Somebody said they were from EE and when I asked how they got my number, they claimed it was from my husband which was a total lie. I kept pressing them to explain but they just ended the call eventually.

Got this awful call again. Some robo-caller using auto dialer, no actual person on the line. Probably one of those refund scams from some dodgy call centre. They pretend to be from Amazon Prime or BT broadband or EE, then go on about the police and “legal action” to scare ya. Just ignore it, block the number, and report it. Total waste of time. Sounds like it’s coming from an Indian call centre or something.

I just ignored the call and deleted it straight away. Seems like quite a few others reckon it’s some kind of scam.

Not sure who that was, but I've blocked the number now.

Got a missed call from a Cornwall number, 01208247521. Don’t recognise it at all. Seems like it might be a scam, so I’m just gonna block it now.

Didn't recognise the number, so it's on my block list now.

I was met with an uncomfortable silence before a rather intense woman’s voice broke through, unmistakably connected to some pre-recorded spiel. The caller didn’t bother to inquire about my identity - instead, she launched straight into a bizarre alert, claiming that my bank had flagged a transaction of more than a grand in California, followed by a £300 spend on some betting site today. She instructed me to press 1 to get further information. Naturally, I declined! It was painfully clear that this was nothing more than a scam.

I just ended the call as soon as it started ringing and went straight to voicemail on my landline.

I got a call on my landline around 9 in the morning on Saturday from a number I didn’t recognise, so I just ignored it and they didn’t leave any voicemail. Lately I’ve noticed loads of calls from similar numbers. After seeing what other people have said, I’d say if you get a call claiming to be from your bank, don’t answer right away. Instead, either hang up and ring them back using a number from the back of your card or wait till later to call, just to be on the safe side.

Got a call from 01208247521 claiming they were from Microsoft. Definitely a scam, don’t trust them!

Somebody rang me, said they were from Virginmedia tech support. They said there’d been issues with my internet service for the past "couple of weeks or so". I told them that wasn’t true at all and my broadband’s been fine. Then, just like that, they hung up on me.

He started by saying something about my computer, but I told him I don’t have one. Then he switched to saying it was my mobile, which I also don’t have. After that, he accused me of lying, but I told him I definitely know what gadgets I have. Then he just ended the call.

Got a robo call from my bank’s security, saying my account’s been used for gambling online over in California, and that I’d dropped £300 on Amazon recently. Obviously none of that is right.

Got a robo call supposedly from my bank’s security team, saying there were some strange charges going through to a gambling site in California, wanted me to confirm them. Didn't buy it for a second and just hung up. Total nonsense, definitely a scam, watch out!
