Phone number ☎️ 01914176573 👆 is reported as a persistent and dangerous scam involving automated calls from a recorded female voice, often named Shirley, claiming the recipient’s internet or IP address has been compromised. These calls, frequently originating from spoofed geographic numbers, attempt to lure victims into pressing a number to connect with a supposed technician. The intent is to extract personal information or lead to premium-rate services. Many recipients recognise the calls as fraudulent, advising not to engage or press any buttons. Despite repeated reporting and warnings, such calls remain frequent and disruptive. Authorities are urged to take stronger action to prevent these scams, which particularly vex vulnerable or elderly individuals by exploiting fear about internet security and service interruption.

6 yearsIs there no method to stop these local numbers from ringing us up all the time? It's so annoying having to deal with them constantly. Wish there was some way to just block them all at once before they even get a chance to bother us.6 yearsSaid they were with BT but the number was a local one, not the usual type you'd expect, so definitely a fake.BT8 yearsIt’s defo a s#am. Got loads of silent calls over and over, then Shirley starts going on about what I could do. Hope they get what’s coming to them one day.Shirley8 yearsGot a call saying my IP address was being used all over the place, supposedly in loads of different countries. They told me to press 1 to fix it. Total scam, obviously.8 yearsGot a call from a guy and a woman pretending to be from BT. They kept going on about hackers trying to get into our internet. Felt off from the start. They told me to ring a different number later. Checked both numbers here and yeah, they look pretty suspicious.BT8 yearsLike what others have said, I've been getting these calls from some robot sounding woman called 'Shirley' with a Yank accent, warning me my internet's been hacked. They hit me up about twice a day now. The annoying part is they change the phone number each time using some dodgy software, so today it was a number from around Tyneside. Really wish the cops could track these lot down and put a stop to it!ShirleyTyneside8 yearsTotal scam, Shirley should just leave me alone.Shirley8 yearsGot a call with that same American accent saying my computer’s been hacked or something. Heard this one a few times already, so I just cut them off and blocked the number straight away.8 yearsGot a recorded message from someone called Shirley at BT saying my internet was under threat. It’s so frustrating that people just trying to get on with their day are being hassled by these kinds of calls. Why do the regulators let this keep going on? Would like some proper explanations.ShirleyBT8 yearsI got a call from someone who said she was Shirley from BT, claiming my internet ID was at risk. She said she could assign me a new one if I pressed 1. Curious, I did press 1 and got put through straight away to a bloke with an Asian accent. I told him I thought it was a scam since I’ve never even used BT before. He just hung up right away. So yeah, it was definitely a con. This happened at around 10:40 in the morning on 20/09/2018.ShirleyBT8 yearsJust got a call like that not long ago. The person on the other end had an American accent and claimed my internet was going to get cut off soon. It sounded fishy since it was a recorded message, so I ended the call right away. Then, I searched up the number online and found out it’s a known scam.8 yearsAvoid this! Got a recorded call claiming my IP was hacked “by multiple countries” and told to press 1. Don’t get involved with these scammers!8 yearsTotal rip off, definitely scammers.8 yearsGot the same rubbish about my internet being hacked, just like others have said here. They must have loads of numbers because every time I block one, they pop up again from somewhere else - like today, starting with 0191. Seriously, how do they even know I use a computer? My best trick is to let the call ring till my answerphone picks up. As soon as these lot hear my recorded voice, they hang up and don’t bother leaving any message.8 yearsI just got disconnected, pretty sure it was another online scam.8 yearsOh come on, "Internet been compromised"? Sounds like a total con to me! If you do what they say, you'll probably end up ringing some expensive premium rate line. And get this - it's just some automated voice, so you can't even have a proper go at them! What a joke.8 yearsI got a call warning me that my internet was going to be disconnected. I just ended the call and definitely didn't press any buttons. This sort of thing is terrible, these folks really need to be put to a stop.8 yearsThese folks are such scams, totally sickening.8 yearsJust got a call from a woman with an American accent saying my internet’s been hacked or something, sounded like a recording. Didn’t stick around to hit 1 for tech help, hung up straight away. Definitely a scam.8 yearsThey seriously need to be put an end to.8 yearsCheers for all the replies, I never picked up the phone anyway. Someone mentioned how they keep swapping numbers - it’s such a pain! What a load of rubbish.8 yearsGot a call from someone saying our internet was hacked and she's here to fix it. Bit weird since we had this same "Shirley" ring us yesterday too, but from two other numbers 01702295559. Obviously, we didn't fall for it. Just thought I'd warn others about this, so please spread the word!Shirley8 yearsSo frustrating! I've gotten this robotic voice on the line loads of times now. If anyone’s still answering, just tell them to jog on and hang up.8 yearsLooks like it could be one of those sketchy scams you gotta watch out for.8 yearsGot a call from some bloke saying my internet was going to get switched off. I didn't even bother pressing any buttons, just ended the call straight away. This kind of thing is proper rubbish, they really need to be put to a stop.8 yearssounds like one of those dodgy calls like all the others, could be risky too. I reckon they might try to get me onto a premium number, then coax me into giving info that could put my computer at risk.8 yearsI don’t know if they reckon I’m daft or what, but they keep saying my internet will be disconnected soon unless I get connected to their tech team. Of course, the number they want you to call is a premium line, so it’ll cost an arm and a leg. Most likely they’re just after my card details to nick my savings. I’ve had this happen loads of times but my internet’s still running, so I’m not falling for it.8 years01914176573 called me saying that the internet was going to be shut off or something like that! Total nonsense if you ask me.8 yearshad pretty much the same run in as everyone else here. seriously think this should be looked into properly and the folks behind it caught.8 yearsThis week they've rang me at least four times, each time warning my internet is at risk. Sometimes they say I’ve got just an hour to fix it, other times like today they said 24 to 48 hours. When I asked if they were with BT, they just hung up. Don’t answer calls from these lot, it’s dodgy for sure.BT8 yearsGot a robo call warning me my internet would be cut off in a couple of hours. They said to press 1 to chat with an engineer who’d fix it at no cost. I asked if they had my name and address since it felt dodgy, then they just ended the call on me!Submit Your Own Report (0191 417 6573)
