I heard a rumour that you were in a bit of a mishap lately? I insisted I’ve never been behind the wheel of a car, so that couldn't possibly be right! When I inquired how they got that information, they just cut the line. Quite baffling, to say the least!

Got a call from 0118 328 2665 but didn’t pick up. No message left or anything. When I tried ringing back, it just hangs up straight away. I don’t recognise the number at all and it’s odd because my number is pretty new. It’s blocked now just in case.

This has gotta be some kinda hack, likely from the internet provider’s side, feels like someone’s keeping tabs on you, almost like a younger sibling tugging your sleeve 'cause you’re not paying attention. Mine rings every few days too, sounds like a serious attachment problem if you ask me, maybe even heading into full-on creepy territory, could be in their genes or whatever, but honestly, who really wants to figure it out?

Accident claims company calling. Just answer 'yes' when the automated message asks, then hold on until a real person comes on, and you can tell them where to go.

Got a call from a woman with an English accent asking if I’d been in an accident that wasn’t my fault. I haven’t, obviously. How on earth did they find my number? This kind of pestering really gets on my nerves!

Robocall, just hung up straight away.

I didn’t pick up. None of my contacts have a Reading area code. Seeing what others have said, this looks like a risky scam to me.

Spent like three hours chatting with them about my laptop getting hacked. They kept pushing me to cough up 199 quid to fix the issue.

WATCH OUT ITS A TOTAL RIP OFF they told me my computer was messed up then took over and tried to charge me loads to fix it, they start with a small fee but end up trying to steal all your money if you hand over info. I got caught but managed to get my cash back through western union.

0118 3282665 called me saying they were from Microsoft. A woman with an Asian accent told me my computer had been hacked. She said she had my security number and warned that if I didn’t let her sort it out, my computer would get blocked. I actually got a call from the same woman before, on 6th Nov, but that number was 0114 3601694.

Some bloke said he was from Microsoft, told me my computer was hacked and needed to be blocked. When I asked him which computer and for his info to check what scam he was running, he just cut me off. He said his name was Austin Edwards, but his accent was definitely Indian, which didn’t match the name at all. I really worry that older folks or people who aren’t so tech-savvy might fall for this rubbish.
