Easy to spot fraud. Man with Indian accent, claiming to be calling from BT in London, and clearly reading from a script, told me there had been lots of suspicious activity on my Internet connection. I pressed him for a genuine BT number I could call back on, and he gave me 00441793596931, a Swindon area code. Lots of background chatter, poor quality line. Told him I couldn't hear him properly and kept him talking to waste his time until he finally gave up and hung up.

Asian male called Jack claimed to be from Openreach stating my internet was slow. After discussing stated I wanted to verify him. Gave me an ID number, stated he was in London, the number he gave was Swindon. My caller display showed 01142354853 which is Sheffield. Completly false.

Rang me on 01793 596931.
They said they were from open reach and I had router/internet problems. Wanted me to log into my computer and download stuff!!! As if!! Second call in one day from two different numbers told them they were scammers and to go away. He gave me this number to ring for by to prove they were genuine. They rang on 07209 141034. -

-
Foreign caller showing 07780 394984 but claiming to be available on 1793596931 pretending to be a BT engineer to "help" with the junk files in the router. Well trained scammer probably, claiming BT is the "mother" provider for internet whichever provider you're actually using.
-
apparently i have an internet issue which they can fix-oh really!
-
Claiming to be from outreach, then later from BT, saying they knew I had problem with my router/internet. Worryingly I had reported the same the day before to EE and was told to expect a call from outreach...coincedence???
-
Some call med (no name) and told me that they are from BT Technical Support. They went on rambling about my IP being registered with fraudsters etc. I told them that I do use the internet but I don't have an IP :) They went on for 1-2 mins and then they hung up.
-
Called claiming to be from BT Openreach and they were cutting off my internet, I asked for number which they provided for me to call back, I thought about it and informed them I will look up a number for myself for BT and the caller became abusive and hung up. Total Scam.
-
Lady just called saying she was from BT and that my broadband has been hacked and if I can't download the software to fix it then my internet will be switched off. She told me to download an app which I did but upon downloading it I realised it was an app to remotely control my phone from another device. When I asked why she needed to control my old broken phone when apparently the internet line is the problem she passed me to a man who became aggressive and passed me back. I asked for her number so I could call back after I had checked that she wasn't the scammer and she tried her hardest to get me to stay on the line and open the app allowing her to control my phone! Ignore this number, total scam
-

Indian women told me I had problems on my internet she said she was from BT so passed me over to Indian guy called Ryan Wilson BT number 1997. He want to correct the problem I told him when I check the call out he can or I will call him Back.
another scam. these people want catching and given a good kicking then sent to jail -
Lady with Indian accent said she was calling on behalf of Open Reach because she said I had problems with my internet connection. Not the case.
-
Indian gentleman called and insisted my internet was about to be cut-off, worryingly had access to my correct account number. Gave the 01793596931 for me to call back, actual call came from 001277 221987, obvious scam but have contacted BT to ask how they got hold of my account details.
-
Called this morning, around 9:00, with asian accent, demanding me to log into my laptop, phone, ipad and went through internet solving problem. when I refused, started shouting, asked for his manager, he gave me his name Jordan Lee and ID !!! number DC596782.I refused and called BT, who blocked that number for me
-
Similar to other comments added here, but the 'Indian' man called himself Jonathan Watson. He gave me the number 441793596931 to call back. Worryingly this outfit did have my full name.
Malvern replied 2018-10-12 12:47:53This outfit was reported as spamming over two years ago, so why has not BT done anything about these people? -
From By, my router's secondary device sending error messages. Asked how many lights were showing. Then gave me this my bet when I queried their credentials.
-

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 ...

Claiming to be BT regarding an internet problem, must connect to my PC to fix today yadda yadda yadda. Soon as I mentioned I work in IT they hang up.
-
Asian sounding guy. Said his name was Sam Lawrence ringing from Open Reach re my dropping internet signal. I told him I had to go out and could he give me the number to call back 00441793596931. He said he was British Telecom Technical Department and that I should make sure I called back as it is very urgent. SCAM
-
I received a call from a man with a very strong accent claiming to be from BT to help speed up our broadband. The fact that he greeted me saying “hi I’m Martin” then 5 minutes later told me his name was John Wilson, was a huge red flag. I can confirm that this is a scam call number as I called the real BT to confirm the number was not affiliated with them. Do not give out any information or allow these scammers access to your computer!

fraudulent bt scam callers

I found this number on the BT website whilst looking for a number in order to cancel my landline. I then Googled this number and it came up on this site.It is a legitimate BT number that users can ring from abroad as an alternative to the BT 0800 number. I have just spoken to a legitimate call handler to cancel my account as well.
Mas replied 2017-10-04 20:32:59I clicked on 'trustworthy number' for my comments above. I don't know why it has registered as 'sweepstakes, lottery' !!! -
Asian sounding man called claiming to be from BT - ringing about our problems with our landline, which we didn't have, Definitely a scam.
