Got a call from 0116 300 0106, sounded like a quiet, faraway lady with an Indian accent or something. I couldn’t really hear her or get what she was saying, so I just hung up. Going to block the number now.

I received a call around 09:43 from a woman with a distinctly Indian accent who said, "Good afternoon." It seemed to be some kind of mobile phone promotion. I suspect the number might have been faked.

One sunny Thursday afternoon after school, I was chilling at home on my iPad reading stuff when my mum pulled up in the car and started chatting with my sister. Then, I got a call from a number 01163000106, from Leicester. Just so you know, I’m underage, so my reaction was just to freak out straight away. I rushed to the door shouting for my mum, she came in and she thought about maybe reporting calls like that here. This was the first time I ever got a scam call and honestly, it felt pretty dodgy. I’d suggest blocking and deleting it if you get anything similar. - Someone from Warwick

I received a call purporting to be from PC World, claiming I could snag a 45% discount on my next mobile. Trouble is, I've never so much as set foot in one of their stores or made a purchase from them, nor am I in the market for a new phone. The bloke on the other end was relentless, probing for details about my current device. I firmly stated I had no interest and ended the conversation. Do yourself a favour and block this number!

This bloke claimed he was from O2 but honestly, I’m not convinced. When I got my sim about 10 years back, the first time I topped up O2 promised 10% cashback, but only if I made an account on the legit O2 website, which I did, and I also opted out of all their marketing and surveys. What got me laughing was when I started shouting a few choice words at this so-called "Robert" on the phone, he just abruptly cut me off!

Got a call from someone claiming to be O2, saying I could get 40% off my bill if I gave them a code they sent in a text. Obviously, they wanted that code so they could get into my account. The message even warned me not to share the code with anyone, not even O2 employees. Had a bit of a laugh trying to make the woman on the phone understand why I wouldn’t give it to her. Definitely reported it to O2.

I inquired several times about the origin of the call due to the heavy Indian accent that was quite rapid. I wasn’t trying to be impolite, just really unsure if it was a legitimate call. She mentioned something that sounded like 'PC World,' so I echoed that back to her, and before I knew it, she had ended the call. It’s obvious now that it was a scam.

Received a call purporting to be from Currys, inquiring about the type of phone I own. When I pressed him on how he obtained my information-I’ve never made a purchase from Currys-he simply responded that he had it. I informed him that I wished to invoke my right to erasure under GDPR, and without a moment’s hesitation, he terminated the call.

Got a call when I was busy at work, no voicemail left which always makes me suspicious with these dodgy calls (surely if it was something legit they'd leave a message, right?). Called back and they started with some nonsense about my phone contract being upgraded at carphone warehouse. I’ve never been a customer there or got any contract with them, so I just hung up and blocked the number straight away. Best to just block these scam callers, no point wasting time!

So it seems that I've received a call from Carphone Warehouse claiming to represent Three, which is my mobile carrier. However, it's worth noting that Three and Carphone Warehouse don’t actually have any ties, and you definitely can't purchase a Three phone through Carphone Warehouse. Quite odd, isn’t it?

Definitely a dodgy number. They said they were from hmrc first, now sounds like carphone warehouse or something. my advice: dont answer calls from numbers you dont know, especially if they dont seem legit. once you answer, they know your phone's live and will keep ringing for ages.
