4 yearsBeware of this number! It appears that someone is masquerading as Amazon and making unsolicited calls to unsuspecting individuals, likely with the intent to con you. If you happen to receive a call from them, exercise caution.Amazon4 yearsGot another call today from those crooks at wogs-r-us, the usual scammy nonsense as always!5 yearsI picked up this number, but there was just silence on the other end. So, I ended up blocking it straight away.7 yearsGot a call on my mobile earlier. I usually ignore numbers I don’t know. Pretty sure it was some sort of scam, so I’ve blocked it now.7 yearsThis number has been ringing me non-stop. The first time I actually answered, there was complete silence on the other end. The next call, I ignored it ‘cause I only pick up if I recognise the number. Then, just a couple of minutes later, they called again. Quite annoying really.7 yearsGot a call from a number I didn't recognise today, no message left, seems like one of those automated spam calls.7 yearsThis 0117 374 2549 number keeps ringing me, but when I pick up, it's just silence. I ended up blocking it, Brian.Brian7 yearsSince I didn't know the area code, I just ignored the call and they never bothered to leave a voicemail. Lately, I've been avoiding these calls because they usually end up being either annoying telemarketers or outright scams.7 yearsI received a call from a lady claiming to represent the John Lewis Pension Department, insisting I was eligible for a complimentary pension assessment. I decided to have a bit of fun and threw her off by providing some inaccurate details, jokingly asking if she wanted to know my bank details but quickly refraining from doing so. I requested that she send all communications via traditional mail, to which she promptly informed me that they only deal with emails. After that, she abruptly ended the call. - caller: 0117 374 2549John Lewis Pension Department7 yearsI received a call from this number earlier today, seemingly from Bristol. Then, around 2 o’clock, a chap named Stephen rang me back, only this time it was from an Edinburgh area. Sounded dodgy to me. He was chatting about pensions and savings. Definitely smells like a scammer. - caller: StephenBristolStephenEdinburgh7 yearsSpent ages on the phone with my mum who’s got dementia, trying to convince her she hadn’t done anything wrong. Took me nearly an hour to get through to her!7 yearsI picked up but they just hung up, now I've blocked the number after reading what's been said here.7 yearsjust got a call on my bt landline from someone pushing equity release. they said they’re from some marketing firm called active review in preston, which seemed odd cos the caller ID had a different area code. when i mentioned i’m on the tps list and don’t take cold calls, the woman said if i’d bought a mobile in the past 5 years i should know the deal from the t&cs! when i asked for their office address, she flat out wouldn’t tell me. feels dodgy to me, like they’re targeting people who might be easy to fool.Active ReviewPreston7 yearsSome lady named Serena rang me up, claiming I could borrow cash against my house and asked if I knew about equity release. When I told her I was just renting, she quickly ended the call.Serena7 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from Amazon Prime trying to stop a payment. Hilarious since I’ve never even had Amazon Prime! Definitely a scam, no doubt about it.Amazon Prime7 yearsGot a robo call pretending to be from Amazon, just hang up and block them.7 yearsOver the past couple of days, I've gotten three calls from what seems to be a scammer trying to pass off as Amazon Prime. Don’t be fooled by it. They keep warning me that I’ll be charged 39.99 for my Amazon Prime membership (never mentioning any currency) unless I press "1" to talk to an account manager. From what I can tell, pressing that '1' probably links you to some premium rate line that charges really high per minute fees. I didn’t risk it, so I never pressed anything.Amazon Prime7 yearsA few days back, our landline buzzed with a call claiming to be from Amazon. My husband picked up but, hearing it was one of those recorded messages, he just ended the call straight away. Thankfully, he’s not aware of any bank info or anything like that, so even if it was dodgy, he couldn’t have shared anything important. I made sure to tell him that Amazon usually wouldn’t ring us on our landline like that, so it was pretty clear it was some kind of scam.Amazon7 yearsI got a call a few months back from a number that seemed to be linked to some dodgy dealings involving ex-staff selling info illegally after some event in London, must’ve been around August. The caller hung up just after a few seconds, pretty weird. Had a similar number ring me before but nothing like this one.City of London7 yearsPicked up the call but they just ended it straight away.7 yearsThere was a missed call from this number, and although my answerphone showed a message was recorded, there wasn’t anything actually left, so I'm clueless about who called.Submit Your Own Report (0117 374 2549)
