6 yearsi noticed this number ringing twice and then they just cut off. did some digging and found out that numbers starting with 0216 are often fake or not even assigned, probably used to mask who they really are. i had a feeling something was off cause the number seemed kinda weird. so i decided to block it.9 yearsThis guy claimed to be with the national crime agency, but once I told him to write to me instead, he started shouting and threatening to lock me up before just dropping the call. He had a bit of a South African accent, I think.National Crime Agency9 yearsGot a call from this number claiming to be from BT internet. I told them we only have a BT line, nothing else. Then I hit my call blocker and hung up straight away.9 yearsThis number called me claiming to be from BT and told me that at 3 and 4 in the morning, they’d picked up some interference on my computer from someone attempting to steal my identity. I told them if they want to waste their time trying to find money I don’t have, that’s their issue. When he asked if I was worried about someone trying to get my ID, I just said, ‘Get a life, no I’m not bothered, got better things to deal with.’ Then he just ended the call.BT9 yearsGot a call on our work phone from a woman with a strong foreign accent, she struggled with English and said she was from TalkTalk. She warned our internet would be cut off in 30 minutes. I told her she’d have to speak to our IT manager, but she wasn’t interested. Then she tried to get me to fiddle with my computer, which felt suspicious, so I ended the call. She kept ringing back three times, each time blocking her number. Definitely a scam, don’t pick up!TalkTalk9 yearsGot a call from a guy who sounded Asian, said his name was Brendan and claimed he was from BT. Told me my internet would cut off in 20 days if I didn't sort it out. He wanted me to turn on my computer but when I refused and said I thought it was a scam, he flipped out and started calling me all sorts of names, even called me the son of Lucifer or something crazy. Then he just hung up and dropped the call. Proper dodgy behaviour.BrendanBTLucifer9 yearsProbably one of those dodgy scam calls trying to blag info.9 yearsI’ve been getting calls from this number as well as 0216 2704 830 - definitely the same lot.9 yearsI got called about five times all through the day by someone who sounded Asian, saying there was an issue with my BT broadband that would mean it’d be cut off for 10 days. They kept asking if I could get on my computer and so on. Thing is, I’m not even a BT client! They definitely wouldn’t take no for an answer. Feels like it could be a real problem for folks who aren’t comfortable with tech or aren’t too good with computers.BT9 yearsI've been getting calls today from someone claiming to be Peter Thomson, said to be from BT IT at 81 Newgate Street, London. Oddly enough, that's the exact address used by those Microsoft tech support scammers too. It's the same people behind the 02162 704830 number, I'm pretty sure. Within just two hours, I’ve gotten three calls from them, all with an Asian accent, trying to get remote access to my computer. I’ve reported it to the chairperson of the Scottish Government’s nuisance calls panel - at least it seems like some government folks are trying to tackle this massive issue.Peter ThomsonNewgate StreetLondonBTMicrosoftScottish Government9 yearsHad about six calls from these Pakistani or Indian fellas over the past two weeks, really annoying them.IndiaPakistan9 yearsI was chatting with this guy, but when I opened Google Chrome, he just hung up. Feels a bit dodgy, like maybe it’s some kind of scam?Google9 yearsSo this guy I was talking to suddenly hung up as soon as I opened Google Chrome, which made me think it might be some kinda scam. Not sure what to make of it honestly.Google9 yearsi got a call supposedly from bt about my internet. I told the bloke that he was actually the fourth caller in just two days all saying the same thing but from different phone numbers. i said i didn’t trust any of them at all and it sounds like some kind of big scam going around.BT9 yearsthis number just rang me and some bloke with a weird accent said he was from bt. he kept going on about how my internet had been cut off for like 10 days ‘cause of viruses on my pc or something. then he wanted me to give him control of my computer to fix it. i told him to get lost and hung up straight away. tried to check the number and nothing came up. total scam, don’t fall for it!BTSubmit Your Own Report (021 6270 4865)
