Someone called about loft insulation and when I said I didn’t have a loft, they just ended the call straight away. Total scam if you ask me.

This number keeps calling me multiple times a day, but as soon as I pick up, they just hang up straight away. Not sure who it is.

Got this call earlier, and when I picked up, it was dead air on the other end. Feels like a right dodgy situation, if you ask me. It's a bit unsettling when they choose not to say anything. Definitely gives off a strong whiff of a scam!

Loft insulation inquiry They wanted to chat with the property owner I let them know I was underage and they promptly ended the call! The smartest move is to claim you're merely 16, and they must take you off their contact list since they're not allowed to reach out to minors. Even if you sound grown-up with a deep voice, just stick to that story! 😂

Both times I missed the call, no chance to pick up, and there wasn’t any voicemail left. I’m on the TPS, so I reckon it’s fair to just block the number.

I got two calls from people who sounded Asian, claiming they were ringing from an insurance firm. They said my savings rate was dropping again this year. It was obviously a scam - the person sticking to a script and couldn’t answer anything I asked about their company. I told them both nicely to maybe consider finding a real job instead.

This number keeps ringing us without fail. It's clearly a call centre. We’ve gotten wise to it now and tend to ignore their calls. On occasions when we did answer, we specifically requested that our ex-directory number be removed from their database. It appears that if you deviate from their pre-set script, they’re utterly clueless about how to assist.

Got a call from this number earlier - came up as a blackpool number. Picked up but no one spoke. After about 5 seconds, the call was ended by whoever was on the other side. Bit odd.

Someone rang up and knew my name straight away, started going on about insulating my house. I told her it was obviously a con but I just let her keep blabbing. It sounded like yet another woman with an Indian accent pretending her name was some proper English one!

Got a call from someone with a funny accent claiming to do an insulation survey. They even said my name, which was a bit creepy. I told them I wasn’t interested and they just cut the call right away. Definitely seemed like a dodgy scam, probably using a fake phone number.

What a con! They claim to represent TalkTalk, BT, and Sky at various points during the call. They try to frighten you by saying that someone else is using your IP address and insist that immediate action is necessary.

I received a rather odd phone call from a woman with an Asian accent claiming that my internet had been compromised. She proceeded to ask me to input a specific sequence of letters into my computer. Quite amusingly, I had encountered a similar situation just a few weeks prior, so I was well prepared. When she inquired about what I'd entered, I firmly responded, "This is a scam, you should disconnect right now!" Then she asked me to hit the Windows key, completely unaware that my laptop is a Google device and lacks such a feature. Her confusion was quite priceless! It seems this dodgy operation is linked to Blackpool, so surely the authorities could track them down fairly easily, wouldn't you agree? Remember to stay vigilant - it's best to be suspicious of every unknown call you receive. Treat them all as potential scams, and you’ll be one step ahead.

I received a call earlier today from this number. An Indian-sounding lady claimed to represent Talk Talk, alerting me that my devices were allegedly under attack by hackers. I was completely baffled and asked her to clarify. Suddenly, a man jumped in, introducing himself as a supervisor. At that point, I had enough and just hung up.

I finally decided to pick up the call, reasoning that it seemed legitimate due to the U.K. area code, even though it wasn’t one I recognised from the south east. As soon as I answered, I had my doubts about it being a foreign scam. I stayed silent, expecting someone to greet me, but there was nothing but an awkward pause. When I eventually spoke, still no response. We’re ex-directory and never hand out our number, which makes me think they’re either using auto-diallers or somehow filching info from the phone provider.

Right from the start I could tell it was a scam, as there was this weird pause of like two seconds before anyone spoke. Then some Asian voice kept repeating “hello” but I just ignored it and let the call drop. My number’s ex-directory and on the TPS register, so I shouldn’t be getting calls like this at all. Honestly, these scammers need to be stopped properly - they’re honestly some of the worst people out there. It’s about time the authorities got tough on them.

No sooner had I picked up the phone than I sensed it was a dodgy call, what with the two seconds of silence right off the bat. An individual with an Asian accent kept repeating “hello,” but I chose to remain silent, allowing the call to resolve itself. My number is private and on the telephone preference service list, so these blokes have absolutely no business contacting me. It’s long overdue that these con artists face stringent action and are held accountable; they truly rank among the most despicable individuals imaginable.

The moment I picked up, I realised I was on the receiving end of a scam call; there was a bizarre pause for a couple of seconds that gave it away immediately. An individual with an Asian accent started repeating “hello”, but I held my tongue and let the call play out. My number isn’t in the directory and is registered with the Telephone Preference Service, so these fraudsters have absolutely no business harassing me. It’s about time that we see some serious action taken against these scammers and they face the consequences of their underhanded tactics. They're truly among the lowest of the low.

I received a call from an Asian lady purporting to be with Talk Talk. She mentioned that there was a potential attempt to access my internet from overseas. She started rambling about the various coloured lights on my router-if only she could see it, there’s merely a single light! I decided to hang up, but lo and behold, they proceeded to ring me four additional times. Each time, my answering machine picked up, yet, strangely, not a single message was left. Quite clearly a scam, if you ask me!
