I’ve been getting calls from BT internet for the past week, saying my computer is infected and that my internet will be cut off unless I download this program to fix it. It’s been nonstop and really annoying. Total nuisance!

The caller claimed they were from BT and warned me in a really scary way that my internet would be cut off soon. It felt quite threatening.

I attempted to ring back this number, but an automated message came on saying it's not available right now. They then told me to ring 0871 918 9188 instead - apparently that's a legit company called Switch Connect or Switch Numbers or something like that. When I did call the 0871 number, the chap there said it might just be someone randomly dialling numbers. I often get calls from different numbers (not this one), and whenever I pick up, they just hang up straight away. Sometimes it’s an international number with someone speaking a foreign language on the other end.

Someone rang claiming to be from BT and said they’d picked up some 'errors' from my internet. They wanted my login info and all that. If this is a scam phone number, why hasn’t it been shut down yet? Seems dodgy to me.

unknown number - i normally don’t pick up calls from numbers i don’t recognise, but this time i did. after i answered, there was nothing but silence for about 3 or 4 seconds. i just ended the call quietly and put the phone down. fingers crossed they won’t ring me again.

This number has called me two times now. The first call was someone saying my internet had a virus. The next time, they just cut the call, no explanation. Really hope they stop bothering me soon.

Didn't get a single ring outside lunchtime, but during that midday hour, my phone buzzed 4 times with complete silence on the other end.

Didn't catch the call on my landline, so I tried 1471 to see who rang me. An automated voice said the number wasn't active and then gave me another number, 0871 918 9188. When I rang that one back, it was a legit company called Switch Connect or something similar. They told me it was likely just a random call and said the first part of the number matched their Thetford area, but the rest of the digits weren’t familiar to them. Pretty odd situation!

Got a call from someone claiming to be BT saying there was an issue with my internet. They said they could sort it out if I just switched my computer on... seemed a bit off to me.

Got a call from someone saying they're with BT. They told me my computer was sending out messages and that it means it's got a virus. Then they warned me they’d disconnect my internet πŸ˜‚ I just said cheers, I’ll stop the messages then and they ended the call right there.
