Phone number ☎️ 02032874596 👆 is reported as a persistent scam where callers, often with South Asian accents, impersonate BT staff claiming your internet has been hacked or your IP address is being misused internationally. They attempt to gain trust by providing fake reference numbers and local BT numbers, urging victims to grant remote access or reveal sensitive details. Many users have verified directly with BT that these calls are fraudulent. The callers become defensive when questioned and frequently hang up once challenged. Victims are advised not to engage, avoid following their instructions, and report any suspicious calls to BT and Action Fraud promptly. The scam remains active and convincing, often targeting those whose accounts appear compromised, so vigilance and verification through official channels are essential.
Reports on phone number 02032874596
8 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent saying she was Susam Matthews from BT's IT department, employee number 1062. She told me my internet was hacked and mentioned places like California and Holland. She asked me to verify my IP address, which I didn’t do. Then she wanted me to ring back on 02032893545. Absolutely a scam, don’t trust it!Susam MatthewsBTCaliforniaHolland8 yearsMuch like others, I found myself on the receiving end of a rather alarming phone call today (Monday, 9th April). The caller claimed that my internet had been compromised and insisted that it was urgent for me to follow their guidance on how to rectify the situation. The lady on the line alleged that she was representing BT. I requested that she email me to confirm her identity, but she flatly refused, stating that doing so would alert the hacker. When I pressed for a contact number, she provided 02032874596. I informed her that my son would ring her later when he came around. However, I should clarify that we did NOT proceed to make that call, as I took the initiative to Google the number and stumbled upon this site, which highlighted the scam.BTGoogle8 yearsJust after I’d been on the phone sorting out some broadband issues with BT, I got a call from 01582 642 519. Seemed a bit too perfect to just be chance - makes me wonder if someone inside leaked my info! I got a weird vibe from it so I told them I’d ring back later. That’s when they dropped the 0203 287 4596 number. I never bothered ringing it though, as this website flagged it as 'Dangerous'.BT8 yearsPretty much like the other posts here. Got caught up in some internet hacking thing out in California. Total BT scam, ended up feeling proper mugged.CaliforniaBT9 yearsSome bloke named Alex Mercer rang me up. He gave the same old story that others have mentioned here. Told me to ring back on a number where a Mark Rogers would supposedly answer. Got suspicious, so I rang BT and they confirmed it’s a total scam. Avoid!Alex MercerMark RogersBT9 yearsGot a call from Peter Deago with the same old tale. Anyone know how we can put an end to this?Peter Deago9 yearsI got a call from this number again, and like before, some bloke with an Indian accent said he was ringing from BT, trying to stop a hacker in California from using our internet. When I said it sounded dodgy, he got quite annoyed. I ended up hanging up and called back the number he gave me, 02032874596, to check if he was legit. Predictably, they vouched for him. Then I rang the official BT myself and was told it’s definitely a scam. The number that phoned me was 01952857247 - now it's added to my BT Call Protect block list!CaliforniaBT9 yearsWe've received calls from individuals claiming to be from BT thrice within just two days! The moment you mention reporting them, they simply cut the line. Take caution... it's clearly a scam!BT9 yearsThis morning, my mother received a call from this number, and she had an inkling right away that it wasn’t actually BT, despite their claims. She noted down the number, and I decided to do a bit of digging online, which led me to this discussion board. She wasted no time in informing BT about the incident, and after they reviewed all the particulars, it emerged that someone had somehow gained access and closed down her account. Mind you, she's the sole custodian of the account details, so it’s baffling who else could have done that without her knowledge. If you find yourself on the receiving end of a call from this number, I strongly urge you to contact legitimate BT without delay and have them examine your accounts for any irregularities. Better to be safe than sorry!BT9 yearsI can firmly say that this number reeks of a scam. They purport to be from BT, yet I came perilously close to losing a hefty sum of money. Thankfully, I managed to avoid the trap. Those behind this deceitful operation are nothing short of vile and reprehensible individuals. I sincerely wish that karma catches up with them and they find themselves behind bars for a lengthy stretch.9 yearsCAUTION Greetings! If anyone can shed light on the person behind this phone number, or if you have any info regarding its location, please reach out to us at [email protected]. This particular number has been linked to a fraudulent call, where the caller claims to be from a call centre, attempting to manipulate individuals into compromising their accounts. We have discerned that the call references an ID allegedly associated with California, USA. The background noise suggests a bustling call centre, with numerous voices attending to various customers. They employ tactics that lull you into a false sense of security, leading you to unwittingly share sensitive information-just like I did, resulting in funds being debited from my bank account. The caller’s accent resembles that of a Sri Lankan, and they’ve introduced themselves with English-sounding names like Roger, Mark, and Alan Walker. Stay vigilant!CaliforniaUSARogerMarkAlan Walker9 yearsExactly the same experience here! I was prompted for my number, then after a quick search online, I stumbled upon this discussion. Quite believable, I must say!9 yearsBeware of this phone number; it's a right dodgy one. Best to give it a miss altogether. Contrary to what the caller claims, they are certainly not from the BT Technical Department. It sounds like a scammer trying to get unauthorised access to your computer. Keep your wits about you!BT Technical Department9 yearsI had a rather similar experience not long ago. A woman with an Indian or Asian accent named Alina rang me, claiming her BT number was BT0814. She informed me that a certain Mr. Crawl from Mountain Ridge in California was allegedly using my IP Address, and she purported to be with BT Technical Support, supposedly located at Newgate Street, London. I mentioned that I was tied up at the moment and would return her call. Subsequently, I dialled BT directly on 150, and they confirmed that they hadn’t contacted me since the 17th of September and deemed the call quite likely a scam. I decided to ring Alina back as I had promised, using the number 02032874596. To my surprise, she claimed I had previously spoken with BT Billing, not their Technical Support. Alina was adamant that it wasn’t a scam, yet my instincts tell me otherwise. Just a word of caution, these individuals can be incredibly bothersome!AlinaCrawlMountain RidgeCaliforniaNewgate StreetLondonBTBT Billing9 yearsI received a rather unsettling phone call today purporting to be from BT's IT department. The caller claimed that someone in California was hijacking my IP address and urged me to look up my IP number online. When I inquired about his location, he stated he was calling from 81 Newgate Street in London and introduced himself as Harry Wilson, although his accent suggested otherwise. Curiously, he couldn’t provide any security credentials or even my BT reference number. I requested his contact number to verify, and when I called back, I was met by another gentleman who also had an Asian accent. He came across as quite defensive and utterly unhelpful. The whole experience left me feeling very much as if I had been targeted by a scam.BTCaliforniaNewgate StreetLondonHarry Wilson9 yearsGot a call supposedly from BT's tech team, sounded just like the others mentioned here. Some lady with a strong Asian accent was saying her name was Susan Matthews, giving out a BT ID - something like 1062 did 1471 or similar. She told me someone in California was using my IP address, which I knew was a load of rubbish. The phone number that popped up was 0018749658213.BTSusan MatthewsCalifornia9 yearsGot a call earlier at 10:40 from a bloke with an Asian accent saying he was with BT security. He claimed that someone else was using my IP address and asked me to install TeamViewer on my computer. He even had a fake BT website ready for the download. Turns out this number, 01872 749862, is involved too. I've reported it straight to BT. Definitely a scam.BT9 yearsI was in a bit of a pickle earlier - a chap rang me claiming to be from BT, insisting that my IP was supposedly being utilised in California. They started probing about my Amazon account and then suggested I log into my bank. That’s when the alarm bells started ringing for me. I promptly informed him that I found this all rather suspect, and he casually replied that he’d provide me with the genuine BT contact number. When I dialled it, guess what? No answer! At that point, I was convinced something was amiss, so I swiftly hung up. Just a friendly warning to everyone - tread carefully! My wife didn’t seem to go through the necessary security checks, like providing our BT reference number, which had me quite worried.BTCaliforniaAmazon9 yearsJust got a ring from someone named Jenny Wilson claiming to be from BT Broadband IT support. She said, much like others have mentioned, that my IP address is being used by someone else. I wrote down what she told me and then passed it on to Action Fraud, which is the official police body handling these sorts of scams. Honestly, the easiest way to deal with this is to report it straight online. She gave me a number, 020 3287 4596, and a BT ID which was 1044.Jenny WilsonBT Broadband ITAction Fraud9 yearsI received a call from a number purporting to be British Telecom, stating that my IP address had allegedly been compromised by another user residing in Mountain Ridge, California, or some similar location. They provided an IP address to verify, which intriguingly matched their claims. However, upon closer examination, the IP address they provided didn't correspond with mine at all. It's clear that this is not a legitimate BT operation. If they were genuine, they'd effortlessly be able to verify my name along with my BT account details. I suggest posing that question to them - I guarantee they won't know how to respond!British TelecomMountain RidgeCalifornia9 yearsGot a call from some man with a strong Asian accent telling me my computer was at risk of being hacked from somewhere in California. When I asked for a number, he gave me one which I rang back from another phone. An Asian person answered saying "BT". They had no clue about my name or where I live - clearly, just another dodgy scam.CaliforniaBT9 yearsI just had a call from this number purporting to be from the BT Technical support team. They were asking me to access my internet device, saying that my IP address had been compromised.BT9 yearsI received a call from someone purporting to be from BT, who introduced herself as Tracy Brown. However, it was quite obvious she had a pronounced Indian accent. A classic case of a scam if you ask me! 😏BTTracy Brown9 yearsPurporting to be from BT, this is a con designed to trick you into installing remote access software like TeamViewer, ultimately aiming to infiltrate your accounts. Be cautious!BT9 yearsJust got a call from someone claiming to be from BT's IT team, saying there was an issue with our IP address being used out of California last night. The caller wanted me to install some free software on my PC. She gave her name as Susan Matthews and told me to call her back on 020 3287 4596. I hung up and tried that number but it was busy. Following advice from B Jacobson, I dialled 1471 and got a different number, 01726 395628, which I might report too. Feels like a total scam, so I won’t be engaging with them any further.BTCaliforniaSusan MatthewsB Jacobson9 yearsSo this bloke called me with a really thick Indian accent, claiming his name was Mark Rogers. He told me he was ringing from BT, saying someone was using my internet address all the way out in California. Said he was with BT support or something. When I asked him how I could verify he was legit, he gave me some BT reference number and this phone number to call back. I ended up ringing BT myself, and they told me that the reference number meant nothing and that it was absolutely a scam.Mark RogersBTCalifornia9 yearsSome bloke called me with a really strong Indian accent, claiming his name was "Mark Rogers". He said he was ringing from BT and that someone was using my internet at an address in California. He kept saying he was part of BT support. I asked him how I could trust he was legit, and he gave me a "BT reference number" along with the phone number. So I rang BT myself, and they told me the reference number meant nothing and it was a total scam. Definitely dodgy.Mark RogersBTCalifornia9 yearsSomeone said they were from BT, so I rang BT to check and they told me it was a scam. I don't get why no action is taken to catch or deal with the people behind it?BT9 yearsReceived a call from someone claiming to be from the BT technical team, who introduced himself as Thomas and provided me with this number. To be honest, I’m a bit sceptical and don’t buy a word of what he said.BTThomas9 yearsClaimed to be representatives from BT. I fell for it and got duped. Thankfully, I didn’t lose any cash, but I can’t help but feel like a complete fool for being swindled like that.BT9 yearsClaims to be from BT's technical support, but I'm quite sceptical about it.BT9 yearsClaims to be from BT.BTSubmit Your Own Report (020 3287 4596)
