I got a call claiming to be from sky internet, even tho I haven't had their service in ages. They somehow knew all my info tho. I hung up and put the number on block straight away.

Got a call about broadband and they already had all my info, so I just ended the call and blocked the number straight away.

Somebody rang claiming to be from Virgin / O2, saying my SIM was about to get blocked because it was expiring. They wanted my email address. When I asked what email they had on file, they just kept pressing me for mine. I told them I wasn’t going to give it since all they’d told me was the last 4 digits of the number they called me on. I ended up hanging up and then overheard them say “your SIM card will be blocked.” Pretty sure it was a phishing scam.

Got a call supposedly from O2 about my SIM, but I don’t even use O2. I’ve told the TPS about it loads of times already.

Got a call about a 40% off deal on phone bills, sounded suspicious. They kept pushing for my details but I said no thanks right away. Definitely felt like a scam to me.

I got a call saying it was from O2, warning me that my SIM would expire in just three days. Even though I’m with O2, I knew that wasn’t right because my SIM isn’t due to expire anytime soon. So I just ended the call and blocked the number straight away.

I got a call from a Birmingham number ending with 017, which I didn’t recognise at all since I don't have any contacts there. So I just blocked it straight away and didn’t pick up.

Got a call from someone claiming my 02 SIM was about to be blocked. I told her I actually use giffgaff, not 02. Then she said she’d transfer me to some other team to sort it out. I called her out for being a scammer and told her to find a real job. Total con! Best thing is to just block the number and don’t bother answering.

Utterly fraudulent! They posed as representatives from Virgin Media, but I had my suspicions from the get-go.

Someone called pretending to be from O2, saying they'd block my SIM if I didn't confirm some details. Suspicious much? Definitely a scammer trying their luck.

Got a call from someone saying they’re from O2 about switching sim contracts, but I’m not even with O2. Sounds like a total scam to me, watch out - they were probably fishing for personal details.

Someone rang me pretending to be from Virgin Media or maybe O2, sounded really legit. They said my SIM would be blocked in a few days if I didn’t do something. Pretty sure it was just a con.
