Got a call from a guy claiming to be Chris with State Protection Services talking about new government laws. I told him straight up, "You're a scammer, and I'm on the TPS list." His response was just, "Alright, have a good day." Honestly, best to just ignore calls like this.

Just got a call from some bloke saying he was from a company in Dorset. He was talking about medical gear I might get and said he could see if I qualified. I asked him like three times if it was an NHS thing but he kept silent, so I hung up. Watch out for this one!

Got a call claiming that my boiler cover was being transferred to their firm. The recording was pretty smart, leaving pauses so you'd think you could chat back. Even when I told him he was a con artist, his voice stayed just as calm and steady.

Got a call on my landline from some pushy double glazing sales bloke called 'Sam'. He kept going on about a supposed government-backed window replacement scrappage deal. Really persistent chap, but it smelled like a total scam to me. Classic old school double glazing sales tactic!

Got a call out the blue about some window replacement thing. Honestly, we'd never come across them before, and we’re on the telephone preference list, so really shouldn't have been bothered by that call.
