They claimed someone was attempting to buy £400 worth of gift cards with my account and said it must have been hacked.

The caller claimed to be Jack Hunter from BT’s Internet Security Team, but he spoke with a strong Indian accent. He kept insisting the call was about my broadband, even though I’m not with BT. When he asked me to turn on my computer, I made it clear I was ending the call.Jack HunterBTInternet Security Team3 yearsThis morning I got a call from an unfamiliar number. I answered but stayed silent, hoping the person on the other end would say something. They didn’t. So, I just left the phone beside me on the couch for about 15 minutes. Still, no reaction from the caller. Eventually, I ended the call. This is how I usually deal with calls from numbers I don’t know - I pick up and say nothing, keeping the line open to rack up the call cost for whoever’s calling. The longer I let it run, the more it costs them, unless they decide to hang up first.3 yearsPurporting to be from BT Open Reach, yet they pose rather peculiar inquiries.3 yearsGot a call on my home phone from 02082498731. The woman claimed to be from my internet company (which definitely isn’t Virgin). She said someone was trying to change my IP address location and wanted to guide me through fixing it on my phone. I told her she’d need to email me first to confirm who she was, since my provider already has my email. She sounded a bit deflated but said okay. After hanging up, I looked the number up here. Not holding my breath for any email from them now.Virgin3 yearsThis number just rang my landline, which I hardly ever pick up because I don't really use it for calls. Since I didn’t recognise the number, I decided not to answer it.Submit Your Own Report (020 8249 8731)
