Reports on phone number 02086388649
7 yearsI got a call from 02086388649, and this woman with an Indian accent claimed she was from BT saying my internet had been hacked. She told me a tech was already fixing it but needed me to connect to my PC. I was a bit suspicious then she put me through to a guy called Jordan Griffiths, saying he was a senior BT worker, giving his BT ID as 9163649 and using that same number. Turns out it's definitely a scam trying to get into your computer.BTJordan Griffiths7 yearsI had a similar thing happen to me like others have said here. They told me my router and phone line had been compromised weeks ago but I’d only just set it up the day before! When they asked about my bank apps, I immediately ended the call. No idea how they got my number since it was barely active for a day.7 yearsThis number just rang me up pretending to be BT, saying some dodgy devices were using my broadband all over the country. I checked with my actual provider and they confirmed it was a scam. If he rings again like he threatened, I’m definitely not going to be polite - I reckon I’ll be swearing before I get through the first sentence.BT7 yearsHad the same sort of thing happen, said he was from BT. Got really cheeky and told me to "shut my gob" when I called him out on it.BT7 years0208 6388649 - I had a similar run-in as others here. When I asked the woman to confirm she was really from BT, she just kept chatting over me and told me to get verification info from my device. I asked for a callback number since the account wasn’t mine, and she gave me this number. Decided to check if it was a scam and glad I did. They keep ringing me non-stop, might just have to disconnect my phone.BT7 yearsI got a lot of calls from 02086388649, very pushy lot. They claimed to be BT techs saying my internet was at risk but something felt off. The line kept dropping and they called back again and again. Definite scam, trying to get access to my phone where I’ve got my banking apps. They sound pretty legit at first till they start asking about your bank stuff. Lucky I didn’t fall for it. Really grateful for this website, I'll be letting BT know since they rang my unlisted landline.BT7 yearsJust like it said on 13/06/2019 - lucky I didn’t go through with it, and after reading all this, I’m really glad I held back.7 yearsThis bloke keeps ringing me up claiming he's from TalkTalk and that he wants to remove 27 people from my internet account. I told him he’s talking nonsense, but then he asked for my bank details! I warned him I’d report the number and told him to stop calling, yet he just won’t stop ringing me back.TalkTalk7 yearsMe and my missus have been hassled by these lot. They pull all sorts of dodgy moves you hear about with scams. They’ll try every trick imaginable to rope you in, then rip you off.7 yearsI kept getting calls all day from 02086388649. The bloke on the phone was saying my internet had 22 devices connected to it or something, and he threatened that BT would cut my service off. Proper annoying!BT7 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent claiming she was ringing from BT, saying someone else was using my internet connection. I asked her where she was calling from and she gave me this number and said they were located at 81 Newgate Street, London, which I know is a real BT address. I told her I needed to double-check before doing anything, then ended the call. After that, I looked over my internet security and didn’t see any issues at all.BTNewgate StreetLondon7 yearsI had a call like that too, saying my BT service would be cut off unless I set up some kind of protection. I didn't trust it and just hung up straight away. Definitely a scam, no doubt about it.7 yearsHad a call from someone claiming to be Steven Harker from BT, telling me my internet line was being hacked. He didn’t ask for any passwords or banking info but said I had to go to the bank and move all my money between accounts (as if!). He wanted me to tell him as soon as it was done and said he’d stay on the phone, telling me not to mention anything to the bank since someone inside might be dodgy. He sounded really smooth and official. If you get anything like this, just hang up straight away!Steven HarkerBT7 yearsSo my mum first got a call from a lady who had an Asian accent, and then she was handed over to a bloke called Alex Davies, who said he was calling for BT. He told her there were hackers based in India and Nigeria causing trouble. He kept pushing to fix this "issue," calling again a couple of times and insisting that I should give them a ring when I got home, since my mum wasn’t sure how to handle it.Alex DaviesBTIndiaNigeria7 yearsOn 16th April 2019, I got a call from someone claiming to be David Watson, supposedly from BT, speaking with a strong South Asian accent. The number showing was 02086388649. He told me my computer had been compromised and that to stop any more hacking, I had to log in and connect as soon as the BT logo showed up on my screen. I felt something wasn’t right and asked to speak to the manager, who he said was named Stephen. I ended up hanging up and asked them to call me back, but never got a return call.David WatsonStephen7 yearsMy dad got a call from someone claiming to be from "bt" saying they needed to put malware protection on his PC, then tried to get him to login to his bank account online. Definitely a scam, don’t fall for it!7 yearsGot a dodgy call from someone saying they were with BT, wanted me to confirm my account info over the phone. Smelt like a phishing scam or some malware trick. Be careful!BTSubmit Your Own Report (020 8638 8649)
