Got a call that seemed like a lottery scam. I reckon it’s because I completed one of those “Secure” forms after being told I’d won a £500 voucher for Asda. Seriously, don’t be fooled by these tricks - they’ve probably got loads of your info already and just want to nick your bank details next. Watch out, it’s all about stealing your identity.

Got a call from this number, they just said hi and then hung up straight away. Checked it out online and saw a lot of people had left warnings, so I’ve blocked it now.

I rang the number back and straight away it was clear they had all my info - name, address, even my postcode! I was really surprised they knew so much about me. They claimed to be from the national lottery and said I’d won three lucky dips, and they’d send them to my house. Thing is, I don’t even play the lottery!

They ring me up daily, it's getting a bit much now.

Left it ringing, no reply. Could be a robocall?

I got a call from a Birmingham number and had no clue who it was or what they were about, so I just blocked it straight away.

I just didn’t pick up. Maybe it's one of those soak calls?

I didn't pick up, could it have been a spam call?

Got a call from someone claiming to be with the National Lottery, saying I’d been chosen to get 10 free lottery tickets and that I could enter the lottery for 3 months, playing 260 lines at 5p a go. That doesn’t sound right at all - the charity commission rules don’t let anyone get an unfair edge in lotteries! Seems like a right con to me and definitely something that should be blocked.

This number keeps phoning me but I never pick up. It only rings for a few seconds, which makes me suspect it's a scam.

I had a rather dubious phone call earlier, where the caller insisted I send through ten entries for a lottery taking place this Wednesday. The unsettling part? They seemed to already know my address! Is this some sort of con? Am I in jeopardy for having confirmed where I live?

I just let it ring out since my phone flagged it as a spam number.

I keep receiving around four nuisance calls daily. It's quite infuriating! They ring up, ask for my name, and then promptly disconnect. Such a waste of time!

A woman rang me, saying she was from Direct Energy, and insisted she could help me save a considerable amount on my energy bills. I’d steer clear of this one! She didn’t come across as trustworthy at all.

Got a call telling me I’d won some lottery tickets and they were going to send them straight to my house. They obviously already knew my name and where I live.

Got a call from 01212278257, it just rings twice and then cuts off. I didn’t bother ringing back cos I reckon it might redirect to some expensive number. Seems like a spam or scam call to me, quite annoying.

Kept calling me and just cutting out, so I blocked it 😜

Got a call today from a number that popped up as a telemarketer, so I picked up. They just ended the call straightaway. They rang me another time after that, so I've gone ahead and blocked the number now.

They keep ringing me even though I've got it blocked. Might be connected to 08000338005 - definitely one of those scam numbers.

I got a call from someone claiming to be with Direct Energy, saying I could save around £400 on my gas and electricity. I told them I wasn’t interested and ended the call. Since I’m on the TPS list, I’m not sure why they rang me in the first place. Honestly, I’d steer clear of them.

I called this number back, told whoever answered that I wasn’t interested and to quit calling me about 20 times a day. The bloke just laughed and didn’t take me seriously at all.
