I got a call like that as well, saying I was picked for a holiday prize. I told them I never did any survey, then they started listing all my personal info which I had to admit was right. I was suspicious and wanted more details to maybe report them, but they said I’d have to speak to someone else about that. Just ignore these calls! If anyone knows how to report these scammers, please share here so others can be warned too.

Total scam, just a waste of time.

Got a call today asking me to verify info about me and my partner in some survey. I never took any survey and my partner has passed away. Told them to get lost, honestly just stop bothering me!

Nobody said a word. Just ended up blocking the number.

Oh joy, another 'Complimentary Getaway'! Here we go again with the timeshare nonsense rearing its head.

This number keeps ringing me, so I've blocked it now! What really worried me was not being able to call it back. Wouldn't recommend picking up.

Been getting loads of annoying calls from this number lately - I’ve been ignoring them up to now. Good thing I checked these reviews, definitely gonna block it next.

Totally a scam. I asked where they were calling from and they said Southend, Essex. But my phone showed Cheltenham on the call details. Definitely dodgy.

They keep ringing up asking for someone called Jessica Little. Just worked out it’s a scam, tho they did manage to confirm the number they dialled is legit. Honestly, these scammers deserve a proper public shaming!

Some bloke called me saying I'd done a survey a bit back and started asking if me and my partner were both in our thirties. I cut him off straight away cos I reckon it's one of those scams. No way am I hanging about - gonna block that number now.

Got a call from CLC saying I’d finished my offers, which might be true, but then they started asking loads of personal info - felt really sketchy. I told them no way I’m giving that out. They honestly should be ashamed of themselves.

Like some others here, I got a phone call saying it was a follow-up for a survey I supposedly did (which, annoyingly, I did) and they told me I’d won a stay at several holiday resorts. They spoke like they knew their holiday stuff and I ended up answering loads of questions. Now I really wish I hadn’t because it’s clear they’re running a scam. Who do we report this to and how should we go about it?

Got a phone call saying I'd done a survey with My Offers and they wanted to verify my info because I'd won something. I told them to remove me from their list since I never did any survey. The person said that was okay and wished me a good day. I've flagged it as annoying, but they weren't aggressive or impolite. Still, I'm pretty sure it's some kind of scam.

Got a call saying I won a holiday stay in Florida, but they asked loads of stuff like my age, if I’m married, and how much we earn as a family. Looking back, I shouldn’t have given out that info. Feels like it was some dodgy scam to me.

Not sure who it was. I saw a missed call from this number and when I tried ringing them back, it just goes straight to silence and then hangs up.

Some lady told me she was doing a survey and said she worked for the sea life centre. Bit odd if you ask me.
