Got a voicemail saying £300 was going to be taken from my Visa for some Chinese charity. They told me to call them back and gave options, warning my card would be blocked if I didn’t get in touch. Definitely sounded dodgy, so I just ignored it.

I got a rather dubious call from this number concerning a supposed breach of my credit card. They wanted me to stay on the line to chat with an advisor. Curiosity got the better of me, so I rang back the following day, only to be told, "Apologies, but this number isn't linked to any medical practice!" Quite suspect, if you ask me.
