01212404566 called me earlier today, the number seemed dodgy so I let my answering machine pick it up. It played a recorded voice saying £300 would be taken from my bank for Amazon Prime, and another £1,000 later on. It told me to press 1 to cancel and speak to someone. I don’t have Amazon Prime but loads of folks do, and this is really scary, especially for older people. I’m 65 and can still spot a scam a mile off. This kind of thing really ought to be stopped!!

I received a phone call on my landline at half nine this morning. A woman on the line claimed that I was owed £119 due to being overcharged for some domestic services. She promptly requested my bank information, but I firmly declined. She was quite pushy about it. What struck me as rather alarming was that she had my phone number, name, and even my email address. When I suggested she simply send a cheque, she claimed she couldn’t do so because of the pandemic restrictions. At that point, I decided to hang up. It definitely felt like I was speaking to a call centre. Now, I can’t shake off the feeling of unease-how did they know so much about me? I really hope this isn’t some sort of scam.

We received a rather dubious call from someone claiming that our computer was infected with corrupt files and that it was sending error messages to Microsoft. When we inquired further, it became clear that this was a rather shady phone call, with these individuals likely after personal information regarding our computer.

I received a rather peculiar call from a number starting with 01212, but the digits just seemed to stop there. The person on the other end asked for me by name, but as soon as I said I wasn't available, they hung up promptly. Quite odd, I must say! What’s more baffling is that 01212 alone isn't a proper telephone number, so it shouldn't be displayed through caller ID or even when using 1471. It leads me to wonder if there's some dodgy business going on, perhaps someone's tinkering with the phone system to hide their complete number, or maybe it's just a blunder on the part of the telecommunication provider during the line's setup. Either way, it's a right puzzle!

Absolutely not. The number in question was 01212447012. We attempted to return the call and were met with silence. Shortly after, we realised that the caller had then chosen to withhold their number.

Received a call from a rather peculiar number. The line was answered by a machine, and the only noise that cut through the silence was what sounded like a single breath, hinting that someone might be on the other end, just listening quietly. I tried the 1471 service and it flashed back the number 012 124 345 290 - presented in threes, mind you. Curious as I am, I attempted to return the call, only to find the line was dead! I swear, the number had one extra digit than what you'd typically expect. I double-checked, as I wanted to be sure I hadn’t misread it. Anyone know who might be behind this?

This particular number has been persistently ringing our home phone, my mobile, and even my husband's mobile. It’s become dreadfully annoying, as there's never anyone on the other end when I answer, nor do I get a response when I try calling back the number 01212137990.

We've received three calls from the number 01212700631, but every time we pick up, there's nobody on the other end. The line cuts off abruptly. We tried calling 1471 to retrieve the number, and it showed up as the one stated above. This has raised some alarm bells for us. Could anyone offer some assistance on this matter?

We've experienced the same situation on two occasions since the weekend, receiving calls from that very number you mentioned. Quite peculiar, indeed!

I chose to overlook this entirely.

Received a call from this number at half-past three in the morning. There was a bit of background chatter, but then the connection just dropped. The night prior, we had a call from someone claiming to be from Microsoft, situated in Mumbai. They sounded all too serious and a tad menacing, eager to know if we were using a laptop or desktop. I told them to take a hike. So, we’re guessing that this early morning call is probably linked to that.
