Got a call from 01286 514708 earlier, said they were from BT and asked about my internet. Anyone else had this? Seems a bit dodgy to me.

Somebody rang me from 01370 254285 saying they were from Microsoft and my computer had issues. Felt a bit dodgy to me.

I keep receiving calls daily from numbers all starting with the same few digits. They’ll ring once or twice then drop the call. I block them but next day, right around the same time, a new number with similar prefix calls me again and does the same thing. So far, these are some of the numbers: +88236900369, +242801110579, +88236970145, +242801110239, +88236900363, +242801110570, +88236970143. It’s really annoying and feels like some kind of spam or scam.

They keep ringing me nonstop, so I just blocked it 'cause looks like one of those scam calls. Really makes me wonder, how on earth do they manage to get hold of our phone numbers? That's the real question.

There's no way I was picking up a call showing up as from Congo on my phone. I've not been to that place ever, nor have I got any mates from there either.

Got a call from somewhere in Congo, so I slapped on the auto-block from this app - honestly, it's really good. Didn’t even realise they’d tried ringing till I checked. Really handy, no more stress about dodgy calls now.

Got a call from a Congolese number and decided to try out the auto-block feature on this site. Honestly, it's amazing! Didn’t even realise they’d rung until the app showed me. Feeling much better now, no more stress about unknown calls.

If you get a call from another country and you’re not waiting for one or don’t know anyone over there, the safest bet is to just ignore it and not ring them back. It’s really the easiest way to avoid any hassle.

They called me a couple times but just cut off the call each time.

I keep getting calls from this number like every 10 mins! It's mad. I blocked it ages ago but somehow they still manage to ring me. Total scam, honestly, just don’t pick up if it’s from this one.

If you keep talking for ages, you’re probably gonna see a big jump on your phone bill because of those long distance fees.

Got a call from some Congo number, showed up as a scam alert so I just blocked it. They kept dialing a few times but I never picked up. Honestly, some people are just something else.

I just got two calls I didn’t pick up from this number in the last hour. Since I don’t know anyone based in the Congo, my guess is it’s some kind of scam.

I've only been at work for an hour and already had 8 calls from this number. The phone just rings twice and then hangs up. Worst part is, I can't seem to block it! So annoying.

The phone just buzzed but I reckon it's dodgy so I’m gonna hang up and block the number.

Got a scam call, so I just hung up and blocked the number straight away!

Beware if you ring them back - the charges are really steep and a good chunk of what you pay goes straight to them, so they end up cashing in on it.

Got called 5 times today and they left a voice message saying it was an important call and not to hang up, then just cut off. Feels like a scam to me.
