Got a call on my mobile here in Scotland and didn’t pick up - it looked like it could be one of those dodgy scam calls. I'm on the TPS list and never sign up for any marketing, so I’m pretty sure it wasn’t legit.

Im so fed up with these lot, always cheerful and chipper saying they’re from some survey or heating check or something. Truth is, they’re nothing but a right nuisance.

Had a call from a woman speaking with a really thick Indian accent, almost impossible to understand. She was saying I could get some kind of payout for repairs to the property and kept asking who my landlord was. Total scam, no doubt about it.

Got a ring from this number today. Strangely, the caller already knew my full name right off the bat. (How on earth did they find that out?) Didn’t hang around and ended the call pretty quick since it felt dodgy.

Got a call, no sound at all when I picked up - definitely a scam!

No one spoke at the other end, probably a test call before spam starts, so I just blocked the number.

After seeing these messages, I just blocked and reported the number straight away.

The phone just rang with nobody speaking on the other end. Quite annoying!
