7 yearsGot a call just now, and the moment I said I wasn’t sure about them or what they wanted, they just ended the call. Totally sounded like a SCAM!7 yearsAbsolutely dreadful scammer, beware!7 yearsGot a call that looked like BT but it was just some scammers from India who keep pestering UK numbers. They said they were tech support from BT and claimed my computer and BT router had viruses. They pointed to some normal event viewer logs to "show" infections, which was rubbish. It's just a trick to rip you off, nick your bank info, and mess up your PC. Stay clear of these fraudsters!IndiaUKBT7 yearstried calling back 1471 but no number shown, just the area code, not sure what to do now.7 yearsEveryday at 09, I get calls from a blocked number. I checked it out here but no one replies or tells you anything. I always look up the number on this site to see what's going on.7 yearsThe phone rang, I picked up and then suddenly they hung up.7 yearsThere was a pause, then an automated voice just said bye. Definitely a scam call, I reckon. If you call them back, curious about some Urgent automated message you think you missed, they might hit you with a huge bill. Best to just ignore and not return the call.7 yearsSaw I missed a call from this number when I got back this morning. Had to look it up straight away and sure enough, it turned out to be a scam. Really handy website, cheers!7 yearsGot a call from this number today. The person, who had an accent that sounded maybe Indian, said they were with Open Reach and claimed they’d detected a fault with our broadband speed. They mentioned it was unusually slow and asked me to check the lights on our router and tell them the colours. We were suspicious it might be a scam, but didn’t want to be rude in case they were legit. So, we played along carefully. Then they asked me to enter a code on my laptop that they’d give me, but I told them I couldn’t right now because we needed to head out - which wasn’t true. We know better than to give strangers remote access to our computer. The caller suddenly fell silent, though I could tell they were still there. I expressed that I was confused by the sudden quiet, and then I promptly hung up.Open Reach7 yearsAnswered the phone but nobody spoke on the other end.8 yearsI decided not to answer because we got a quiet call just a short while before. After that, I looked up the number here and saw it was what I thought.8 yearsthere was definitely background noise and a pause, so i reckon it was someone's call centre. I just said hi, they replied hi, then we went back and forth with hellos a few times before they just ended the call. felt a bit dodgy tbh, and this site cleared up my suspicions.8 yearsGot a robocall from TalkTalk sayin' my internet was going off, then was told to press 4 or 2 to sort it. Didn't bother, just ended the call straight away.TalkTalk8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from BT Openzone, threatening to cut off my broadband. When I called them out for being dodgy, they swore at me and hung up abruptly. The voice sounded Indian and the line was really crackly. Total scam, avoid at all costs!BT Open Zone8 yearsGot a few calls where no one says anything, then just suddenly ends with a "Goodbye". Pretty sure it’s some scam trick or something. Been happening quite a bit recently.8 yearsThey ring my phone then just cut off without saying anything.8 yearsGot a call from an unknown number that kept ringing. When I finally answered, there was no one there and then a voice said “goodbye.” Seemed like some kind of automated message or recording. Very weird.8 yearsI've had this number ring me up a few times, both early and late in the day, and every time there's silence, just awkward long pauses with no one saying a word.Submit Your Own Report (021 5659 8741)
