Cheers to all who've had to deal with this caller or number - you’ve helped me figure out what to do next, so I’ll be blocking them straight away! They called me twice now, and normally I wouldn’t bother calling back unfamiliar numbers, but a quick look on "who-called-me" cleared up my doubts. Honestly, where would we be without sites like that and everyone sharing their experiences? Big thanks to everyone who’s shared, much appreciated!

These lot claimed to be from Virgin Media and ended up taking £1400 straight off my bank account. Don’t even bother chatting to them, just hang up right away. They’re really dodgy, speak with an Asian accent and seem to be operating out of Scotland. The number they called from was 01290420232. Stay well clear of these scammers!

This number kept calling me for about 15 minutes straight, I didn’t recognise it so I just ignored it.

Got a call that was completely quiet, no one on the other end. Quite annoying really.

Today I got a call from a woman saying she worked for my phone provider. She told me there were big issues with my router and my security might be at risk. She gave me a customer ID number and told me to check it on my computer. She asked some simple questions but when I didn’t give her any info, she just ended the call. I then phoned my phone company and they said they hadn’t called me at all. They told me if I get a call like this again, I should just hang up and call them straight away to check. If you get a call like this, don’t give out any details!

today this number rang me up claiming to be from bt's tech support, saying there were problems with my broadband router. they wanted me to carry out some checks on my laptop, but the longer the call went on, the more fishy it seemed. when they told me to download some software from a website, i said no and they instantly ended the call. afterwards i called bt, and they confirmed they hadn’t contacted me at all. they gave me the number 1572 to block this number from my landline. definitely a scam - nearly got caught out!

Got a call from someone saying she was Lisa from BT, said my internet was at risk and I had to turn on my gadgets so they could fix it fast. When I asked a few questions she just cut me off. Quite dodgy if you ask me.

At first I thought this number was from Scotland, but when I checked it on Google, it showed it was actually from somewhere in Asia. Seems like the latest scam tactic is to use loads of UK-related numbers to trick people. In my experience, if they’re calling, they’re probably after something - usually cash. The last time I got a call like this, they claimed to be from Microsoft. Bit hard to believe though, since my computer’s at the office, not at home.
