Like some folks mentioned before, I just ended the call straight away.

I got a call from this number around 9 in the morning but I didn't pick up because I thought it was probably a scam. Then, annoyingly, it rang again at 11:25. These pesky calls come through at least twice daily. Honestly, I'm relieved I ignored them both times.

On the 7th of Feb at about 11:18, I got this recorded message from a woman saying something like "Your IP address has been hacked in multiple countries" and then "we can provide you a new IP foc"... and then to press 1 to speak to a tech. Yeah, no thanks!!!

Fraudsters! They claimed that my computer had been compromised.

Got a recorded call saying it was OFCOM about some compulsory broadband upgrade. They tried to connect me to some "adviser" but neither of us said a word, then the call just cut off. Totally a scam.

Got a call early this morning, about 8:30, from 01863269656. It was one of those automated messages with a really stern bloke's voice saying it was Ofcom about my broadband. I've had this sort of thing before so I just ended the call straight away. Properly annoying to get that so early!

Seriously, someone needs to sort out these scammers. I’m this close to just unplugging the phone altogether! Can’t they do anything to stop this nonsense? Getting so fed up!

Somebody pretending to be from Ofcom called my gran, trying to frighten her by saying her phone and internet would get cut off right away unless she followed their orders. It's awful how these fraudsters target the elderly like that. Honestly, why do authorities let them keep harassing folks like this?

Over the past few days, I've been getting loads of calls from various numbers, like 01877616340 yesterday, usually just about 9:30 in the morning. I looked them up and, as I thought, they’re dodgy people pretending to be from either BT or OFCOM, threatening me about my broadband. It’s rubbish, really. Good to see the government finally taking these scammers seriously, though. I’ve also had calls from 02490502237 and 01216035620 - all the same bunch of con artists.

Somebody said they were from Ofcom telling me I needed to urgently upgrade my internet, but it was obviously a scam. I’ve already reported it to the police so hopefully they catch whoever’s behind it.

I received a rather tedious automated call advising me to stay on the line as they were about to enhance my broadband service. However, I was pressed for time and jotted down the number before hanging up. Upon doing a bit of investigation, it seems I may have stumbled upon a scam.

That number 01863269656 really gave me scam vibes, so I just went ahead and blocked it without thinking twice.

I received four calls from this nuisance in the span of just two hours! It's clearly some automated system and it really ought to be put to an end.

Honestly, I don't understand why these annoying calls keep coming through when there's the Telephone Preference Service meant to stop them. It's like it does nothing at all, totally useless really. Nobody seems to be taking any proper action to fix this problem.
