'to be interested in' and 'to be interested about' have the same meaning.

To be interested at doesn't have the same meaning. It can be used in some contexts but the 'at' would not apply to what you were interested in itself. For example. I'm not interested now but I might be interested at a later date.

This is a common learner mistake unfortunately.

The acceptible usage of it is "to be interested in". Not the other prepositions such as "about".

I'm not interested in football though my dad is a coach.

You do not seem very interested in what I am saying.

P.S I'
