Watch out for fraudsters claiming to be calling from BT

Working at home today, have just had three calls in less than an hour from three different fraudsters all claiming to be from different parts of BT.

One of them gave the game away instantly by doing something which a genuine BT employee almost certainly would not do, e.g. referring to the company as "British Telecom" which is a trade name which was replaced by "BT" thirty years ago, and hung up when I called him on it.

The other two hung up when I asked them for their Employee Identification Numbers.
