Got a call today from this number, first time they said they were with BT and claimed there was a problem with my internet. I don’t even use BT. Then they rang again saying the same thing and told me to turn on my computer so they could "fix" my internet issues. Definitely a scam.

This number rang me earlier today and the bloke said he was calling from Nationwide, asking if I was satisfied with their card services. He even knew my name and postcode, but I don’t even have an account with Nationwide. The caller was an Asian guy asking loads of questions. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.

Some bloke with a weird foreign accent said he was ringing from Nationwide. When I asked him what it was about, he got really rude and called me an idiot just because I wouldn’t tell him my name! Lovely! Having worked for Nationwide before, I know they’d never behave like that on a real call - so it’s gotta be a scam! NEVER share your personal info with calls like this!

Got a call from an Asian guy asking about my life insurance with Aviva, said they wanted to update my details. I don't have any Aviva life cover, so I figured he was trying to scam me! I kept asking who he was but all he did was keep firing questions at me, so I just ended the call. Haven't had any calls from that number since. Definitely blocking it now.

From what folks have mentioned about this number, I picked up but kept quiet. It’s like it’s waiting for someone to talk before it does anything, so it just ended the call. Looks like one of those robotic calls. Honestly, these should be illegal!

Had a rather peculiar call this morning at half past nine. The person on the line wanted to know if I was indeed Mrs. ........., which I confirmed. Then, rather oddly, he inquired whether I had a washing machine and its age. Next, he wanted to ascertain if I was over the age of 61. At that point, I decided it was best to end the conversation-definitely felt like a scam to me, clearly fishing for my personal details. It's quite disconcerting how much they seemed to know about me already, and I can’t help but worry about the information I inadvertently verified as being accurate.

Earlier today, I received a call from a chap who addressed me by name. He wanted to confirm he was actually speaking to me, which I did acknowledge. Then, he inquired if I had a washing machine and whether it was a recent purchase. Quite unexpectedly, he proceeded to ask if I was over 61, to which I responded. Everything unfolded at such a rapid pace that before I realised it, I was divulging these details! I quickly ended the conversation before he could probe further. Now, I’m left feeling rather anxious about how much he actually gleaned from our brief exchange and what else he might have been trying to uncover with those seemingly innocent queries.

Got a call from a lady speaking with an Indian accent saying she was from Nationwide Building Society, which is strange since I’ve never held an account with them. She wanted to verify my postcode but started with an address I moved out of over 10 years ago. When I told her their info must be ages old, she just ended the call. Proper scammy behaviour, best to just put the phone down straight away.
