7 yearsThe phone never even buzzed thanks to t####’s blocking gadget from the whisper challenge. Honestly, t#### really is worth every penny spent on it.7 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from Visa, telling me £600 had been taken from my account without permission and to press 1 if it wasn’t me. This isn’t the first time either, we’ve been getting quite a few calls like this all week.Visa7 yearsSomeone claiming to be from Visa called me saying £600 was taken from my account. I've gotten calls like this before and after checking with my bank, it's clear these are scams. Seriously, don’t press 1.Visa7 yearsGot a robo call saying there was a £600 charge on my card. It asked me to press 1 to confirm or something like that. Definitely automated.7 yearsMy elderly mate, who’s 94, got a call off this number. The person claimed to be from Aviva and said she owed £600, threatening to send warrants if she didn’t cough up. Absolute scumbags!Aviva7 yearsFraud alert - definitely don't hit 1!7 yearsLike others have said here, I just pick up the phone and stay quiet for a bit. Most times, the call drops pretty quickly if it’s one of those spammy ones. Real people usually start chatting after a short pause. Saves me loads of hassle from pesky calls. Afterwards, I look up the number on this site and block any dodgy ones. Works a treat!7 yearsI got calls from three separate numbers, all trying the same £600 scam like others have said. It’s definitely a dodgy one to watch out for.Submit Your Own Report (283790817)
