6 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were from Amazon, telling me my Amazon Prime would be automatically billed £79.00 soon. Then they asked me to press 1 or 2 to choose an option. I don’t even have Amazon Prime, and this isn’t the first time I've had a call like this from a different number. I just ended the call straight away - my advice is not to press any buttons, as I reckon that could let them sneak into your info somehow.Amazon6 yearskept gettin calls sayin i’d won a holiday or something. sounded like a load of rubbish from some call centre tryin to blag me.6 yearsGot a call from 01242 028 16 saying I've won the lottery and they wanted my bank details. I told them I never entered any lottery and then ended the call straight away.6 yearsGot two calls from them yesterday, one showed up as a Cheltenham number, and the other was from Manchester, 01616606785, something called CIC World.CheltenhamManchesterCIC World7 yearsI've been getting calls from this CIC lot on various numbers of mine non-stop.CIC7 yearsGot a call from 01242 902816 but no voicemail. They’re one of quite a few numbers popping up around the UK linked to PC Travel, which I think is connected to Club La Costa - a timeshare outfit that used to operate out of Milton Keynes. Honestly, I’d steer clear if I were you.PC TravelClub La CostaMilton Keynes7 yearsI got a call from someone who said she was Sophie from cic world. She kept asking for me but kept calling me mrs, which I'm not. When I told her she was wrong, she said I’d filled out some kind of online form saying I’d been married or living with someone for more than a year. That’s completely untrue so I’m pretty sure it was just a scam.CIC WorldSophie7 yearsGot a voicemail from someone who just said "eliss@cicworld[###]" and then stopped, since she began speaking before the recording kicked in. I’m expecting them to ring back soon. Hope they don’t!7 yearsThis number has been ringing my phone loads. My caller ID app flagged it as possible spam so I just ignore calls from anyone not saved in my contacts. I've ended up blocking it now.7 yearsNo matter how many times I asked them to quit and blocked the number, they just keep ringing me nonstop!7 yearsI saw a missed call from this number but when I tried calling back, it wouldn’t go through and my Samsung flagged it as a scam. Really weird!Samsung7 yearsI had no idea who it was, and since there was no voicemail, I just went ahead and blocked it.7 yearsNo idea who that was, didn’t sound familiar at all.7 yearsi dont really trust callers that dont bother to leave any message at all. usually, i just figure it's a scam or someone trying to push a sale on me. i rarely bother calling back if theres no message left. would be good to actually find out who they are and the reason for their call.7 yearsSomeone just rang me up and used my mum’s name, but she’s actually living abroad! Bit weird, right?7 yearsI got a call from a number I didn’t recognise, something to do with Cheltenham, so I just declined it. Don’t know anyone from there.Cheltenham7 yearsThey called asking for my bank info to sort out my internet bill. Pretty dodgy if you ask me.Submit Your Own Report (01242 802816)
