On 28th July 2020, I got a call in London from the number 0185 3030 572 claiming to be from Mastercard or Visa, telling me that £600 had just been sent overseas from my bank. They said to press 1 if I wanted to stop the transaction. Pretty obvious this was a scam. I also received a few other calls that seemed fishy: 0159 2484 554 on 15th May 2020, 0156 3600 626 on 16th May 2020, and 0039 679 560 787 on 19th May 2020. My bank account didn’t have any £600 transfers going abroad during May, so I’m certain these calls were bogus.

No idea who it was, they rang when I wasn’t home and didn’t bother leaving a message. I've blocked the number now.

Got a call from an impostor claiming to be TalkTalk, saying they needed to discuss my account. Problem is, I'm not even a customer with them! Total scam.

Just after midday, I got a call from someone saying his name was Alec, claiming to work for Talktalk. He began going on about how my phone would be disconnected unless I called a certain number, similar to what others have described here. There was loads of noise in the background like a busy call centre. I didn’t let him get far though - I told him straight up he was clearly trying to scam me and then ended the call. Plus, I know 01853 isn’t even a valid area code, so that was another dead giveaway.

When I answered the phone, I stayed quiet but a woman kept saying hello over and over. There was some background noise that made it seem like she was calling from a call centre. Then she just ended the call.

This number has rung me three times today, but I never picked up and they didn’t leave any voicemail. Totally scammers, in my opinion. The first call came in at 7:44am, then again at 10:59am, and a third time at 11:58am on 5th October 2018.

Got a call from a woman with an Asian accent claiming to be from BT about my slow internet. I acted all surprised and after about 15 seconds told her the Police were listening in and working with their own Police. ‘Jenny’ sounded proper shocked, then I just ended the call.

I just got a call from this number, but as soon as I picked up, they hung up. I swear I could hear what sounded like a busy call centre in the background. Strangely though, I checked and the 01853 area code hasn’t even been given out to anyone yet!

I received a voicemail stating that my landline will be cut off within the next 24 hours. How odd! Xx

A young woman named Alina Gomes called me from this number earlier, saying my internet would be disconnected within a day because of some illegal access to a government site. We chatted for around 20 minutes before the call suddenly dropped. Hopefully, she rings back later to sort things out.

I already put this number on my block list, yet it keeps ringing me back. Like others have said, these scammers are claiming that my IP has been caught hacking a Government site and that they'll cut off my internet in a day. They want me to call some 020 number. Seriously, don’t fall for it!

This morning I got cut off straight away, three times in a row, after I said I was with the government. How come a UK number can be used to run this kind of scam? The phone company that owns this number should be fined for letting this happen!

I got a call from this number earlier today. It started with a robotic voice, and then I was connected to a woman with an accent who claimed that my internet had been compromised the night before. She warned me that if I didn’t comply, they would cut off my internet and phone service within the next day! She was rather pushy, to say the least. I soon figured out it was all a scam, so I hung up on her-only for her to ring me straight back! I've decided to block this number now.

Got a call from an automated voice claiming my IP was spotted hacking a government site. They said it was from a computer linked to me. Yesterday, I got a call from 01670602548 telling me to call back on "02035140156" or press 1 to sort it out, otherwise they'd cut the line in 24 hours. I didn't press anything but almost immediately another message said "Thank you for calling. We are connecting you to an operator." Today, I just hung up straight away without giving them any chance.
