This number has called me loads of times about my internet supposedly being hacked through the IP address. I told the person on the phone to prove they were legit by giving my BT account number or the email tied to it. When they couldn’t, I just hung up straight away. Since then, I’ve gotten way less polite with these calls! Definitely a scam, no doubt about it!

On the 2nd of Feb 2018, this number blew up my phone with three calls back to back within just a few minutes. Funny thing is, I’d already put it on my block list the day before because it kept ringing without anyone answering.

I received a call from a company I didn't recognise. They inquired about removing my name from their records, but when I requested this, their response was quite confrontational, asking, “Why Mrs [My Name]?” It felt quite hostile, really. I can only imagine how unsettling this must be for someone who might not be as confident. Seems like a dodgy operation to me.

When I requested that they take my name off their list, their reply was pretty hostile, they just kept asking "Why Mrs [My Name]" over and over again. Quite rude if you ask me.

Got a call from a woman with an Indian accent, saying she was from BT and warning me my broadband would be disconnected within a few hours. I told her that wasn’t acceptable, but honestly I was pretty sure it was a scam. I just told her straight, but kindly, to buzz off and ended the call.

Got a call from someone saying they were with BT OpenReach, kicked off with the typical "Good afternoon, how are you today, lady?". I nearly told him I’m still feeling rough with a bug, but instead asked what on earth BT OpenReach would want with me. He then went on to say my internet would get disconnected in a couple of hours. I just said "Alrighty then" and put the phone down. That number is now blocked and redirected on our phone.

So I called the number again and got a message saying the number doesn’t exist. It’s weird because the phone did actually ring the first time. How does that even happen? Seems like this should be stopped or something.

Got a call from a bloke with an English name but a proper Indian accent trying to chat in a fake posh English tone, asking if I had any issues with Sky. Told him no, and firmly told him not to ring this number anymore. They kept calling loads of times, real pain in the neck and way too pushy. Best thing is just to ignore and hang up on them straight away.

Had some bloke call me just after another one did, claimed he was with BT and needed to secure my internet from hackers or whatever. When I wasn’t convinced, he started threatening me, saying I was on the last warning and my internet would be cut off in two hours! Honestly, these tossers are the worst, absolute wankers who should bloody well find real work instead of messing about like this!

In the early hours of the 1st of February 2018, a woman with a foreign accent called me saying my internet was hacked. It was about 3am, really annoying. I told her I didn’t want anything to do with it and blocked the number using my TalkTalk service. When I asked if she worked for TalkTalk, she claimed that she did.

Got a ring from this number earlier. Some bloke called "Wayne" said he was with BT and told me someone was trying to hack into my IP. When I called him out on it, he just lost it and shouted some proper nasty words at me.

I picked up but there was no one on the other end. This also happened with a call from this number yesterday. Then, about 30 minutes later, I got another call from a different number, which it said was coming from the US. Honestly, these calls are really annoying. Is there any way to block them for good?

Got a call from this number, a guy with an Indian accent said he was from BT and told me someone else was using my internet. I said if that's true, I’ll just ring my internet provider myself, and he hung up pretty quickly. Definitely a SCAM, but odd that the caller ID showed a landline number.

Got a couple of calls today on my work phone, both from different numbers. They hung up as soon as they heard my business name. I'm guessing they might be trying to reach home phones instead? Proper annoying stuff!

Dodgy call alert! Some bloke rung my folks claiming he was representing BT. Dad told him they actually use Virgin. Then he started going on about BT renting lines to Virgin - total rubbish! He tried to freak them out, saying they had info on their PC which is impossible since they don’t even have one! I tried ringing back but no joy, the number wasn’t recognised. These scammers really need to find something better to do with their time!

Somebody rang claiming to be from BT, saying my internet had been hacked. I played along and asked if they could connect me with the hacker - sounded brilliant. The caller got really flustered and kept asking why I wanted that. I told him it must be some kind of magic since I don’t even use BT internet, and I’ve always fancied learning magic tricks. He just hung up and that was the last I heard from him.

Lately, I've been getting a few calls where no one says a word when I pick up. Normally, the caller ID is hidden. But this time, I dialled 1471 and it showed that the call actually came from the same number that rang me.

Got a call from abroad with a dodgy tech support scam, they were using a number that looked real but was obviously cloned or fake.

I picked up the phone and there was complete silence on the other end. These kind of calls happen quite a bit to me. Usually when I try checking the number with 1471, it just shows as private like someone mentioned before. However, this time the caller’s number actually showed up. Pretty sure it was just another dodgy scam call.

Got a call from a bloke with an Indian accent claiming he was from BT, saying something about my internet. I told him straight up, "You're a scammer." He kinda laughed and asked how I knew. I said, “These dodgy calls have been flooding in for ages, why not find a legit job and help folk instead of conning us?” He replied it’d been 12 years and he claimed he was helping people while making good money. I told him if there’s a God up there, they probably ain’t too pleased with what he’s up to. Then I hung up. He rang back straight away but I just ignored it.
