4 yearsI just put the phone down as soon as I picked up.4 yearsI got a call from 0121 681 3300 and 01279 906017 where the caller said HMRC were looking into me for tax fraud. Problem is, I work full-time and all my tax is sorted straight from my paycheck anyway. Luckily, I checked this site first and found out these numbers were dodgy. When I told them I knew something wasn’t right, they just hung up on me.HMRC4 yearsBoth of em got merp’d too.Blimey4 yearsas soon as they said "merp" they just dropped the call on me right away.4 yearsLooks like another utility company scam trying to trick people.

The location appears to be Bishop's Stortford.Bishop 'Stortford4 yearsReceived a call purporting to be from Three, my mobile network. They inquired whether I was using an iPhone or a Samsung. I thought it a bit odd since surely, if they were truly Three, they'd already have my details. The caller's English was rather subpar, which made me even more suspicious, so I decided to cut the conversation short and hang up.

Once I mentioned that I wasn't actually an O2 customer, the person on the line began to describe my appearance in quite an alarming way. They then indicated they were seeking a "friendship," which struck me as most peculiar. When I threatened to contact the police, their response was shockingly indifferent, stating, "I don't care." The entire exchange left me feeling quite uneasy. I'd strongly recommend steering clear of this number!4 yearsThe call ended abruptly without a word uttered.4 yearsGot a call from someone saying they're from O2 and that my phone service has been disconnected.

I found myself in a bit of a tricky situation when they attempted to upsell me on an upgrade, despite the fact that I’ve only had my current phone for under a year. Out of sheer curiosity, I added them to a call with Carphone Warehouse, and, lo and behold, it turned out these folks were nothing more than scammers operating out of India. They clearly had no ties to my actual provider, as they were asking for details about my contract duration and start date, which a legitimate representative would know right off the bat.
