so i got a call supposedly from the dept of work and pensions asking if there had been any changes to my situation, like my right to stay in the uk. honestly, i’ve been born and bred here my whole life, so that immediately made me suspicious. felt like a scam right away.

I got a call from this number, a lady with an Asian tone spoke and somehow she knew my name. Then she started talking about me owing loads of money which was totally unexpected because I don’t have any debts! I got proper annoyed and shouted over the phone “stop talking nonsense!” Surprisingly, she just ended the call. Not long after, another call came through on my mobile. Didn’t answer and blocked both numbers straight away. From Karen in Kent.

Just had another call from someone claiming to be the DWP. I told them straight up they’re just trying to scam people and to buzz off.

They claimed to be from the DWP, but something about it just didn’t seem right to me.

Got a call earlier supposedly from DHSS, asking about my ethnicity and whether anything has changed since covid. I told them straight up, you’re not DHSS, I’m not saying a thing. Said if they really were from there, send a letter. Then the line went dead. Pretty clear these calls are dodgy, especially with that Indian accent. The number itself gave it away. Honestly, just use a bit of common sense.

I got a call claiming to be from the Dept of Health and Social Security, but other folks reckon they're from Citizens Advice. It’s always the same thing - people with Indian accents and really poor English. The government really needs to get serious about this. They should track these calls using cell towers and sim card info, then freeze their accounts and seize their stuff to stop them for good.

Got a call from this number but wasn’t able to pick up. I phoned back and it just went to voicemail with no answer. Definitely sounds like one of those annoying spam calls. Blocked it straight away.

Got a missed call earlier, tried ringing back but it just kept ringing out. Looks like another one of those annoying nuisance calls. Seriously, what’s happening to this world nowadays?

Someone kept ringing me pretending to be from Citizens Advice. When I told them to stop, they got all aggressive and started threatening to make a claim against me or something like that. They even said stuff about messing up my credit score and told me to “just wait and see”. Proper dodgy, if you ask me.
