called technicians. I hung up immediately! This definitely sounds like something the Fraud Squad should be alerted to.

I tend to ignore calls from unfamiliar numbers. This morning, I received a ring from this particular number and, having read the information provided above, I've decided to block it entirely.

Claiming they'll disconnect your internet service is nothing but a con.

I just received an automated call claiming they’ve been attempting to reach me and that my internet service will be terminated within a day. I promptly ended the call and decided to disregard it altogether.

Received three calls yesterday, all with the same automated message, and then this morning, I got another one from a different number. The digits were 01257309223. Best to just disregard it and hang up!

Absolutely ludicrous! They’re just threatening to cut off my compromised internet connection! What a load of nonsense!

Just like others have mentioned, I've been receiving calls from a robotic voice named Shirley on my landline, claiming that my IP address has been breached in multiple countries. Such a bizarre situation! It’s quite unnerving, to be honest.

I had a similar run-in with 01827830898, just like many others have reported. It was a recorded message claiming I needed to press 1 to speak to some sort of engineer. Typical scam nonsense, if you ask me.

I received a couple of calls over the past two days from someone claiming to be from their office. They were waffling on about an issue with my internet connection. Complete nonsense if you ask me!

I've gone ahead and flagged that number with the Telephone Preference Service. I highly suggest that you sign up all of your phone numbers with them. It does actually help reduce the number of nuisance calls you receive.

Just got a rather dubious call. A robotic voice informed me that my internet security had been breached and that my service would be cut off unless I took immediate action, the usual rigmarole. I've since added the number to my blocked list.

Total scam alert! I've received two calls from them today alone. It's the same robotic voice each time, claiming they've unsuccessfully attempted to reach me on multiple occasions. Apparently, my internet is at risk of being cut off in the next day or two. They urge me to press 1 to connect with some so-called engineer to sort out a new IP address. Naturally, I hung up straight away.

I just got a call from an “unknown” internet service provider. It’s clearly a scam. It was a recorded message from a woman with an American accent.

Just like every other time. That mechanical voice came through, and then they disconnected.

Another dodgy caller on the loose! I've already barred this number, yet they keep popping up under different guises. It’s utterly tiresome having to constantly fend off these pesky scam attempts!

Received a robotic call purporting to be from my "Internet Service Provider", threatening to disconnect my service unless I contacted their technician. Absolute nonsense! As an internet consultant, I'm well aware of the tricks these scammers use.

Received a call earlier today from someone claiming there was an issue with my internet and that I needed to change my IP address. I promptly hung up. Definitely sounds like a dodgy scam to me!

Yet another dodgy call, the second one I've received today, purporting that my internet has been breached. I've gone ahead and blocked any further calls from them!

It won't stop calling!

Oh, here we go again – it’s another one of those chaps, this time with an American twang, saying they’re from “internet services.” Reminds me of that classic Billy Connolly bit where he quips, “something should be sorted out for your lot; hanging's far too lenient, what you lot really deserve is a right good kick up the backside!" Can't they come up with something a bit more original?

Received the second call today; I decided to disregard the initial one. It was yet another automated message, this time from an American woman, claiming that my internet would be terminated due to my IP address being apparently hacked from multiple countries. I promptly hung up; I truly wish they’d put an end to this nonsense!

As several individuals have noted, this appears to be a fraudulent service operating online.
