2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from a bank, but they never gave a name or used mine. They said there were two dodgy transactions and I needed to get in touch with them, all in some robotic recorded voice with options to press buttons. Pretty sure it’s a scam. Rang the number back, but it just went dead. They had also called me on my mobile yesterday with the identical weird message.4 yearsI received a call from a chap who had a distinctly Indian accent, asserting that he was with the "UK Public Health Department."

Then, she said they had access to my medical records and asked if I had any health or life insurance. That was the moment I just hung up.
