I got a call from this number and when I picked up, it was just ringing on their end. The bloke who came on asked how he could help, I told him I had no idea since they called me first. He then said, "oh, you're calling us back?" I said no, they rang me and when I picked up, it was ringing, then he answered - but he sounded quite rude. Then the call just dropped. This kind of thing happens loads, even though I clearly explain what’s happened. Guess they didn’t want to hear I’m on the TPS list.

Received a call claiming to be from the lottery, but I can assure you it's not them, as they've not got my new number.

I don’t know who these people are, but they rang me twice this morning around 10:03. I picked up the phone on the second try but the person hung up straight away. Then, again, I got a call from the same number at 1:49pm, but the caller didn’t even stay on for a few seconds. Seems fishy to me, I’m thinking about marking it as Negative. Feels like there’s some sort of hidden agenda behind these calls.

I received a rather peculiar call from a chap who appeared to know my name and address. When I inquired how he obtained such information, he claimed I must have participated in some survey. According to him, I was fortunate enough to have a chance at winning a prize. He introduced himself as Waddington and mentioned he was based in Leeds. However, the whole conversation left me feeling quite uncomfortable, so I decided to cut it short. I've since blocked the number.

So I got this call about some lottery thing, right? They wanted me to give my bank info so they could send me the tickets. I wouldn’t agree to use my debit card or set up a direct debit to play their lotto. Ended up having to listen to them nagging about it for ages. Total scam, watch out!

They rang me yesterday and then gave me two calls today. The first time I got to reject the call with the red button, but the second time, the only option was to pick up, so it looked like I was the one calling back. I’m marking it as harassment since they kept calling several times within a short period, and I’ve seen others saying the same about them.

The person on the line claimed to be from a lottery group, offering a subscription at £12 a week or £54 each month via direct debit. They had my name and address, which made me quite uncomfortable. The thought of committing to that kind of recurring payment, especially when it would be deducted two weeks before any draw, didn’t sit right with me. I decided it was best to end the call.

Have you ever submitted your information for a freebie or taken part in an online contest? If so, brace yourself, as you’ll be bombarded with calls from all sorts of numbers. I once took a shot at a competition for entry tickets to Chester Zoo, and shortly thereafter I began receiving calls from this number along with several others. The caller claims I’ve won something, but then they throw in some deal about ten free lottery tickets. They rattle off their spiel at lightning speed and if you politely decline, they turn nasty and quite confrontational. Honestly, it's infuriating-best to just BLOCK, BLOCK, BLOCK!

Total scam alert! If you get dodgy calls or messages, report them straight away. Just search for ‘Action Fraud’ and head over to the ‘police.uk’ website. There’s a page for reporting phishing scams - make sure you read all the info there first. Then put in all the details about the scam to the police’s official system. This really helps them track how bad these scams are and hopefully stop more people getting ripped off.

WARNING! If you get calls like this, make sure you report it. Look up ‘action fraud’ on Google and head to the official ‘police.uk’ website. There you’ll find a section for ‘reporting phishing attempts’ - take a moment to read everything carefully. After that, enter all the details about the scam on their form. This is really important because it helps the police track how widespread these scams are. Don’t just ignore it!

Got a call from someone claiming to be with the lottery - they said they were gonna send me 10 free tickets for the draw on Wednesday 30th March. They even mentioned the jackpot amount like they had it all worked out. But that’s daft since there’s two draws before that date and the prize could be claimed early. Pretty sure it’s just a con.

Got a call from someone claiming to be with the lottery team, saying they'd send me 10 free tickets for the draw on Wednesday 30th March.

Yesterday, I accidentally picked up a call from 0121 726 1690 and the person on the other end tried to offer me free lottery tickets. I told them I’m not into gambling, but they insisted it wasn’t really gambling since the tickets were free. They kept rambling so I just hung up. Since then, I’ve had three more calls from the same number which I ignored. I don’t gamble at all, but they still waste their time pushing these free tickets. They didn’t ask for any bank info but somehow already knew my full name. Honestly, seems pretty dodgy. Best to just not pick up.
