8 yearsI received a dodgy call from someone claiming to be from BT, stating that my line had been hacked. Please heed my warning and steer clear of this con!BT9 yearsThis lot claiming to be from BT usually ring up and say nothing, then vanish, and they keep switching up their phone numbers too. The numbers they show aren’t actually real UK area codes, they just look similar to trick folks into picking up. Definitely some dodgy business going on there.BT FraudstersUK9 yearsThis morning, around 10:18am on the 8th of September, I got a call from 02130979980. Someone with a thick Indian accent claimed to be from BT and told me there was an issue with my BT Openreach broadband, saying my service was about to be disconnected. Thing is, I haven't used BT in ages, so I told them that straight away and they just cut the call. I've also had those Microsoft support scams before, but since I know a bit about tech, I managed to spot the trick. It really worries me how some people could fall for these scams though - these con artists are truly awful.BTMicrosoft9 yearsSo, they rang me up once and I just ended the call. Then, a few hours later, they phoned again, and I told them I’m on a do not call register before hanging up. Not long after, they rang me right back wanting an explanation, so I cut them off again. They returned the call straight away, but this time I let it go to voicemail. Honestly, feels like they’re hassling me.9 yearsThis morning on the 8th of September at about 10.18am I got a call from 02130979980. The person on the line had a strong Indian accent and claimed to be from BT, saying there was an issue with my BT Openreach broadband and that my service would be disconnected. I told them I haven’t used BT in ages, probably years, and they just hung up straight away. I’ve also had calls from the Microsoft support scam before, but being a bit tech savvy I spotted it quickly. It really worries me how many vulnerable people out there might fall for this rubbish. These scammers are awful.BTMicrosoft9 yearsI’ve had this number 02130978954 blocked for a few days already, but it seems like they’re switching to different numbers. Looks like they’ve got a whole series they’re cycling through for this scam.9 yearsThis number rang me around 9.15 am today. I didn’t pick up but decided to look it up here to see what others said. After reading the comments, I’ve gone ahead and blocked it.9 yearsGot a call from this number two times. The first was just dead silence, then some robot voice said something like goodbye. I rang back about quarter of an hour later but let it go to my answerphone and it just hung up. Bit weird really.9 yearsGot a call from a guy claiming to be with BT, speaking with an Asian accent. He said I’d somehow "downloaded a dodgy update via my router causing server issues and blocking stuff." I played along for a bit to suss out what the scam was, but after I mentioned I’d inform our IT team, he just dropped the call. Still don’t quite get what he was after, but sounds like it could’ve been risky.BT9 yearsI got a call from an Asian guy claiming to be from BT, going on about overseas IP addresses and the like. When I questioned a few things he said, which didn’t quite add up, he just ended the call. He never managed to persuade me of anything and clearly didn’t know what he was talking about. My guess is he wanted me to download some kind of software ‘to shield me’ from foreign IPs, which sounds dodgy and definitely isn’t BT.BT9 yearsEvery day, I keep getting calls from someone named Red Diesel, it's driving me mad. I've just stopped picking up my landline altogether because of it. Can't take it anymore.Red Diesel9 yearsI got a call from this number and it was a total scam. They kept trying to get me to use my computer but didn’t even know who my phone company was when I asked them. They tried to make me believe there was an issue with my connection, but I told them it was nonsense and told them to leave me alone.9 yearsI reckon this might be a scam call pretending to be from BT Openreach. The caller spoke with a strong Asian accent and gave a name that didn’t sound genuine. They claimed to be calling from BT's head office, but when I asked for proof, the line just cut off. Having dealt with Openreach myself several times, I’m pretty sure BT don’t ring out of the blue about service problems. Just today, I got a scheduled follow-up call about a technical issue they’ve been tracking for about a year and a half.BT OpenreachBTOpenreach9 yearsGot a call at work from some dodgy person trying to get me to put software on my computer. Honestly, seemed like a total scam and pretty risky to go along with.9 yearsGot a call earlier from a guy claiming to be with Openreach, says there’s some dodgy activity on my internet. He said his name was Alex Johnson but spoke with a strong Asian accent. I just ended the call straight away. When I checked 1471, the number was 0213 0979980. We have ex-directory numbers, so I don’t understand how they even got hold of mine. Seriously, BT needs to sort out this mess. It makes me wonder if BT is somehow benefiting from these calls or selling access to their landline numbers.BT OpenreachAlex JohnsonBT9 yearsIn just two days I got three calls. The first one was some bloke claiming he was from BT and saying there was an issue with my internet - but I'm actually with Virgin Media! The next two calls were weird, no one spoke but I could hear a lady's voice at the end saying goodbye. Very strange.BTVirgin Media9 yearsGot a call earlier, and the bloke sounded proper rude once I said I wasn’t with BT. Not the friendliest person, that’s for sure.BT9 yearsthe idiots rang me once more, so I decided to throw some tricky questions their way - they just ended the call straightaway ;) looks like there’s a bunch of folks behind this scam.9 yearsGot a call like this before, seemed dodgy. Some bloke tried getting me to let him use my computer to set up who knows what. I just ended it straight away!Submit Your Own Report (021 3097 9980)
