I was just relaxing in my room when this number popped up on my phone. Didn’t think much of it at first, but then outta nowhere MatPat shows up and starts explaining some mad theory about, well, you know, taking it in the rear. He then went ahead and got a bit hands-on. I was totally baffled but not gonna lie, it was kinda fun. After that, he went on about what happens after, you know, finishing inside someone and then just bounced. Now every time I see this number, I brace myself for whatever wild “theory” he’s got lined up next.

I managed to keep a gentleman on the line for a fair old while-about ten minutes, if my memory serves me right. He had quite the Asian accent and believed I was booting up my computer. In truth, I was busy multitasking: brushing my teeth, putting some food down for the cat, and rescuing a cake from the oven! Once I’d had my fill of the charade, I decided to end the conversation. Not long after, he rang again, but my husband picked up this time and straight away asked for the name of his company. At that point, the caller just hung up.

Received a rather peculiar phone call regarding an accident I supposedly had. When I informed the caller that I hadn’t been involved in any incident, the conversation seamlessly shifted to my so-called house insurance. To which I replied that I didn’t have such a thing either. Following that, he casually mentioned it was merely a survey and promised I’d receive a follow-up call from a supervisor within the hour. Upon expressing my disinterest, he threatened me with a £500 fine for not participating in this 'no obligation' survey. I mentioned I had recorded our chat and that I intended to report it to the police. At that point, he hastily wrapped up the call. Quite the experience!

They called and my partner asked them to ring back in half an hour to talk to me. When they did, it was a man claiming to be from Windows, saying my server was infected with loads of viruses that would damage my PC. I was curious what he wanted, so I let him continue. He told me to open my 'event viewer' and read out what it showed. I said no and hung up, but later had a look myself. Nothing wrong with my computer at all.

Now, as much as I’d love to be a tech wizard, I’m really far from it, so I just said I wasn’t available and asked him to ring me another time.

01212121212 Creative/Lifestyle. Just a heads up; there's always someone funding these calls. A while ago, I agreed to answer some questions over the phone. I gave made-up replies to all of them.

One exception was a major UK charity, who rudely said I was wasting their time and cash. Maybe if more of us did this, their funds would run dry.

For the past three weeks, this number has been incessantly ringing me, sometimes up to six times a day. I’ve noticed others have shared similar experiences. When I pick up, it’s just dead air, until an Indian gentleman comes on, asking to verify my address and postcode along with a couple of questions. I refuse to engage with him, and to be honest, I've reached my wits' end. I may have let a few expletives slip and told him to shove off. Though he hangs up fairly swiftly, my irritation has only escalated with each call. I’m fed up with these persistent disturbances from whoever it is on the other end. Is there any way to get this nonsense to stop? I'm resigned to the fact that another call will likely come through today.

I had the misfortune of receiving six calls from this number today - each time, when I attempted to respond, there was silence. Yesterday was no better; I tried four times and ended up speaking to a chap with an Indian accent who claimed to be from the same line. Despite my polite request for my number to be taken off their list, as I am disabled and find this quite overwhelming, he bluntly told me he wouldn’t comply. It’s incredibly distressing, to the point where I’ve disconnected my home phone entirely to avoid their incessant calls. They seem to be targeting someone with a name that's somewhat similar to mine, yet have offered no clarity on who they are or their intentions. Be advised, they are relentless in their pursuit to extract information from you, but I stood firm and refused to divulge my identity.

I've never seen telephone scammers this persistent before. A BIG TIP OFF is if you hang up on them, they'll call you again and again since scam call centres, even overseas in places like Bangladesh, have the resources for that. These callers are the ones gathering leads for the actual scam operations. Don't expect much help from Action Fraud if you fall victim; they mostly just collect info. Best of luck out there.
