8 yearsThe number didn’t show up on BT Call Guardian, so my guess is it’s either a scammer or some call centre. I’ve gone ahead and blocked it.BT CallGuardian8 yearsLike a few others have said, I got a call from a bloke with an Indian accent saying he was from BT OpenReach. He told me there was some dodgy stuff going on from 17 IP addresses linked to my home router. I told him that couldn’t be right because my router was off while I was away on holiday, and then I just ended the call.BT OpenReach8 yearsYeah, it was one of those BT scam calls.

Looks like someone’s stolen this business’s number. I’m definitely reporting it to the ICO.BTGoogleWiganICO8 yearsThey’ve called me half a dozen times today. The first couple of calls were “from BT,” saying there was an issue with my computer. They asked if I could bring the computer to them and kept waiting on the line. I just put the phone down on mute while they kept saying “hello, hello” over and over. It took nearly eight minutes before he figured out I wasn’t going to answer again and then they finally hung up. My husband did the same when they called the second time. Since then, the phone has rung another four times...BT8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be my internet provider saying there was some dodgy activity coming from my router/IP.
