Caller say my internet is compromised !!

[#1]

I have had 3 or 4 calls over the last few days saying they are from BT and my internet / router is compromised. I assume this is a scam and hung up any one know anything about such a scam.

Thanks

It's a scam - there are a number of threads about this, and even more reports on http://uk.whocalledme.net/ and similar sites.
