Hello every body just got a call about 9 am from a lady saying you have a problem with your internet connection.

I had have just been on to the Broadband provider who I was informed was not them.

To all my friends in the community please be aware you might be caught out like me.

PLEASE DO NOT GET TAKEN IN

PLEASE DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY INFORMATION

THIS IS A SCAM

Please be aware most phone and broadband companies have a system .  Where to screen calls on your phone.

Call comes through press button and accept.  If not accepting do not press this button.

Good thing I put the phone down .  Had common sense to do this.

Take care

If not sure ring broadband provider they make a reference on their website to others.
