Your Internet Service will be cut off - Automated scam calls
Added 2018-06-21 14:58:26 +0000 UTCI recorded this audio yesterday from a call centre located in Kolkata, India. The automated message claimed that my Internet (Broadband) service would be cut off and that they callers were from BT (a large ISP in the UK).
Of course it's a prelude to the usual tech support scam. There will be a video on the aftermath of this shortly.

2018-06-22 21:46:28 +0000 UTCI'd like to hope that I don't fall for one of these myself, but I'm sure like everyone my age, you never think you'll get old. I'll probably hate all new technology in 40 years time.

2018-06-22 21:44:19 +0000 UTC"We are hereby to inform you..." using some automated robot American accent speech. I am constantly amazed anybody falls for this kind of stuff but I guess it is the elderly, vulnerable and confused. I'll probably be there one day!
