Expert Opinion

Be cautious with unsolicited calls claiming to be from BT, as these reports highlight a clear pattern of impersonation. Scammers often pose as telecom reps offering fake upgrades or new handsets, aiming to extract personal details or install malware. In one case, the caller awkwardly revealed a location like Hatton Garden, which doesn't align with genuine BT operations. No legitimate company leaves no message or hangs up abruptly when questioned. Always verify by contacting BT directly via their official number on your bill, never the caller's details. Hang up immediately on suspicious pitches and report to Action Fraud to help curb these nuisances. Block the number and consider call screening apps for added protection.
