2 yearsI received a rather dubious call today, claiming to discuss some charges on a card and requesting verification. It's funny, as I've had similar calls in the past, usually around lunchtime. Quite the nuisance, really!2 yearsGot a call from 01246812485 and straight away it felt off. It was one of those automated messages saying there were unauthorised charges on my card for about £600 and £300. They said something about Amazon too. I couldn't help but ask, which bank or company would send a recorded message like that anyway? Seemed really fishy to me.Amazon3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from Visa, telling me my card had been charged £500 on Amazon. They asked me to press 1 to speak with a rep but I just hung up straight away.VisaAmazon3 yearsGot a robocall saying my card was used for £500 on Amazon or eBay.

Pretty sure it was a scam.3 yearsSuch a bunch of con artists!3 yearsFAKE BANK SCAM - CLEARLY NOT A LEGITIMATE BANK. When is Ofcom gonna take action against the folks who are basically "leasing" these numbers out? They really ought to be held accountable if people get scammed and lose money.

Every time it’s the same spiel and always the same call charges. I reckon I’ve spent well over £100,000 by now. They’re just messing about, wasting both their cash and effort. Honestly, no idea how these con artists even get hold of phone numbers. Meanwhile, I have to struggle to find a number when I need one. It’s high time companies like BT stopped handing out numbers to scammers. There really should be some sort of group that you can report these calls to, so the numbers get blocked for good.BT3 yearsGot a call claiming my card was charged twice for purchases I didn’t make.

The first came from a different number but with exactly the same recorded message. These scammers are pretty crafty. Watch out!Amazon3 yearsGot a call claiming to be from my bank’s security team.
