2 yearsSeems like a dodgy call from Virgin Media, trying to pull a credit card scam. Watch out!Virgin Media3 yearsDefinitely a scam, don’t trust it!Fraud3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Visa security, telling me there were some big purchases on my account and to press 1 if I didn’t recognise them. The moment I heard the Indian accent, I just knew it was dodgy and put the phone down straight away. Definitely don’t share any personal info if you get a call from this number!Visa3 yearsMy phone rang and when I picked up, there was nothing but silence, so i figured it was a dodgy call. I started whistling into the phone for a laugh... then some automated message popped up about weird charges on my credit card, something about amazon. Since i don’t usually shop there, alarm bells rang. Plus, my credit card company would never ring my landline like that, so for sure a scam. They tried to get me to press one or two on the call... I just kept saying “can you hear me?” and “hello?” to mess with them. Proper funny. Anyway, i’ve blocked the number now.Amazon3 yearsI saw the number pop up but didn’t pick up since it wasn’t familiar. No voicemail was left, so I’m guessing it was probably some sort of spam or telemarketer.3 yearsGot a call from some automated voice saying they were from Visa security, told me my card had two charges, one £200 at Amazon and another for £1100 through Western Union. Then it said press 1 if I wanted to talk to a supervisor. Yeah right, why would I press 1 if they supposedly already have my details? Total SCAMMERS.VisaAmazonWestern Union3 yearsSomeone just rang me saying there were 2 payments made from my bank, one of which was more than £1000. I explained I don’t even have a bank account, and then they just cut the call straight away.3 yearsI dont have that money in my account but they claimed to have taken £300 and £500 from me in two different payments.Submit Your Own Report (0161 285 3812)
