Got a call from this number and almost got tricked, but managed to figure out it was dodgy just in time. Someone needs to track down whoever’s running this scam and get them into trouble.

Got a call saying I’d get my money back for a washing machine I bought ages ago, sounded dodgy to me. Definitely a scam.

It's quite evident this was a fraudulent call. They kicked things off by claiming a second payment to Amazon had been deducted from my account, then proceeded to mention a hefty charge of over £1000 made from my credit card abroad. Interestingly, they never specified whose Amazon account they were referencing, nor did they identify which credit card was allegedly used. If I disputed this, they encouraged me to dial 1 for advice and assistance. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!
