8 yearsThe caller just stayed quiet when I said hello, so I ended up hanging up straight away if they didn’t answer right back.8 yearsGot a call from some robo voice claiming my BT router was hacked and cut off unless I press 1. They said they were calling from California or something. I don’t even use BT, I’m with Virgin and my internet’s fine. Just hung up, total scam.CaliforniaBTVirgin8 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with BT, but the voice was clearly American. Total scam, watch out!BT8 yearsHad a dodgy call claiming to be from BT. When I questioned the bloke, he went and called me a complete idiot. Needless to say, I've blocked the number now.BT8 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be BT. Told them I already had a recorded call from another number, and they just ended the call straight away. Blocked them now, but I’m sure they’ll ring back from a different number soon.BT8 yearsEveryday a new number from these scammers, like they think we’ll pick up anything. Seriously, when will they realise that loads of us only pick up calls from numbers we know or have on our preferred list!!!8 yearsGot a dodgy call pretending to be BT, and after I called the idiot who rang me a “muppet” when I questioned them, I just blocked the number straight away.8 yearsGot a call from these lot but not a single word was said on the line. Pretty sure they’re just scammers. I seriously can’t figure out how they even managed to get hold of my number.8 yearsIt’s always some Asian person calling with a fake English name, isn’t it? Definitely scammers, no doubt. I’ve lost count - this has got to be the seventh time I’ve had one of these calls this week alone. Lucky I’m not home all day or I’d go mad! Maybe I should just unleash the Daleks on them or something!8 yearsGot this call from a woman speaking with a really clear American accent, claiming she was from BT. She kept saying my phone line was about to be disconnected and asked me to press 1 if I was a BT customer or 2 if not. Felt fishy straight away, so I just ended the call. Seems like another classic scam to me.BT8 yearsI received a rather peculiar phone call today that kicked off with an automated message. It then changed to a person on the line, although they were hardly the sort of human one might expect. Clearly a scammer from India, the chap claimed my BT phone line had been 'compromised' by some nefarious character over in California. He introduced himself with a thick accent, which was barely comprehensible, as 'Sean Wilson'. Perhaps he's got a few Irish roots somewhere in the mix, who knows? In any case, I promptly told 'Sean' to take a hike.IndiaCaliforniaSean WilsonSean8 yearsI got a call from a woman speaking with an American accent who said she was calling from BT. She warned that my phone line was going to be disconnected soon and told me to enter some numbers to stop it. It felt dodgy, so I just ended the call straight away.BT8 yearsSo, this number just rang me up and there was some robotic voice saying my BT Internet's been hacked or something and it'll be cut off soon, then asking me to wait for someone to help. I ended the call straight away and blocked it. Looks like yet another rip-off! Seriously, why doesn't the government put in place an official No Call Register where you can report these calls and they actually get fined? They have this in America, which is way bigger than the UK, so why can’t our government step up and do something useful to stop these annoying scammers??!USUK8 yearsGot two calls from this number today, total scammers! They said they were from Microsoft, but I’m not falling for that nonsense. Just ended the call straight away. These lot are trying to trick people who don’t realise what’s going on. Rang Virgin Media and they said there’s nothing they can do about it! If this number rings you, just ignore it and hang up immediately!MicrosoftVirgin Media8 yearsThey claimed to be Microsoft but it’s just one of those scams targeting anyone who’s not careful! Best thing to do is just hang up straight away!!!Microsoft8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be BT, saying there’s an issue with my phone line. The line was all crackly and really tough to understand. Definitely a scam, don’t fall for it!BT8 yearsGot a call from this number twice today. The person said they were from the pensions office and threatened to stop my pension. I told them I have power of attorney and my solicitor would deal with any issues. After that, they just hung up.Pension Ministry8 yearsGot a call from someone speaking really bad English, sounded like from the subcontinent, saying my BT router wasn’t working and to press 1 to speak to an “engineer.” This is the second time I’ve had this call within a week with the same story. I’m not even a BT customer, so it’s clearly a scam.BT8 yearsNo answer, just dead silence when I picked up. Proper annoying!8 yearsTotal scam, don’t trust these calls at all!8 yearsGot a call where they didn’t say anything except “goodbye”. Proper strange silence.8 yearsGot a voicemail that said it was from BT, warning my line would get disconnected if I didn’t hit 1. Pretty obvious it was a scam.BT8 yearsgot a call from this number a bit ago, completely silent on the other end. dont think i know anyone from the isle of wight, so probably just scammers trying their luck.Isle of WightSubmit Your Own Report (01983 754562)
