I didn't pick up since the call showed as possible spam. No voicemail was left either, so I just blocked the number straight away.

Got a call from a guy named Dave claiming he was with BT and said my computer was slow. I cut him off before he could explain because I told him I used to work at BT myself. As soon as I said that, he just hung up. Pretty sure it was a scam.

Got a call from this Indian lady in a loud call centre, and her English was really bad. She claimed she worked for some "card machine company." Pretty clear it was a scam, so I wouldn’t even bother picking up.

I picked up the call but no one spoke on the other end. From what I’ve read in other comments, this might be some kinda scam.

01248556538 - They initially said they were from some "Card Machine Company". When I told them we don’t have card machines at all, they suddenly switched and said they were with "British Gas". Totally sounds like a scam to me.

They rang our number which we dont really use anymore, so I guess they were on some kind of auto dial thing. Got stuck in a phone menu loop for like half a minute.

The guy claimed he was calling from the Refer Team. I just said thanks and ended the call.

This bloke kept ringing me up loads, said he was from British Gas and wanted details about my meter, going on about it might be faulty. He just wouldn’t quit, wouldn’t accept my ‘no’. I had to end the call eventually. Seriously, avoid these people!

Got a call about renewing a domain name, but the guy was really hard to understand because there was loads of noise in the background. When I said I didn’t want to renew, he started pushing me to change my mind.
