2 yearsAt first, it was dead quiet but after about 40 seconds, you could hear what sounded like a busy call centre in the background before the call just dropped.2 yearsThe caller said something about SmartSave UK and it just felt off, so I decided to just end the call.SMartSaveUK2 yearsGot a call out of the blue but ignored it. Somehow my number ended up on spam and scam lists, so between that and the reports here, who knows if it’s genuine or just another con. The phone network is filthy with tricks like SIM cloning and spoofing caller ID or texts. Yet they still expect us to rely on it for things like two-factor authentication for banks. Shows how little the government and big companies actually give a toss about keeping us safe. Who’d want the hassle of sorting out problems caused by a bank’s dodgy security anyway?2 yearsGot a call saying I was owed a refund from my energy company for July. I just told the bloke to donate it to charity and then ended the call!2 yearsHe tried to get me to give the expiry date on my card, but when I refused to share that info, he just ended the call.2 yearsToday at 10.19 am, my landline was buzzed by 01603 384253 once again. They also tried to call yesterday while I wasn’t home, but left no voicemail. No message again this time, so I’m blocking them for the second time. I don’t have any contacts in Norwich, and I’m pretty sure this call originated from abroad. Wherever these calls come from, I just ignore them completely. Definitely a SCAM. Moving on with my day.Norwich2 yearsI picked up the phone to get to the bottom of it - it was some call centre bloke, an Asian guy who called himself Peter. He told me I was owed a £40 refund for being a loyal customer at various big supermarkets, plus some money back on my bills. I told him I’m disabled and haven’t even been to any of those stores! Before I could say more, he asked for my bank details, and then just hung up on me!PeterSouth Asia2 yearsIt was obviously a massive call centre somewhere in India. They told me I was owed £40 cashback because I’d supposedly done business with one of their marketing partners. Then they went on naming all the big supermarkets here in the UK. I just hung up and blocked the number straight away!IndiaUK2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming they’d refund me on my electric bill if I gave them my bank info. I could tell straight away it was dodgy, so I just ended the call. Definitely a scam.2 yearsGot two calls from them, both times I just ended the call. Weirdly enough, they showed my own landline number on the caller ID. I'm staying careful with this.2 yearsGot a call at 4.07pm but they didn't leave any message.2 yearsCalled my landline around 4.13 pm, but I wasn't home. They didn't leave any message, so I'm guessing its a scam. Deleted the number and moving on with my day...2 yearsEventually when someone picked up, I tried to tell them it was a nuisance call and they just ended the call straightaway.2 yearsGot a call from some bloke abroad claiming I was owed a £40 refund from the government or my energy company.2 yearsLooks like some dodgy groups from the UK are behind this. Definitely some local criminals causing trouble. Wouldn't be surprised if these are just gangs operating around here. Keep an eye out, people!UK2 yearsThis call about discounts on fuel bills, saying it's some kind of government program running all July, isn't the first time we've got it. They're clearly preying on older people, which is really worrying. When he asked for my mum's visa card info, she just hung up straight away.2 yearsThey said they were from Smart Saving Energy UK and wanted my info to send me £30, but it just sounded off.Smart Saving EnergyUKSubmit Your Own Report (01603 384253)
