    Hi Eir

    Since I moved my broadband to you guys I'm receiving spam calls.

    From:
    01 283 89 10
    01 287 07 07
    01 282 11 63

    Voice recording says they are trying to contact with me due to my broadband is compromised.
    I pressed 1 and went straight to support agent with Indian accent telling me that someone else is using my broadband and they need to change my IP address to make it secure.
    Of course I dropped the call then.

    Eir - any advise ?

    Tom

    Hi seanbrady49

    Please ignore these scam callers and be advised to never give out any personal information.  Apologies for any inconvenience caused to yourself, unfortunately there isn't anything we can do to prevent these nuisance callers.

    Kind regards
