1 monthMy landline rang, so I picked up, and this bloke with an Asian accent began trying to push some kind of insurance for home appliances. He didn’t mention which company he was with or anything. I just said I’m not interested and ended the call.1 monthGot a voicemail saying it was from my bank about someone trying to take £170 from my account. It said if I want to sort it out, press 1 or 2 to chat with an adviser.

Can't say I'm surprised!1 monthMy landline just rang, which is pretty unusual these days, so I immediately thought it might be one of those annoying scam calls.

When I checked the number online, loads of folks have marked it as spam or something close to it.1 monthMy phone buzzed, but just as my answer machine started, the caller cut off.1 monthI got a call quite early, about half past eight in the morning. Answered with a simple "Yes?" and the person on the other end, who sounded like he had an Indian or maybe East Asian accent, asked if I was the man of the house. Honestly, I just told him to get lost and hung up straight away.1 monthI just let it go to voicemail, hoped for a message but got nothing except some heavy breathing on the other end.
