3 monthsGot another spammy call out of the blue, third time in just a couple of days. The first two calls were from 0114 386 3116. I've blocked both those numbers now.2 yearsI received a dodgy phone call from an Indian call centre earlier. The bloke on the other end claimed he was ringing about some issues with my computer and urged me to download a specific application. It definitely seemed like a scam to me!3 yearsDidn’t pick up since number was unfamiliar. Just blocked it.3 yearsGot two calls from this number today. I usually avoid answering unknown numbers since most of them turn out to be scams. I never call back either. If it’s something important, they’ll leave a voicemail. Also, make sure to report any suspicious texts to 7726.3 yearsI kept getting calls from a number I didn’t recognise at all, somewhere called Five Mile Town. Never picked up coz it seemed dodgy. Later tried ringing back a few times but it just disconnected every time. Did a quick search online and found loads of other people complaining about it. Going to block them for sure.Five Mile Town3 yearsGot a call from some asian numbers again, best not to pick up. If you wanna stop them, just text ‘call’ to 7726 and they should sort it out by blocking the number.3 yearsGot a call from some unknown number telling me my bank account got charged 900 quid, and they said to "press one for help". I checked my account right away and there was nothing wrong, total rubbish. Blocked the number and reported it. Watch out for these scammers!3 yearsSome bloke rang me claiming to be from my phone company, saying they were merging with another and needed my info to keep my contract going. Total rubbish. Proper scam, that one. Definitely dodgy.3 yearsSeen the number pop up, ignored it and blocked straight away, glad to see I trusted my gut on this one.3 yearsGot a call from a number I didn't recognise, and since they didn't bother leaving a message, I just blocked it straight away.3 yearsReceived a call from some people claiming to be from a company, but it was just a scam trying to steal my bank info. Don’t trust anything these dodgy folks say - there’s no legit business behind those calls. If everyone just ignores them, they won’t be able to get your cash. They hide who they are for a reason. Plus, if the number begins with +44, it’s not a normal landline, usually it’s a robocall. Make sure to report any scams like this to phishing.gov.uk and you can also text 'dall' to 7726. Stay safe out there!3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were Amazon, telling me about an iPhone order I supposedly placed, but I never ordered anything like that.Amazon3 yearsI got a call coming through the internet from India or Pakistan, and I'm pretty sure it’s one of those bank scams. Best to block the number, report it, and if you can, send a text with the word 'CALL' to 7726.IndiaPakistan3 yearsI looked up this life insurance quote and found warnings on the FCA website saying the company isn’t authorised. Seems like a total scam, so definitely avoid dealing with them!FCA3 yearsSomeone called me pretending to be from Crown offering home insulation. When I told them I wasn’t interested, they had the cheek to call me rude! My tip? Don’t bother answering, just block the number. Make sure to report it to Action Fraud and text the word CALL to 7226.CrownAction Fraud3 yearsAbsolutely a total scam, watch out everyone!3 yearsI came across a firm called margrathea teleCommunications Limited who seem to be the ones letting out these phone numbers. Looks like they deal mainly in selling numbers to scammers who use them to trick folks. They provide lists of numbers for calls, whether landline or mobile, so if you get a call from a VoIP number linked to them, chances are you’re on one of these target lists. Best thing to do is report it to Action Fraud and also send a text to 7266.Margrathea Telecommunications LimitedAction Fraud3 yearsAfter getting six calls from them today, I’ve finally put them on my block list.3 yearsJust a heads up, these people are trying to trick you into giving away your personal info. Definitely a scam!3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with Crown, offering to install home insulation. Told them I wasn’t interested, and then they went and called me rude! My suggestion, just ignore and block the number. Also, report it to Action Fraud and text the word CALL to 7226.Action Fraud3 yearsI found out that Margathea Telecom is the one giving out these numbers. They seem to mainly hand out phone numbers to scammers so they can trick folks. They provide both landline and mobile numbers, and also give out lists of numbers that are currently being used to ring people. So if you get a call from a VoIP number linked to them, it means you're probably on one of their call lists.Margrathea Telecommunications Limited3 yearsIf you want to cut down on scam calls and dodgy messages, the best thing you can do is REPORT them! Emails with phishing or nasty content (and screenshots) should be sent to '[email protected]'. Any scam texts you get, forward them to '7726'. Don’t ever click on suspicious links - they might install malware on your phone. Also, if you get creepy or scammy calls, text CALL and the number to '7726', which helps warn others on your mobile network. Don’t forget, tell your local MP about all these scams, they need to know! If you’ve accidentally given your bank details away, phone your bank straight away. Then make sure you report it to 'action fraud' and forward any info to '7726'. Post your experience here too, so others can stay safe. Want to learn more? Just google 'action fraud' or check out 'police.uk' and follow the advice. And one last thing, never ring back random numbers! - Anon 13Google3 yearsBeware this is a total SCAM! I’ve been getting calls, texts, emails, and even fake letters daily from them. Blocking numbers doesn’t seem to help at all since they just move on to different ones. I reached out to the police, and they suggested reporting everything to Action Fraud and warning others on social media because normal sites don’t do enough to stop these scammers. The officers recommended everyone who’s hit by these calls or messages to make awareness posts and ask friends to share them - it’s the only way to keep people alert to these scams. These crooks have reportedly swindled hundreds of thousands of pounds in just the last few days, so spreading the word really matters. Stay safe and tell others!Action Fraud3 yearsGot a call coming through internet from India or Pakistan, pretty sure it's some dodgy bank scam. Best to block the number, report it, and send the details to 7726 with a text. Don't fall for it!IndiaPakistan3 yearsGot a random call saying they took £900 from my bank and to "press one if I needed help". I looked it up and it was total rubbish. Ended up blocking the number and reporting it. Watch out for these scammers!3 yearsI got a call from some people claiming to be from a bank, but it was obvious they wanted my bank info. Don’t trust anything these scammers say, they make up company names to sound legit. If you just ignore the call, they can’t get anything from you. They always hide their real number for a reason. And if the number starts with +44, it’s not a normal landline, probs some automated scam. Make sure to report stuff like this at phishing.gov.uk or text DALL to 7726 to help stop them.3 yearsBeware of life cover quotes from them, theyre not legit. The FCA website itself warns you, saying the company isnt authorised and to avoid any dealings with them because its a fraud. Total scam.FCA3 yearsGot a call from some Asians again, mate. Best thing is just don’t pick up. You can text 7726 to report the number, they’ll try to shut it down for you.3 yearsI didn’t pick up since I’ve no mates in Sheffield. Tried ringing back a few times but it just cut off right away… seemed dodgy. So I had a quick google and found loads of stuff about this number. Gonna block it now and report it to action fraud, plus text them on 7726.SheffieldAction Fraud3 yearsI saw the call but didn’t pick up, then went ahead and blocked the number - turns out I guessed right about it.3 yearsGot a call from a number I didn't recognise, no voicemail either, so I just went ahead and blocked it.3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from Amazon, checking if I’d ordered an iPhone. Thing is, I never placed that order at all.Amazon3 yearsHad a couple of calls from unfamiliar numbers today. Usually, these are just spam or scams, so I don’t answer or bother ringing them back. If it’s something important, they’ll leave a voicemail anyway. Also, if you get dodgy texts, you can report them to 7726.3 yearsSome muppet rang claiming they were from a phone company merging with mine, asked for my info to 'sort out my service'. Total rubbish. Proper scam artists.3 yearsComplete con job, claiming to handle PPI payouts, telling me I’d got £2550 plus £1550 interest from my bank. I played along and mentioned a made-up bank called "Bank of Paris," which they clearly weren’t familiar with. Then, they gave me some sort of reference and ID numbers, saying they never ask for card or bank details. They told me the money was in a ‘wallet’ and switched me to another guy with an Asian accent. He asked for those ID and ref numbers, so I threw out fake ones. He got flustered and asked for my phone number to verify the details. Then suddenly came up with totally different reference numbers and mocked me for being “bad with tech.” Said he’d help me get into the wallet by putting my phone on loudspeaker (why?) and opening Play Store to download this AnyDesk app, which would give them remote control of my phone. No doubt they wanted to grab bank info, passwords and identities. These charlatans really need to be stopped. Definitely worth reporting to the police and the Financial Conduct Authority as phishing scams.Bank of ParisPlay StoreFinancial Conduct Authority3 yearsThis is the classic 30% discount on your O2 bill scam where they pretend to connect you to their supervisor - who’s actually just another bloke in the same dodgy call centre in Mumbai. Then, they ask you for a six-digit code that O2 supposedly sends you by text. When you mention the message says not to share the code with anyone, even staff, the scammer reassures you it’s totally fine just this once. If you fall for it and give them the code, they’ll use it to buy an expensive phone on your account, which they’ll have delivered to some PO box they control. After that, you’re stuck dealing with the mess.MumbaiO23 yearsGot six calls from them already today, so I’ve just gone ahead and blocked the number.3 yearsI hung up pretty quick so I never really figured out why the person even called me. It was a woman with an Indian accent and she kicked off with “how are you doing sir” instead of checking if she was speaking to *my real name*. That kinda made me feel like it’s just one of those scam calls from some call centre.4 yearsThat number 0114386326 kept calling me loads, like 21 times within just 6 hours! My phone flagged it as spam so I just ignored it. Honestly, felt like pure harassment with all those constant rings.4 yearsThis number has called me a bunch of times, I really don't know who it is.4 yearsI got a call where no one said a word and they just cut off after a bit. Really strange.4 yearsThey rang up saying it was about my life insurance with a firm I’ve never dealt with. When I asked which company I actually use, they couldn’t give me a number to get in touch. Instead, they just offered to schedule a callback. Not interested, cheers.4 yearsThe person who called was rushing through their spiel and barely gave me a chance to get a word in. I tried to break in but they just kept going non-stop. In the end, I just hung up and blocked the number because they clearly didn’t care about any no cold-calling list. Seems a bit shady to me!4 yearsI got a call from someone with an Indian accent offering to fix my broken computer. When I asked which device he meant in the office, he replied saying it was because I run a business. I said yeah and told him to wait while we do a quick background check on him. Before I could finish, he just hung up on me.4 yearsFor the past couple of weeks, Sun Life has been ringing me daily. I picked up at last today, but there was nobody on the other end. Proper pointless if you ask me.Submit Your Own Report (0114 386 3261)
