Got a call but they hung up before I could answer.

Got a call earlier from 01516 011431, some bloke chatting about life insurance. Told him I wasn’t keen and he got all stroppy asking why not. Claimed he’d talked to my husband, but that’s a load of rubbish because my husband said no one called him. He was quite rude, so I just ended the call.

Got a call earlier from a lady with an accent that seemed Asian, talking about some issue with my Virgin account and asking for my details to fix it. I just hung up straight away. Then I googled the number 01516 770950 and found this site. The woman's voice was really odd, like she was reading from a script or something - even sounded a bit out of it, maybe on something. You could hear background noise like a busy call centre, which I reckon was just a fake recording. Honestly, stay well clear of this one.

Got a call from 01516251584, didn't catch who it was and no voicemail either. Proper annoying so I just blocked the number.

Got a weird call from 01516### with a recorded message saying there were 2 payments taken from my bank account, one to Amazon for £### and another for £### to some international website. Definitely feels like a scam to me.

Got a ring from ### ### this afternoon, think it might’ve been a dodgy call, maybe from Liverpool? Anyone know if it’s a scam?

Got a call a couple days back from 01516###, they said my router had an issue. Then today, someone else called me from a different ### number trying the same story. Watch out, these are definitely dodgy scam calls!

Got a call from some place called Amaton saying I'd missed a payment for Prime. Thing is, I don't even have a Prime subscription, so it has to be a dodgy scam.

So, this number 0151656224 called me but then just hung up. Your system says 0151 is fine, but watch out for 01516 - that one's dodgy!

Got a few calls this morning from 01516397701, some recorded message with a US woman saying my Amazon account's gonna be shut down - which I don’t even have. It was the same annoying message, but sounded like it was coming from different places or something. Proper irritating.

Got a call this week from 01516###, second time on my home line in just a few days. The person said they were from BT and claimed there was a security issue with my router. I asked for the router number to confirm, and they actually gave the right one. When I asked if they were truly from BT or a third party, the person assured me they were BT staff. Then I challenged them because BT’s official scam warnings state they don't bring up router security problems. The caller, who sounded Indian, tried to argue with me but I had the BT scams webpage printed and quoted it to him. Eventually he passed me to a supervisor who was just repeating the same story about my router issues. I was fed up by then and ended the call. The previous call came from a different number, but with a Manchester area code.

They’ve ringed me up thrice now, telling me they’re from Amazon accounts. It’s obviously a scam, so I’d just advise not picking up. Eventually, they’ll stop bothering you!

I’ve been getting calls from this number like 4 times daily all week long. Obviously, I don’t pick up anymore. You’d think they’d have stopped by now but nope, still going strong.

Got a call from 01516### claiming to be Amazon. They use an auto voice telling you to press 1. After that, they immediately want your bank info. Total scam!

Got a call from ### claiming to be from BT about my internet. The lady on the phone had a really American accent, which seemed odd since I don’t even use BT as my provider. Felt a bit fishy to me.
