Scam/Fraud
31 Jul 2024

Claimed to be John calling from BT. Ask if I was the "main user" of the internet connection, then asked if I knew about a "strike" about 10 days ago. This may have been a reference to the CrowdStrike upgrade failure, but I didn't know what he meant and said so. He then hung up. I strongly suspect that he was going to tell me they had detected that I was vulnerable and was going to use this to persuade me to install his malware.
