Got a call today on my office phone, they wanted my mobile number to send some 'TRACKING CODE' for a package. Seems like a scam to me, defo dont share any details with them.

I received a call earlier today from a number supposedly from the Netherlands. The person on the other end spoke fairly decent English and mentioned something about having a parcel to deliver. They wanted to double-check my home address and requested my email for sending confirmation regarding the package. I didn’t provide any information and decided to hang up instead. Can’t quite put my finger on it, but something felt off. Not sure if they had dubious motives, but it definitely raised my suspicions.

A woman with an Asian accent rang me up asking for a colleague’s personal mobile number. She said she’d lost her phone and was waiting at Frankfurt airport for a lift. When I asked for more business details, she claimed it was a private matter and that’s why she needed the private number. I told her I couldn’t share that info and asked how she knew the work number but not the private one if it’s a private trip. Then I pointed out why I was seeing a Brazilian country code on my screen when she said she was calling from Frankfurt, Germany. She hung up right after that :-)

a woman with an indian accent called me and said she was a recruiter. She asked if I wanted a job in Bangladesh.

Got a call from a woman with an Indian accent asking for a workmate's phone number. She claimed to be the MD of Unilever in Hong Kong. Total rubbish if you ask me!

I received a phone call from someone who was rather insistent about speaking to a specific individual, mentioning their role and suggesting they were overseeing a project. The caller portrayed themselves as being in a bit of a tizzy, as they were hurrying to catch a flight, claiming they were currently in Singapore. They struggled with their mobile service, citing issues and used Skype as an excuse for the poor call quality. They introduced themselves as David but couldn't provide a callback number, insisting they wouldn't arrive back in London until the following day when they intended to pick up a local SIM card. The whole thing seemed rather fishy, to be honest, with the endless stream of excuses.

Rang me up yesterday while I was at my workplace, saying they needed to confirm some details about certain colleagues for an email they were preparing - all of whom were based in the Japanese office. The very next day, they tried again, and when I questioned why they were contacting me at such a late hour, they mentioned they were travelling. When I probed further about who they were, they claimed to represent the client side of my company. At that point, I'd had enough, so I did a quick search on the number that popped up on my screen, landed on this site, and wrapped up the call. The caller had a distinct foreign accent, something akin to Indian rather than American, though they spoke English quite well.

They keep asking for coworkers and keep wanting mobile numbers every time. Always got the same excuse: I’ve lost my phone and I’m away on a work trip right now. You can hear that call centre noise in the background clear as day. After waiting ages, I just end up hanging up on them.

I got a call from this number, and the person wanted to speak to someone at work and get both the office and their mobile number. It was a woman with an accent - initially, I thought she sounded Italian, but by the time she finished, I wasn’t so sure and thought maybe Indian instead.

Got a call from this number asking for a coworker and wanted both the office and mobile numbers. The lady on the line spoke with an accent - at first, I guessed Italian but by the end, it sounded more like Indian.

Got a call from this number, a woman asked to speak to someone at work and wanted both the office and mobile numbers. She had an accent that threw me off at first, sounded Italian initially but then seemed more like Indian.

I received a phone call today while I was at the office from someone wanting to get in touch with a colleague of mine. He mentioned something about needing to deliver a parcel. When I politely declined to share the phone number he was after, he sounded rather put out. Quite odd, isn’t it?

I received a rather peculiar phone call from someone with a foreign accent. They uttered my name correctly and proceeded to inquire whether I was the person they were looking for, followed by the rather unsettling question, "Can you hear me?" It felt like a ploy to coax a "yes" out of me. When I responded with "Speaking," they hung up without hesitation. I'm beginning to suspect they have some of my personal information and are attempting to engage in identity theft by capturing my voice to access any bank services that might rely on voice recognition technology. Quite alarming, really!

Received a call earlier today from someone who seemed to know my name. When I confirmed it was me on the line, they promptly disconnected. Quite odd, really!

He went by the name of Keith Movado, claiming to represent Reckless Solutions. He requested the contact number of my director, mentioning something about needing to board a flight back to Sydney. It's for certain that this is a scam. On the plus side, his English was quite decent.

Caller seems dubious-likely a scam or phishing attempt, so best not to pick up.

this number keeps ringing our office asking for details. we're sorting out how to block it soon.

SHE RING ME UP ASKING FOR DETAILS OF MY WORK COLLEAGUES, AS SOON AS I TOLD HER IT WAS A SCAM SHE STARTED YELLING AT ME WITH RUDE LANGUAGE. WATCH OUT FOR THIS NUMBER!

I've received three calls from this chap already. At first, he was after someone completely unfamiliar to me, then he wanted a colleague's number, and shortly after that, he was ringing up another person on my behalf. He insists he's a courier based in Basingstoke, but when I tried to pry for his name, I couldn't quite catch it. Quite the mystery, if you ask me!

I received a call from a number traced back to Brazil, yet the lady claimed she was in Japan. She mentioned something about losing her internet connection and requested access to my company's system to look up a phone number. This is the second time I've encountered a similar scenario. I swiftly declined her request and subsequently blocked the number. Just a heads up for everyone to stay vigilant!

I simply felt like they were fishing for a straightforward 'yes' from me. Quite frustrating, to be honest.

someone rang saying they needed to speak to my boss, who’s always getting bothered by recruiters, but he was away on holiday. the person insisted there was a parcel for him. i asked where they were calling from and they said London. when i asked for the exact area or postcode, the bloke got a bit rude. called them out for just wasting my time.

I received a call from this number, and the person on the other end spoke rather unclearly. They claimed to be from Australia and mentioned they needed some assistance. I would appreciate it if someone could look into the identity of this caller. Who might they be?

Got a call from some bloke saying he was a doctor, asking for people's phone numbers from my work. When I told him I couldn’t give those out, he just ended the call.

Received a call earlier today from someone purportedly based in the Philippines, seeking details about my colleagues. I decided it was best to cut the conversation short and ended the call.

Got a call from someone claiming to be from corporate IT needing to confirm my job title. They mentioned some general stuff about the company but didn’t have any real details. Looks to me like they’re a recruitment firm working with different businesses, probably in the oil sector this time.

This "Ryan Cedic" fella from Munich Publications kept ringing me about doing a "full coverage story" on my business. He seemed to know the big wigs' names but got their surnames wrong or spelled them badly and his emails bounced back. When I asked for a callback number, he gave some weird one like 6576-945-250. He rang me like seven times in an hour and got pretty rude when I didn't give him any info. Quite a hassle, honestly.

I've been getting incessant phone calls from this number. My iPhone indicates it's traced to Brazil. However, when I answer, there's nobody on the line. All I can hear is some faint mumbling in the background. Quite odd, really!

I received a call from someone who had a pronounced foreign accent. They claimed to be associated with HSBC, probing for details about our business. I ended the call earlier than I would have liked.

Got a call from someone who knew my name. Asked if I’m the sole manager in my dept, then said he’d ring me back. Didn’t say who he was or what company he was from, no reason for calling either. Very strange.

Got a call from Erica in Brazil! She’s askin’ for someone we used to work with!

I received a call from a woman with an Indian accent who was trying to fish for personal details. I'd advise anyone to disregard this call.

Steer clear of Call er, as they seem to be fishing for personal details. It’s best to give them a wide berth!

Someone rang a mate of mine asking to have a word with me. He claimed he'd attempted to send a few reports to me with my name in the CC, but apparently, they bounced back. I had no clue who he was, yet he managed to convince me to provide my proper email and phone number. He seemed to know my name and job title. He had another go at calling me afterwards, but I never got that email. So, I decided to look up his number and stumbled upon this site. Cheers for putting this out there!

I received a rather peculiar phone call from a lady who had quite a pronounced Indian/Pakistani accent. She introduced herself as Sasha and claimed to be calling from Switzerland. She requested to chat with a colleague of mine, but, as luck would have it, they weren’t around. Upon hearing this, she asked if she could speak to someone else from our quality team. When I inquired about the nature of her call, she mentioned she was in the process of updating the International Employee Directory for our old company name, which raised some red flags for me - particularly since we’ve recently rebranded to Company Y and surely anyone involved would be aware of that change. When I pressed her further, she simply stated that she would amend the name in her records. I decided to terminate the call, but she promptly rang back. This time, I didn’t engage and hung up again. Shortly thereafter, she tried once more - this time from an Indian number, 0091 2233 4295 00. Her tone had turned rather aggressive, claiming that I had a responsibility to assist anyone who asked for help and threatening to escalate the matter to my managers. I continued to hang up, and eventually, she seemed to relent. Quite the hassle, I must say!

Received a call from this number and the person asked for the email of a global firm. She was able to spell out the company name and even the department correctly.

Possible Scam Alert! A woman going by the name Jessica rang in from Malaysia, saying she required the contact details for the HR Compensation and Benefits team. She pushed quite hard to be connected to HR, despite being turned down a few times. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

I had a rather peculiar phone call from a chap named Richard today, who was attempting to solicit information while supposedly grappling with some laptop troubles at an airport in Italy. Upon pointing out his dials were off-Italy uses the 00 39 code, whereas he dialled 00 55, which belongs to Brazil-he seemed to wobble a bit, claiming he was using a payphone instead. It was amusing, really, as he grew rather irate when I suggested we just end the call, as it was clear he was trying to fish for personal details. This isn't the first time he’s reached out; he's made rounds to several of my colleagues, each time positing that he’s stranded at various airports. Honestly, it makes me wonder if Richard somehow possesses a Concorde or perhaps an ability to teleport himself across Europe in no time at all, or if he’s just another dubious con artist trying his luck.

Got a call like that too, a woman with an English accent going on about stuff only I would know, just the surname was a bit off. What’s the deal with these calls? What are they trying to achieve exactly?

I’ve been getting numerous calls from various offices in Germany. There’s an individual on the line purporting to be a workmate from the Emirates, who claims he’s misplaced his laptop and is in dire need of a few contact numbers. He consistently rings from that same number: 0055 63,572,948th.

Dodgy character! They were masquerading as a doctor setting up a new clinic (yes, really!) while trying to pry for personal details.

Received a call from this number, with the person on the other end touting themselves as the head of software from some firm. They were after the direct line of one of my colleagues. Naturally, I couldn’t pass on that information due to our office protocols. This apparently threw him into a bit of a tizzy, and he began to go on about how I had the audacity to handle him that way - just a load of nonsense! Ended the call promptly. Shockingly, just two minutes later, the same number rang again, this time with a different story and a different name! Quite the ordeal, I must say.

Got a weird call from some woman claiming she was a partner of ours. She was really cheeky and rude!

A rather dubious male rang me up, asserting he was the Head of HR for some firm from Australia, though I couldn't quite catch the name. He mentioned he was currently in Singapore but seemed to be grappling with a dodgy internet connection. In a rather roundabout way, he inquired about obtaining someone’s phone number back in Australia. When I asked for his contact details so that the person could ring him back, he became quite irate at my request-after all, he claimed to be the HR Head. I explained that I couldn’t just hand out that number, and he snapped at me, saying I ought to have been straightforward instead of beating around the bush. Quite the encounter, I must say!

Gave us a bell twice.

This number 005563572948 kept calling me asking about staff at our firm. The guy was quite impolite, so I just ended the call. After that, he kept ringing back multiple times.

Got a call from someone in Brazil who already knew my name and the company I work for. They said there was a parcel for me to be delivered. I wasn’t expecting anything and thought it was dodgy, so I just hung up.
