Phone number ☎️ 02678421670 👆 is reported as a persistent scam involving callers impersonating BT Openreach staff. They claim issues with broadband routers, urging recipients to access websites or download software, often requesting remote computer access. Callers frequently have strong accents and provide unclear information, attempting to pressure victims into making changes that could compromise security. Many victims recognise the calls as fraudulent, refuse to engage, and advise hanging up immediately. The calls are unsolicited, sometimes early in the morning, and use deception, including threats of permanent loss of broadband. Authorities and telecom providers recommend not sharing any personal or computer details and warn vulnerable individuals to be particularly cautious. This number is associated with ongoing, widely reported nuisance calls and is best avoided.

8 yearsGot a call from 02678421670 this morning. The caller ID showed “International” which immediately rang alarm bells for me - usually it means a dodgy call. We hardly ever get legit calls from abroad, so I answered but hung up right away. If you use a call logger, it’s a great tool to spot these spam calls from the genuine ones. For anyone without one, I’d definitely recommend getting one to keep your privacy and security intact. Oh, and keep an eye out for calls from 02170421670 too!International8 yearsOh for sure, total scammers! I even asked if she could smell anything coming through the landline, obviously complete rubbish!!8 yearsThis number won’t stop ringing me, claiming to be BT Openreach saying there’s something wrong with my router. The person on the other end was hard to understand, spoke with a really thick accent. I knew pretty quick it was a scam and told them to get lost, but they keep calling me at all times of the day. Such calls really ought to be blocked.BT Openreach8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with BT Openreach saying my internet company had asked them to change my router’s settings to avoid losing broadband. When I asked who my internet provider was, he couldn’t say, so I just pretended not to know what he was talking about. Then he tried to get me to visit a website and download a file. Luckily I know my way around computers, so I didn’t fall for it.BT Openreach8 yearsGot a call from Openreach today - total scam. Please, don’t bother answering if it shows their number. Just block them!8 yearsThree calls from the exact same scammer. Definitely a repeat trick.8 yearsGot a call from some guy saying he was with BT and needed to fix my internet issues. He told me to install Teamviewer, which I stupidly went ahead and did. Then I figured out it’s a remote access tool, so I closed everything straight away. After ringing BT, they confirmed that it was a total SCAM!!BTTeamviewer8 yearsGot a call just before 8am this morning - who even does that on a Saturday?! They said they were from BT Openreach, but since I’m not a BT customer, I told them straight up they were fibbing and hung up. This kind of thing really makes me worry for older people or anyone more trusting, it’s a proper scam waiting to happen. Our MPs should seriously do something about this - energy bills are awful but this kind of fraud could be even more damaging.BT OpenreachBT8 yearsThey just mumbled something I couldn't catch and then cut the call off.8 yearsLike a lot of others here, someone rang me pretending to be from BT Openreach saying there was an issue with my router. When I told him it was nonsense and I didn’t have any problems, he got really annoyed. Seriously, don’t stay on the call for a second longer - just end it straight away.BT Openreach8 yearsI picked up and the call just ended straight away? What was that about?8 yearsSomebody rang saying they were from BTOpenreach, but their accent was really thick, so it was tricky to catch everything. They claimed there was some work going on nearby and said I had to update a code on my internet line. They asked me to switch on my PC and follow their lead. When I said no and refused to turn on the computer, they threatened I’d lose my internet “forever.” Turns out it wasn’t true at all - my broadband provider said it was just a scam. Definitely not a BT call!8 yearsDefinitely wasn’t BT ringing me, so it’s gotta be some dodgy scam.BT8 yearsOpenreach called up saying they needed to switch my router channel. I played the fool for a while and kept them talking. Quite a change from the usual calls!Openreach8 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be with BT Openreach about a DNS issue. But when I told them to send me something in writing, they just hung up on me!BT OpenreachSubmit Your Own Report (026 7842 1670)
