Reports on phone number 02450945893
8 yearsI heard some fake call centre sounds on the line, so I just cursed at whoever was on the other end before they could even say anything, and then they just cut the call.9 yearsWe've had loads of calls from this number at work, each time some person on the line insists our system is involved in tons of 'illegal activity connections'. When we joked that we’d only pay them with 'illegal porn', they just hung up on us.9 yearsGot calls loads from some bloke claiming to be BT or something, probably from India or Pakistan. They ring me a good three times every day. Honestly, don’t be polite and call them ladies, cause they’re just scammers trying to mess with you. They use this number 02450945893 or sometimes it’s just private/hidden. Proper annoying!9 yearsI picked up and there was complete silence for a bit, then suddenly a robotic voice said 'bye' and the call ended.9 yearsI've just had this EVENTVWR scam try to pull a fast one on me three separate occasions this week. It's some sort of new twist on an old con. If you haven't heard of it, do a quick search online for EVENTVWR scam and you'll see what I mean.EVENTVWR9 yearsI did the exact same thing. I even caught the call on recording. When I pressed him for his location, he told me "81 New Gate Street, London". Then I cheekily asked what the weather was like there. Proper dodgy, totally a scam!New Gate StreetLondonHahaha9 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Indian accent, sounded quite polite actually. He said there was some criminal stuff linked to my IP address and needed to chat to whoever was using the broadband. Then he asked if he could access my PC to 'fix' the problem. Total scam, don’t fall for it.9 yearsI'm getting these calls every single day too, just like others here. I've signed up with the TPS and reported them, but the calls just keep coming. The line goes quiet briefly while their autodialler picks some caller from India who tries to convince you they're from BT, saying there's an issue with your account. When you push back or ask questions, they just cut the call and move on to someone else. It's really worrying, especially for people who might be more vulnerable, since I've heard they use these calls to trick folks into giving away info for scams.Telephone Preference ServiceIndiaBT9 yearsGot a call from an Indian woman, loads of noise like a busy call centre in the background. She kept going on about some IP addresses on my computer that apparently weren’t recognised and needed fixing. I told her I was already dealing with BT about some tech problems, which she didn’t seem happy about. Then she asked for my IP address details. Total scam, just end the call straight away like I did - don’t waste your time with them.BT9 yearsNot a soul uttered a word; all that came through was a pre-recorded voice bidding farewell.9 yearsTotally a scam! Some woman with an Indian accent called saying my computer was infected and then put me through to a “BT” tech dude who wanted me to log in so he could access my stuff. It’s definitely not BT, so you can ring them yourself to check. Don’t get caught out by this trick. If anyone wants to find their address and maybe pay them a visit, just shout.BT9 yearsSomeone called pretending to be from BT, but I don’t even have their broadband. Pretty obvious it’s a scam. you'd think BT's phone department would do something to shut these people up!British TelecomBT9 yearsGot a call from an Indian woman claiming my BT broadband was hacked and someone was misusing my IP address. She kept going on about cybercrime and said they could fix it by upgrading my internet. I told her I’m not with BT and that I’m actually a cop so I’m well aware of cybercrime, plus she was trying to scam me. Right after that, she just hung up!BT9 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent who claimed my BT broadband had been compromised and someone was misusing my IP address. She kept going on about cybercrime and then tried to persuade me to upgrade my internet to avoid future hacks. I told her I wasn’t with BT and that I understood cybercrime pretty well since I work in the police force, and that what she was doing was actually a scam. Not surprising, the call ended abruptly after that!9 yearsI received a call from someone purporting to be from BT, insisting that others were using my phone line. They claimed they needed remote access to my computer for security updates. Their manner was extremely persistent and insistent. It felt very much like a scam to me!BT9 yearsThey say their internet got hacked but it’s just a bunch of rubbish, total scam!9 yearsReceived a call from someone purporting to be from BT, attempting to get into my bank details. Definitely a scam!BT9 yearsWas out at work when I got a call on my landline this morning. I’m really careful about who I share that number with, usually just mates and family.

They're a real pain!9 yearsMy home phone keeps getting the same persistent call, claiming there are issues with my BT internet.
