Yes, I have  just had a phone call from a guy who called himself David. He assured me he was from BT and my computer had a real problem, it had been compromised. I said I had no problem and when he insisted I had and asked him what he was going to do about it, he said fix it and I said how can you fix a problem I hadn't got. I bade him good day and hung up. I am sure he was a scammer.

I’ve just had a phone call from this number, a guy called John Rich, told me that unauthorised people using my internet wi5hout me knowing about. I therefore needed to spark up the computer and connect to the internet, if I didn’t do this then I risked the internet being turned of and it would insure a fee of £2500.  to reconnect. I said that I thought he was a fraudulent call, I wouldn’t be doing as asked without first confirming his identity, place of work and phone number, all of which he gave me, I said I’d phone back. John Rich is still waiting for his call back 😂

Asian woman claimed my Router is compromised and they need access to rectify it.  I am not a BT Customer and do not have BT Router.  This is a SCAM.  Do not respond !!!

Called 6/Jun/2018 - kept on calling after I hung up so eventually talked to Asian/Indian sounding guy who insisted that my BT internet service would fail within 24 hours if I did not do what he said. He was technically savvy and pointed me to look at my Windows Event Viewer and attempted to frighten me into believing this was proof I had been hacked. Got angry when I cut the conversation and phoned back insisting he was only trying to help

I got a call today (11-June-2018) from an Asian sounding woman claiming that she worked for BT and that my BT connection was not secure and wanted me to log into one of my devices to make my connection secure as apparently there were around 14 individuals trying to access my network.  I had a feeling this was fake and kept interrupting her by asking her questions such as if this was genuine why had BT not contacted me in writing to advise me that this issue was happening. On several occasions she claimed to could prove that she was actually from BT and all I needed to do was give her access....well I did not. I asked her to give me her number : 00441793596931 so that I could verify it. I checked the number out and learned that it was a scam. Glad I had not given her any details as she was definitely using scare tactics to frighten me. Please be careful and don’t give anyone who calls like this any info as it is a scam!

Just received a call from an Asian gentleman called Alex Carter claiming to be from BT and saying I have a problem with my IP/internet connection. Told him I am not with BT as they are useless but he insisted that all other providers use BT and it was up to them to sort out and stop all these other people using my internet I just need to start up my computer and allow their technician access to fix! Told him I was too busy and asked him for a telephone number for me to call back when convenient to me.  He eventually gave me a number to call and his name as Alex Carter and job Id as BT1912 but only when I said if he couldn’t give me this information he was clearly a scammer! These people are unbelievable & very convincing with their high pressure patter, needless to say I will not be calling back ...

Just had a call from someone claiming to be from BT in London (!!).  She told me this number when I insisted. She claimed to be making us a fantastic offer of a lower bill per month if I paid a one-off amount now. She was persistent. It's clearly a scam.

Just had an Asian David White on the phone from BT Tec support to say my internet was corrupt.  I told him I didn't have BT anything. He said he knows and it's cause other providers (listed other company's) use the same lines. I then went into 20 questions or his full name, telephone number (he had to Google this lol), his badge/ID number, where he's based, his manager's name (which he couldn't provide or his supervisor) they usually give up and hang up but he didn't. He kept going on with his line of what was wrong to which I said I'm not talking to you if you don't answer my questions. He did his line again  of what was wrong to which I laughed and said give it up David,  goodbye

Asian guy rang today claiming to be from BT. gave n English sounding name. Said my BT internet was going to be cut off later today. When challenged he insisted the call was genuine. After some insistence from me he gave this telephone number. Continued to insist he really was from BT. After stringing him along for a few minutes I ended the call Dialling 1471 produced 01246147281, surprise, surprise.

Same story as previous Ron MAthews (Asian voice of Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi accent) of BT TEch Engineerign Dept, 81 Newgate London can be called on 00441793596931, apparently. He wanted me to 'switch on' my computer as they had emergency repairs to do to prevent my Internet from being ceased. I was on 2 x P Cs at the time both setup on different Websites

The above number has been calling me a few times ..first a voice mail saying my internet being compromised and to press 1 on phone to connect to a technician who was Asian but name was Brian Johnston's.When I said my internet was fine and it was a scam he became very offensive . is there a professional body I can report to from BT

I received a call from this as well and they insisted to download a programme to get access to my computer .

I recognised their accent and spoke to them in Asian language .

They admitted that they are scammers but would like to scam only english people and not asians .

I felt bad that these people are out thee to cheat vulnerable people .

Received two or three calls from this person.  Today I had time to call.  Asian sounding guy saying from British Telecom - believe they call themselves BT or Openreach these days.  He informed me that they were worried about my internet connection as there had been attempts from various locations to access it.  Was a bit surprised as i have no relationship with BT at all - neither for phone cable or internet.  He then asked if someone could be using the internet between midnight and 4 am and was quite put out when I said that it was entirely possible as we are both insomniacs.

When challenged he said he could give me an ID security connection number and read the following out - 888DCA60FCOA11FOF0030 - no idea what this means.

I had a phone call a few minutes ago from an Asian man who said his name was Steve Richards and he was phoning from Open Reach. I asked for his phone number and put the phone down.

They were on for 20 mins and I let them use their money to say they were from BT and wanted me to log onto a web address. Got annoyed when I told them they were scamers. Woman with Indian accent caller

Received 2 calls this morning from a woman with an Indian accent claiming to be from BT and telling me that there is something wrong with my internet.  Checked with BT and was assured this was a scam call.  The first was from 01739521074.  I asked the second called for a number to call back, and was given the 0044 number.

I received a call from a girl on this number saying she was from BT and they had detected fraudulent use of my computer.Asked me  then  if I had the computer open in front of me.

Scam call

Just received a call from a woman claiming to be from BT and that my line was being hacked. She asked if I had a laptop over and over. I said I wasn’t comfortable with the call and that I would call my provider and check with them, which I did and they said it was a spoof call. Evil people.

Guy calling, threatening that out BT internet is insecure and will be cut off if i don't follow his instructions.  told me his name is Martin Cooper.  A complete con! This was the number he gave me.
