Got a ring from someone called "Tom" earlier today. He said he could help protect my home from government care home fees and said he was with CareCostSolutions. I checked out the CCF website - pretty plain - then phoned their number only to be told all their reps were busy and to leave my details for a callback. Nah, not interested. Seems like a well-made scam though, luckily my missus grabbed the phone before I did.

Today, on the 3rd of March, just after 5:30 in the evening, I received a call from a chap named John. He was inquiring whether I still had a drive at my place. To be honest, I haven't got a clue who he is, so I didn't share any information with him.

Received a call earlier at 12:17, with the caller claiming to have an interest in our driveway! I replied that I was quite pleased with it as is, and inquired if he was trying to pitch something. We’re not in the market for anything new, so I ended the conversation rather promptly.

Not sure really, I use a call blocker on my phone so it asks callers to say who they are first. When it’s a scam or something dodgy, they just hang up and my phone never actually rings. I can see all the calls in the call log and easily block any numbers I don’t recognise.

Got a robocall from someone with an English accent pretending to be from the bank, spinning a story about your house being in danger if you move into a care home. They’re obviously after your bank info. Don’t share any of your details - it’s clearly a scam trying to frighten elderly folks. Stay safe and don’t fall for it!

Got a call from a bloke named James on 01388548677 saying the Government rules have changed and my home could be in danger if I ever needed care. He said he'd ring back tomorrow to explain how I could keep my house safe. I'm just gonna let it go to voicemail until they stop phoning me. It definitely seemed dodgy and I reckon they'll try to get my bank info eventually.

I've put this number on my blocked list now. Did anyone else come across it and report it yet?

Total scam, so I just blocked the number straight away.

That number, 01388 548677, seems to be linked to some pretty pushy cold call scams. Would definitely say watch out for it.

I told them it was about doors and windows, then just ended the call.

Got a call on our landline 1707 from some number I don’t recognise at all. No clue who it could be.

Got a call from a voice with an English accent, going on about some new rules for homeowners. I just told him to find a proper job his mum would be proud of.

No voicemail or anything. Pretty clear they were pushing some product I have no interest in. Watch out!

Total rip-off!

They said they were ringing about some new rules for homeowners from the government. I told them if they were really from the government, they’d know this place is actually rented out!!

I let the call go to voicemail and didn’t pick up. Ended up blocking the number afterwards.

Got a call out of the blue, I told them right away I'm on the TPS list so they really shouldn't be ringing me up, and that what they're doing is illegal.

Just got a phone call not long ago from 01388 548677. The bloke on the line was talking about my "driveway," which is odd coz I only have a hardstanding outside. I asked where he even got those details from but he didn’t reply, so I ended the call.

Missed a call and they didn't bother to leave a message. Just went straight to voicemail, so blocked the number.

I barely managed to say hello before the person started rambling about supposed Government updates for homeowners! If they’d actually listened when I answered, they’d have realised we’re not a home but a business, right here on an industrial estate. Such a waste of time! ###
