02032874596 Summary (Read all comments)

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.

Got 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!

Much 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.

Just 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'.

I 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!

This 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!

I 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.

CAUTION 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!

Beware 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!

I 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!

I 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.

Got 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.

Got 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.

I 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.

Just 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.

I 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!

Got 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.

Just 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.

So 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.

Some 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.
