2 yearsThey said they were calling from some health care place or something.2 yearsHeading up to Edinburgh soon and thinking of dressing up as Dixon of Dock Green for the night. Should be a laugh!EdinburghDixonDock Green2 yearsGot a call today from someone claiming it was about health stuff, checking on how we were. Told them straight up we don't deal with unsolicited calls like that...2 yearsGot a call earlier today from someone claiming to be the NHS health centre. Honestly, I'm so fed up with all these dodgy calls. I think I'm about ready to ditch my landline altogether since it seems like every day some scammer is trying their luck.2 yearsGot a call claiming to be from the NHS but seemed fishy, like the company was just pretending to be them. Felt a bit dodgy, so I didn’t trust it. Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s just some scam trying to trick people.NHS2 yearsLoads of scammers calling nonstop, it’s really annoying!2 yearsThey inquired about my medical concerns, and I informed them that I'm already consulting my own physician.2 yearsI received a phone call from this number which was seeking my elderly mother. Fortunately, I picked up. An individual with an Indian accent introduced himself as calling from the Senior Healthcare Unit. When I inquired about this organisation, it was apparent I hadn’t heard of them before. He claimed they operate in various regions and reach out to check on senior citizens. He went on to mention a conversation he supposedly had with my mother two months prior, during which he recommended a treatment for her mobility challenges, and he wished to follow up if it had been of any assistance. I informed him that my mother has no such issues, to which he retorted that she must be taking painkillers. I quickly told him he had the wrong person, and the call ended abruptly. Clearly, this is a tactic to extract personal details from vulnerable older individuals. I've since blocked the number.Senior Healthcare Unit2 yearsI gave my mother-in-law a ring to check on her discomforts, and she seemed rather eager to recommend some herbal remedies. It’s concerning, as she’s been taken for a ride by such scams before.2 yearsI didn’t get any voicemail from that number so I’ve just blocked it. After doing a bit of digging, it looks like a scam. Honestly, why can’t these folks find proper work? It’s really annoying.2 yearsThey rang me up, said my name and then abruptly ended the call.2 yearsSo this guy called saying he was "John" from some "Elder Care" place, but the number was different from the one I’d already blocked for hassling my grandma about buying loads of Tumeric Tablets. Instead of just hanging up, I ended up singing a song for him, then switched to rehearsing my French. After that, he just gave up and hung up.JohnElder Care2 yearsGot a call from a woman speaking with an Asian accent, claiming it was about a health check and asking if everything was alright. What freaked me out was that she already knew my name and my husband's name. I just told her we were fine and then hung up.3 yearsLooks like a total scam, they didn’t even bother to leave a message.3 yearsI received a call from this number, but there was no one on the line when I picked up. Quite mysterious, really!3 yearsGot a call showing up as 'Steve' even though I usually block numbers I don’t recognise. I have no clue who Steve is, so I let it go to voicemail. No message was left, which made me think it was dodgy. After checking out what others have said, I’m pretty sure it’s a scam too!Steve3 yearsI got a call from this Edinburgh number, but by the time I answered, there was nothing except an answering machine. In the background I could hear some noises and people chatting. When I tried to call back, my phone said the number wasn’t recognised. I just hit redial once. If the notes are right this sounds like a scam and could be risky, especially for older or vulnerable folks.Edinburgh3 yearsI received a call indicating that they're conducting health assessments for retirees in the Manchester region; however, they aren't affiliated with the NHS.ManchesterNHS3 yearsHad a call from 01313859701, ignored it. Definately a scam.3 yearsGot a call from 01313859701 earlier. Heard some foreign chatter in the background, then they just cut off. Feels like a scam to me.3 yearsToday I got a call from 01313859701, some bloke claiming to be from the NHS Medicare, asking for my missus. He kicked off with a rubbish story saying his name was Stephen but spoke with a thick Karachi accent. She wasn’t having any of it and quickly ended the call. Definitely a scam, watch out!Medicare NHSStephen3 yearsGot a call from someone with a foreign accent, said he was from the NHS wanting to chat about some local health news. I told him I wasn’t interested and just ended the call. He mentioned his name was Richard.NHSRichard3 yearsGot a call from someone named Arran, sounded like he had an Asian accent and said he was from some Elderly Serious Healthcare place. He asked if I was my missus's first name. I said no, then he tried asking if I was Mr my surname. I guess he picked up on me sounding a bit suspicious and asked why I sounded so off. I just told him I was trying to figure out why he was calling me. He quickly said sorry and hung up before I could even mention our landline is on the TPS list. Seemed like a classic scam, so I blocked the number straight away.ArranElderly Serious HealthcarePreference Service3 yearsOn 15/12/23, I got a call on my landline from a bloke named Steve. He asked me about my health, specifically if I had any heart issues or arthritis. When I asked what the call was about, he started talking about some kind of supplements and mentioned oil. I told him I wasn’t interested and then ended the call.Steve3 yearsI got a call supposedly from the NHS the other day. Shortly after, my landline buzzed again, this time showing Ipswich as the caller. They asked me if my heart was alright and if I suffered from arthritis. I said no to both, and then he just ended the call. Maybe they expected me to say yes or something. Makes me wonder if someone’s managed to spoof the NHS number or hack their system.NHSIpswich3 yearsThey said they were from NHS care services, but when my mum asked why we were getting this call for the third time, they just ended the call. Bit strange really.NHSSubmit Your Own Report (0131 385 9701)
