I got a call claiming to be from the fraud division, said they were from Greenlock Scotland but calling into London. They mentioned something about working with Camden council under BTU. Seems pretty dodgy to me.

I checked up on this number and it turns out it’s actually from Action Fraud. A couple of months back, I filed a report with them, and they ring me occasionally just to follow up and check if there’s any progress. So, no, it’s not one of those scam lines.

I reached out to Action Fraud regarding this number, but they insisted that it's not associated with them at all. The person on the line, who had a noticeable Scottish twang, informed me that the number in question-01475656501-connects to Greenock in Scotland. Quite baffling, really, as Action Fraud claims they don’t operate from that number!

Got a call today from this number, first ever time it’s rung me. Looks like it’s from Greenock in Scotland. Pretty sure it’s another scam or some kind of fraud. Stay wary!

Got a call from a bloke mentioning a fraud case I’d lodged not long ago. He just wanted to make sure I was alright now and if anything else had gone wrong since then. He gave me a number for the small claims court just in case I wanted to push things further, gave some tips on what to watch out for going forward and that was pretty much it! Seemed genuine - he already had my name and info about the claim and didn’t ask for any more details or cash or anything, just a polite check-in to see if everything was settled.

They've tried to contact me a couple of times on FaceTime, but I didn’t pick up. Not sure how they even managed to reach me that way, honestly feels like some sort of harassment and it's pretty worrying.

These scammers keep ringing from a landline number to seem more legit. They call over and over but never bother to leave a message. You’d think BT would be able to sort this out and block them. It’s just straight-up harassment at this point.

Im a bit wary of the phone number 01475 65650 from Treenock, Scotland. Every time I try calling it, I’m only able to leave a voicemail. When the call comes from this number to me, the person on the other end is really hard to understand. They said they'd send an email with info about what they wanted, but that never arrived. It’d be nice to figure out who this number belongs to. Cheers.

I got a call from 01475 65650, it showed up as Tyreenock, Scotland. Been reading about numbers like this, and it seems these calls are from lists shared around by brokers and loads of companies. Honestly, it’s daft how much stuff gets passed about nowadays. Makes you think of all the stuff Edward Snowden and Julian Assange revealed about data privacy. It’s a real mess out there with our info flying about without us knowing.

Honestly, if folks just ignored cold calls, these annoying calls would probably die off pretty quick. But since some people do end up chatting or responding, these companies keep at it. For me, I just don’t bother with them at all. If a business keeps trying to sell stuff out of the blue or sends me junk mail often, I make sure to never ever deal with them - I’ve done that plenty of times already.

I answered the phone and asked who it was, but there was no reply. Then they just started going on about insurance stuff.

My phone kept buzzing from this number even after I rejected the call, it just wouldn’t stop until I had to switch my phone off altogether!
