10 yearsSo I just got a call from this lady with a really strong foreign accent saying she was from TalkTalk. She asked if we shared a phone line and then warned us about hackers messing with our connection. She told me to check the router straight away. When I started questioning her, she suddenly just ended the call. Honestly, watch out for this kind of thing and just hang up!10 yearsGot a few calls from this same number lately, and either they just hang up straight away or say they’re from Talktalk. Really annoying!Talktalk10 yearsJust got a phone call from some woman with an accent claiming she was from TalkTalk. She asked if I shared the internet line with anyone else. When I asked why, she started rambling about hackers trying to break into my connection. Then she told me to check the router lights and see how many green ones were on. I said I wasn’t convinced she was legit and asked her for a number I could call back on. Unsurprisingly, she hung up straight away. Watch out for this kind of stuff!TalkTalk10 yearsJust got a call from some lady with a weird accent claiming to be from TalkTalk. She kept pestering me about whether I shared my phone line with anyone. When I asked what for, she started babbling about hackers trying to break into our internet. Then she told me to check the router and count the green lights. I told her I didn’t trust her and asked for a number to call back. Of course, she hung up straight away! Watch out, folks!TalkTalk10 yearsThis number has buzzed me loads saying there’s an issue with my internet. I usually say I’ll check with the TalkTalk engineer who’s right here with me or ask them to email me the details. Then, they just hang up right away!TalkTalk10 yearsWhenever I get calls claiming to be from TalkTalk’s tech support, I usually respond with something like, "You aren’t from TalkTalk at all, you lying thief trying to scam honest folks out of their hard-earned cash. You bring nothing but misery and deserve to be ashamed." Every now and then, I throw in, "You’re even worse than dog muck." Most times, the person on the other end ends up hanging up before I’m done!TalkTalk10 yearsLoads of people have been ringing me, pretending they’re from TalkTalk. I never trust them and just end the call straight away now.TalkTalk10 yearsCould someone kindly reveal who’s behind this number? It’s rather tiresome to keep receiving calls without so much as a message being left. If this continues, I’ll have no option but to take matters further and lodge a complaint. Cheers!10 yearsWasn’t interested so i just ended the call straight away. Didn’t bother asking anything.10 yearsToday, someone claimed they were calling from Talk Talk's tech support, though they couldn’t say exactly where that was. They went on about hackers messing with my router and threatened to disconnect my internet if I didn't activate it right away!Talk Talk10 yearssomebody rang saying they were from talk talk and said some random person was trying to hack my computer. they got their info all mixed up, so i told them that and ended the call.TalkTalk10 yearsGot a call from a lady speaking with an Indian accent, saying my TalkTalk router was hacked or something and loads of people were using my internet. She wanted me to switch my computer on and log into some accounts for her. I played along for a bit, but after a while I lost interest and told her to shove off...10 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were with talktalk and that my router was at risk of being hacked. They somehow got access to my computer and then asked me to pay to sort out the problem. When I asked questions, they just hung up. Weirdly, they called again the following day trying the exact same scam.TalkTalk10 yearsThis number rang me but they just cut off right after I picked up. I reckon it's one of those scams where they try to get into your PC to plant some nasty malware, then demand money to fix it. Don’t trust them even if they claim they’re from your legitimate phone or internet company, and never follow their instructions on your computer. These people are up to no good, stay safe!10 yearsGot a call from some bloke saying he was from BT, told me there was a problem with my internet. I told him I’m in Hull and only get internet from KCom, plus my number’s on the TPS list. That’s when he suddenly flipped out, started threatening to kill me, said he’d shoot me and called me his enemy, telling me to watch my back. I was shocked and quickly hung up! Really wanna find out which company he’s from and get him reported to the right people.BTHullKComTelephone Preference Service10 yearssome bloke rang me saying he was from bt. once i asked him about the tps he started swearing and calling me his enemy, threatening me with all sorts. he said i should be careful cos he supposedly had a gun with my name on it. the whole thing felt really off and creepy. wish there was a way to report this to the cops.BT10 yearsSomeone called me claiming there was a hacker from abroad messing with my Sky internet and said I had to log into my PC so he could sort it out. Told him I work in IT and know how to spot these things, then just ended the call. Seriously, don’t get caught out by these scams, they’re trying this nonsense all the time.Sky10 yearsThe call began with the guy making rude sounds that my disabled lad makes. When I questioned why he was doing that, he snapped back telling me to f### off with some awful language, shouting, and more weird noises before he just hung up on me.10 yearsI picked up the phone and the person on the other end started making fun of the sounds my disabled lad makes. When I called them out on it, they got really nasty and started swearing, telling me to "f your fing p" or something like that. I must've asked “what did you just say?” before realising it was no use, and then they just hung up on me.10 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming to be "Steve" off Virgin Media. Said hackers were sneaking into my internet and loading stuff onto my laptop. I said that was quite something, then he goes, "Why's that, Mam?" I told him I don't even have Virgin Media. Next thing I know, he just cuts the call. Honestly, how do these folks manage to sleep after all this?SteveVirgin Media10 yearsOver the past three days, I got six calls from a guy claiming to be from Sky's tech team. His English was terrible, which made me suspicious right away. He kept going on about issues with my computer, but I knew it was a scam straight off. On the final call, I just told him to get lost and slammed the phone down. Watch out, people!Sky10 yearsI keep getting calls from 02085925878 almost every day, like three or four times. It’s blocked on my phone now but I’m still curious who’s behind it? Anyone got a clue?10 yearsToday I got a call from someone named Alex claiming he's with Virgin, but he definitely isn’t! This is like the ninth call supposedly from Virgin in just one week, all from different numbers - this one was the newest. I’ve spoken with Alex today, Sammy Anderson a couple of times, Christine, Peter twice, and a few others who never even gave their names. Most of the numbers came up as withheld. I’ve reported every single number to Virgin directly.AlexVirginSammy AndersonPeter10 yearsThis number kept calling me loads so I finally picked up. A guy with a foreign accent said he was from Virgin Media's tech team and that our account had been hacked. He told me his name was Peter William and gave me a direct line number: 0203 239 1106. Virgin Media would never call like this!!!Virgin MediaPeter WilliamVIRGIN MEDIA10 yearsThis number, 02085925878, buzzes me a few times a day, sometimes three, sometimes four. I've blocked it on my phone, but they keep at it anyway. Luckily, BT Call Guardian steps in and cuts them off after just a couple of rings, so it’s not too annoying!BT10 yearsI've been getting loads of silent calls all day, which is really unsettling, especially when you're expecting an important call from the hospital or an elderly family member. It’s quite stressful waiting and then hearing nothing.10 yearsGot a call from Virgin earlier saying my internet had been hacked or some nonsense like that. They were pushing me to change some settings on my computer. I asked if they could tell me my Virgin account number first - guess what? They hung up straight away.Virgin10 yearsSome lady, sounded Indian I think, called me claiming she was from Sky. She said someone had been trying to hack into my computer. I asked if she really worked for Sky and she said yes. I told her I don’t even have Sky internet so she suddenly got really quiet. Then I asked if the number she was calling from was a UK one, and she confirmed it. I said perfect, now I’ll report you for scamming attempts. She just hung up on me… bit cheeky if you ask me.Sky10 yearsGot a call from a London number with a Pakistani accent claiming hackers were trying to break into my Sky internet. Feels a bit dodgy to me since Sky's actually based in Scotland. This kind of call should really be stopped before folks get scammed out of their cash.SkyLondonScotland10 yearsSome bloke rang me claiming to be from Sky, saying my computer was in danger of being hacked. When I told him he was just cold calling and I wasn't buying it, he quickly put the phone down on me.Sky10 yearsthis number has tried ringing me about four times over the last week. some bloke claimed he was with virgin media and said someone in malaysia was using my internet around 1am today! i just ended the call straight away before he could talk any further. i’ve attempted to block the number, guess i’ll wait and see if it works.Virgin MediaMalaysia10 yearsAfter I said goodbye pretty loudly, he called me back and started saying all sorts of awful, nasty stuff to me over the phone, like he was threatening me in the worst way.10 yearsGot a call from some scammers pretending to be Virgin Media, saying my internet was hacked and they needed cash. I just told them to get lost, proper annoying!Virgin Media10 yearsThis number has called me a few times claiming to be from Virgin Media, saying someone’s trying to hack my internet. I rang Virgin Media myself and they said it’s just a scam. Don’t be fooled by it!!!Virgin Media10 yearsThis number rang me claiming they were calling from Sky, saying someone was attempting to take out a loan linked to my address. They asked if there were any flashing lights on my router, to which I replied no. Next, they told me to switch it off and then turn it back on, but I said I couldn’t do that. Then they asked if my name was Ally, and when I said no, they just ended the call.SkyAlly10 yearsMy kids called, said I wasn’t there, and then this person started ranting about someone trying to break into my internet. Proper rude on the phone.10 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be Virgin Media, telling me my internet got hacked and asking for my bank card details. Straight away, I rang up Virgin Media to check if it was legit, and turns out it was just a scam. Total rubbish!Virgin Media10 yearsPicked up the call and they said they were from Virgin, telling me there was an issue with my internet and that someone overseas had been trying to hack into my computer. I just hung up straight away. They called me back right after and asked why I’d done that. I told them I reckoned it was a con, plus some mates of mine work at Virgin and Microsoft, so I’m pretty sure they wouldn't ever call me like that. Then the bloke started getting rude and ended the call on me. Definitely a dodgy scam!VirginMicrosoft10 yearsGot a right nasty person on the phone the other day, proper rude and telling me to “keep quiet” just because I asked if they were really from Virgin. When I asked why they needed me to open eventvwr on my computer, they just got more aggressive.
