Internet Cut Off Scam

The first ploy is to send an automated message to a household’s landline.

This urgent message is seemingly from the home’s internet provider or even the telecoms regulator Ofcom, telling householders their broadband connection is about to be cut off.

They are told to ‘press 1’ on their phone keypad to speak to customer services. But what they are not told is that customer services is, in fact, fraudsters posing as their internet service provider.

A sham employee then sneakily puts time pressure on the customer asking them to act speedily to avoid being disconnected.

Scam Virus Phone Calls

Britons targeted by cold callers pretending to be from Microsoft phoning to fix a fake computer problem

The scam always starts the same way: the phone rings at someone’s home, and the caller – usually with an Indian accent – asks for the householder, quoting their name and address before saying “I’m calling for Microsoft. We’ve had a report from your internet service provider of serious virus problems from your computer.”
