This number popped up on my phone with a warning about a possible scam. When I picked up, a man with a strong accent claimed he was ringing from a law firm, talking for the government or something. He mentioned some issue about damage to my house. I just ended the call straight away.

Been getting loads of calls about fixing stuff at my house but honestly, there’s nothing wrong here. The callers sound like they might have an Indian accent. I've blocked their numbers tons of times, every time they ring from different numbers. Now I just ignore the calls completely and keep adding the numbers to my block list - it’s been going on for over a year! Most of the numbers seem to have a Manchester area code, but I reckon they might not even be calling from the UK at all.

Got a call saying they got my number from something called the "UK Survey Authority" about supposed damage to my property. When I asked which firm they were with, they just hung up on me. Feels like a dodgy scam to me. Anyone else had this happen? Let’s keep an eye out and report it!

Got a call from someone with an Asian accent, talkin' all fancy like about a housing association and councillors, tryin' to confuse me. They said they’re a company that gathers details and sends out builders to do repairs, claiming they've lawyers who will chase the housing council for the costs and that I wouldn’t have to pay a penny. But truth is, I own my place and don’t trust their lot one bit. Heard they're located somewhere in Manchester.

Got a call from someone with an accent that sounded Asian, saying they worked for a local council maintenance team. They told me they found my number on some "national tenants register" which, FYI, is total rubbish and doesn't even exist. I’m not a renter anyway, I own my house outright! He went on to ask if my "rental" had any mould issues, trying to bring up that recent tragic story about the kid who died because of mould. Told him off and told him to buzz off (in much nicer words, but you get the idea). Proper scammer if you ask me!

I've been getting incessant calls from the number 01612431756, and it's absolutely infuriating!

I've received repeated calls from someone whose grasp of English leaves much to be desired. I’ve made it clear that I want my number taken off their list, yet they keep bothering me. It’s becoming quite a nuisance, especially as my home is fully paid for and I have no mortgage. I even got so frustrated that I hung up on them!

Got a few calls from poor English speakers abroad, really annoying and pestering me more than once. They’re causing trouble and it’s unfair since I own my council house outright, no mortgage or anything. Told them to take my number off their list, but they just hung up on me. Proper nuisance, honestly.

They said they got my number from some fake company, sounded like it was from overseas, probably India. They were asking about damage caused by tenants. After about a minute and a half, they just went quiet. I let the call run though since they’re the ones footing the phone bill.

For a couple of days straight, I got calls from the same number asking about my house. The guy's accent was pretty hard to catch. Told him to stop bothering me, then just blocked the number on my phone.

Just got a call from someone claiming my house had some sort of damage. Definitely sounded like a scam to me, asking all sorts of questions about my property. Be careful and don’t give out any info to these dodgy callers!

"Hello, um, is this the right person? Erm, I just wanted to ask if your home has suffered any kind of damage lately?"
