this lady from some place called "telephone preference management" phoned me, saying she’s checking if i wanted to upgrade my tps to stop international calls. she told me her number wasn’t international but just computer generated. funny thing, she had two different names linked to my number in her system. she got a bit annoyed when i said no to the “upgrade” and then told me if i didn’t want it, she’d take my number off entirely, so i’d have no block on overseas calls whatsoever. quite odd really.

Got a call from a bloke named Peter who sounded Asian. He said he was from TPS and already seemed to know loads about me, trying to get even more info. I just ended the call straight away!

Just got a call from this number a bit ago, the bloke said he was from the TPS or something. He asked if I was still getting unwanted calls, I said yeah, but I block most of them. Then he wanted to check my name and postcode, which didn’t seem suspicious at first. After that he asked if I was under 75, I told him no. He also asked if I pay my phone bills by direct debit. He didn’t ask for any more info so I hung up. Later I looked up the number and turns out it’s dodgy. I thought he might be from BT since their call centres have loads of Asian staff, but obviously not.

this woman with an asian accent rang me saying she was from tps and started asking questions. I hung up but she rang straight back again. I said I needed to make sure it wasn’t some kind of scam before talking and then ended the call again.

Got a call where they were trying to get my bank details, felt really fishy to me. Avoided sharing anything, sounded like a scam. Definitely not giving out that info to random numbers!

I got a call from this number earlier today, but the person on the other end wasn’t really listening. I heard some noise in the background, but when I tried to get their attention, they just didn’t reply and ended up hanging up. Considering what’s been noted before about this number, I’ve marked it as risky.

Got a call from this Asian lady saying she was setting up some call blocking service and needed to verify my info. Somehow she already knew my name and postcode. I just told her no and quickly ended the call.

They're been ringing me a couple of times recently, just this morning again. The woman on the line sounded Indian and said she was from the TPS, trying to squeeze info out of me. It was really difficult to follow what she was saying, but I’m sure these scammers will keep changing numbers and calling back.
