Someone called claiming to be from Virgin Media, was asking for my address. Sounded a bit fishy to me.

This chap had my entire name, both first and surname, along with my maiden name, and even my correct address. He boasted he was ringing on behalf of Scottish Power to inquire about my present gas and electricity bills. Naturally, I swiftly blocked the number!

I've never met anyone from Buckingham and I don't take calls out of the blue. If they ring me and don't say anything, they just get put straight on the block list. Probably just some scam artists.

Got a call where they asked if I was the owner of the number and then wanted to speak to someone I didn’t know. Felt sketchy, like one of those scams where they try to get you to say "yes" over the phone. Wouldn't be surprised if that's what was going on.

This person rang me up, called me by my name and asked if I was having a nice day. I wanted to know who she was and what was the point of the call. She kept on pressing me with questions, and when I told her to get straight to the point, she just ended the call. Bit dodgy if you ask me!
