6 yearsGot a missed call from this number on my phone, no idea who it is. A while back, the same sort of call came through on our home phone - some scammer saying they could sort out a tax refund for me. Best just to ignore and block.7 yearsSome so called "Dave" with an Asian accent was on the line, pretending to be with Openreach.
