Got a recorded call saying it was from VISa, claiming £600 was taken from my bank. They told me to press 1 to talk to someone. I’ve already reported it to Action Fraud.

Got a call from someone saying there was a £600 charge on my Visa card, but it was totally fake so I just ended the call straight away.

If you have the chance, definitely block the number +1243 826882 because it’s a scam too. Avoid it ahead of time if possible.

Got a voicemail claiming to be from Visa about a £600 payment. They told me to hit 1 if I wasn’t the one who made the purchase. I just ended the call.

I got a call about some visa charge of £600, sounded fishy so I hit 1 just to waste their time and stop them conning someone else. They tried to get me to log into rtremotesupport[###] so they could supposedly block hackers from Manchester who were using my net to nick dosh. Like I'd hand over control of my computer! I kept them chatting for around 20 mins. They even gave a number that looked legit, 02073565000 and an address for a BT place on Newgate St, London. I reckon they thought I wouldn’t actually ring it back. Really sketchy stuff - watch out!

Over the past couple days, I've gotten this recorded message three times now. It claims to be from Visa Secure and says there's been a £600 purchase on my account. The message says to press 1 if I didn't authorise the transaction. I ignored it and just ended the call.

I received a call from this number claiming to be from BT. They tried to convince me that my internet connection was being exploited for some dubious HSBC transaction in Manchester. They insisted that I permit them to access my computer via rtremotesupport.com in order to “halt this unlawful activity”. They even provided me with a BT contact number, 02073565000, which looks valid enough-I'd wager they didn’t think I’d actually call it. I kept them engaged on the line for as long as possible, reasoning that the longer I chatted with them, the less opportunity they had to dupe someone more susceptible. I've noticed that this number seems to have a track record of similar scamming antics.

Just like loads of others have said, I got a call from a recorded female voice that sounded sort of British. She said she was from "VISA Secure" and claimed there was a £600 transaction on my card. She then told me to press 1 if I didn’t know anything about it. Total scam, obviously.

Got a scam call today, this robotic voice was on about £600 being taken from my account and telling me to ring some number. I didn't wait to hear the whole thing!

I received a recorded call regarding Deferred Terms that prompted me to press 1 for assistance from one of their agents.

Received a rather dubious phone call purporting to be from VISA, asserting that there had been some sort of unauthorised transaction on my account, urging me to press 1 for further details. It's blatantly obvious that this is a fraudulent attempt, especially since I don’t even hold a VISA account!

Sounds like it’s one of those scam calls from the US trying to freak me out about £600 missing from my bank. Decided to just block the number straight away.
