I’m certain that some business must have passed my info along to others.

Some lady with a weird accent phoned me saying she was from the “telephone preference service”. When I asked what the call was about, she just cut me off and ended the call.

I got a call from this number, and it was a bloke with an accent saying he was offering an upgrade for my home landline to block overseas calls. The area code looked legit enough. He even mentioned my card had run out recently and wanted the new expiry date. Then he asked me to read out my card number to verify my direct debit. I didn’t feel right about it, so I hung up straight away. To be safe, I’ve already contacted my bank and cancelled that card.

Total scam, just like others said before. He told me he'd called because I supposedly signed up for some call blocking thing. I had no idea about this. I tried to explain but he kept going on like I wasn’t paying attention, sounded pretty pushy too. In the end, I just ended the call.

Got a call today from some dodgy number claiming they could block all nuisance calls if I paid a fee. They asked for my credit card details, but I knew straight away it was a scam. Such unscrupulous people out there trying to fleece others! Made me worry for an elderly mate of mine who might fall for it.

I could clearly hear the hustle and bustle of a call centre in the background. A voice that sounded a bit foreign was keen to speak to me personally. Rather than give my name away, I simply inquired who was on the line. The caller then proceeded to tell me to press 5 for an upgrade on my service, which supposedly included a fancy call blocking feature. Needless to say, there was no way I was about to hit that button, so I hung up instead. It's baffling where these telemarketers are sourcing our names and phone numbers from. Seems like the Telephone Preference Service is falling short of its duties!

Got a call from some call blocking company claiming I was due for an upgrade. I told the person I wasn’t signed up with them, but he insisted he had the right info. Then suddenly, he just hung up on me.

Utterly dodgy - received a call from someone with a thick accent, purporting to be from “my” mobile blocking service.

Got a call from someone with a foreign accent pretending to be from the phone blocking company I use. Definitely a scam.
