Got a call from someone saying they're the National Crime Agency, told me my National Insurance number was involved in some dodgy stuff. They said I had to press 1 to talk to someone or else they'd freeze all my assets. Like, come on, give me a ring when you've found my offshore account in the Caymans!

Somebody rang up saying they were from Total Gas and Power, telling me there was a problem with their billing system and that our invoices had the wrong Meter Supply Number on them. Felt a bit dodgy and sounded like a scammer who wanted to grab our account info. When I asked them for the account password, they just cut the call straight away.

We received a call from a chap named 'Jack Hammer,' who spoke with an Indian accent. He claimed to represent Positive Energy, our new energy supplier that we had only switched to a week prior. He mentioned some sort of issue with our billing and asked if we could retrieve our most recent invoice from them.

This morning I got a call from a woman who said she was representing a bunch of different companies at the same time, which was quite baffling. She wanted details like when our contract finishes, but I didn’t have that info to hand. When I couldn’t help her, I handed the phone to my boss, and she just hung up straight away. Definitely feels like a scam!

We've had calls from this number several times today at work, and it did the same thing around a month back. Every time we hang up, they ring straight back again. The most recent call even threatened to disconnect our meter later today.

Got a call yesterday from someone speaking with an Indian accent, said he was from Octopus Energy - who we don't even use. He warned he'd ring us up "400 times" if we didn't hand over the info he wanted. After we ended the call, he tried ringing back about 30 times or more. Proper creepy scammer, sounded a bit off in the head too. Watch out for this one.

This bloke, 'Alex', has been ringing me on a few occasions now. First, he said he was from Octopus, and now he's claiming to be with Eon. When I wouldn’t share any details, he just ended the call. Definitely not my first run-in with him.

I received a rather odd phone call from someone with an Indian accent inquiring about our electricity supply number. The initial call claimed to be from Octopus Energy, which, for the record, we have no dealings with. Naturally, I decided to terminate that conversation rather swiftly. To my surprise, they rang back just moments later, insisting they represented a different energy provider. I politely informed them that I wasn’t keen on having any discussions and requested that they refrain from calling again. To my astonishment, the caller then threatened to ring me up "400 times" if I didn’t engage. Following that encounter, we were inundated with over 30 additional calls, though I’ve since taken the step to block the number. I get the feeling that this caller is not merely running a scam but may also be dealing with some significant personal issues.

Someone rang claiming to be from SSE, saying they were the company supplying us atm. I asked for the account holder’s name, and they gave some random person’s name. I ended the call, but they rang back right away with a different name from some business list. They mentioned our meter number was billed wrong, but when I asked how to sort out payment, they couldn’t explain. Then they whined about me being rude and making things hard for them - I just stuck the radio on speaker and got back to work.

So this woman rings up saying she’s from British Gas with some story about a nationwide billing mistake and that our meter number doesn’t line up with our postcode. She wanted to check our info but I just ended the call. They called again right away, but we managed to shake them off. Guess the TPS list doesn’t do much good after all!

Someone rang me saying they were from Scottish Power, saying there was some confusion about my meter readings after they supposedly came to my place. I told him to hold on while I checked with the local office, but they said no one had actually visited. When I asked him about it, he just hung up on me. Then no sooner had I put the phone down than he rang again, this time claiming he worked for British Gas! Proper scam, avoid these lot.

So, someone rang saying they were from British Gas needing info about our gas meter. I told them we work in a serviced office, then they asked for the landlord’s contact, but I refused to share that since it’s not my call. The person had an Indian accent and there was loads of noise in the background. Funny thing is, there's no gas connected here anyway!

I received a call from someone purporting to be from British Gas Lite, insisting that my meter readings were out of hand and asked me to fetch my bill to provide them with details. It’s a blatant scam! The real company doesn’t even operate over the phone; all communication is through email. Imagine the trouble this could cause for those who aren’t in the know. It’s nothing but deceit! I hung up immediately. Why on earth can’t they manage to put an end to these scoundrels?

Got a few calls from Complete at [email protected] within ten minutes - they said they were from Kinex, wanting me to look at my bill and provide a meter number. I told them to stop messing about and that I wasn’t interested, then they just hung up on me. After that, I got another call from a Manchester number doing the exact same spiel.

I received a call from a chap named Harry Wilson, claiming to represent the Energy Metering Department of Corona. He mentioned something about a misleading 'rogue' bill that required cancellation and a refund. Interestingly, we had a similar conversation with the same individual around four months back - he followed exactly the same script, and we weren’t taken in at that time either. Just a heads-up, folks - it’s really wise to be cautious when it comes to sharing personal information!

I had a rather dubious call from a gentleman who identified himself as being from British Gas, claiming that we had been overcharged on our latest bill. However, when I pointed out that this was not the case, he seemed to have miscalculated the amount from our previous statement and began requesting our meter readings and account information.

In a flash, I googled the phone number, leading me to this site where I perused the previous reports before I could divulge any personal details.

I then informed him that I would reach out to British Gas directly for clarification, which seemed to upset him considerably. He retorted with, "Fine, go ahead and do all the legwork," before abruptly hanging up on me.

Definitely a SPAM ALERT!!!!!

Today, a call came through from someone claiming to represent NPower. She insisted that there had been an error with my recent meter reading, and advised me to disregard any bill that appeared unusually high, assuring me a credit would follow. She then asked for my latest reading and my meter number. I told her I would take down the information but would prefer to speak with NPower directly. She maintained that they were indeed working for NPower. I made it clear that I'd be reaching out to my Account Manager at NPower instead, and abruptly, she hung up on me.
