6 yearsI'm putting a stop to this number right away! They called and straight away wanted to speak to our Partner by name before I'd barely even picked up. They refused to say what the call was about and wouldn't leave a message either. When I asked them to take our number off their list, they got really cheeky and said they’d contact my boss to moan that I was rude to them! Totally unprofessional.6 yearsGot a call at work from a woman saying we’d been involved in this anti-bullying drive that supposedly went really well. She mentioned they’d mailed us something from the “Prevention Foundation,” but I asked why we hadn’t gotten an email about it? When I asked for their website, she kept saying everything we needed was in the letter she sent. As the MD, I knew for a fact we never got any mail or signed up for any campaign like that. Definitely a con!Prevention Foundation7 yearsGot a call about sponsoring books for a local primary school, but it turned out to be a scam. Such a shame people do stuff like this.7 yearsSo, I got a call from this number earlier and kept insisting I didn’t remember any chat or agreeing to anything with them. Because of a family loss recently, I thought maybe I’d ended up signing something without realising. I told them to just post me the bill. Still, something felt off, so I decided to look it up online. Really happy I did - definitely dodged a bullet!7 yearsYou should definitely notify the cops through this link: Action Fraud.Action Fraud7 yearsHad a call off someone saying we’d agreed to back leaflets for schools, which we honestly never did. Told them straight we never made any deal. They said they'd take us off their list afterwards. Definitely don’t hand over any cash!!!7 yearsSo this outfit calls themselves EMS - some kind of educational service or whatever. Honestly, I'm proper fed up because they said they'd email me to confirm I declined to pay, but of course, I never got anything. Had a chat with someone named Vicky Clark. Seems like they're pushing hard on calls! They really make it harder for the folks who actually need legit assistance.EMSVicky Clark7 yearsToday, someone named Vicky Clark phoned me claiming to thank me for backing a school safety awareness project. I told her I hadn’t given any support. She insisted they rang me last year and said I owed £189, but if I settled now, I’d get a £30 discount. I tried dialing the number 0161 399 0297 back, but just got a robotic voicemail asking me to leave my number after a beep - only there was no beep at all. I pushed back and asked for an email confirming my consent. She replied they never send emails!!! Honestly?Vicky Clark7 yearsOddly enough, I got sent a sample booklet along with a certificate. I’m going to follow this up properly. However, the person on the phone has been quite rude to my team, which I won’t tolerate. I’ll make sure it gets sorted.7 yearsLast year, someone calling herself Carol Taylor got in touch about some Anti Bullying books, but I’m pretty sure it was a scam. Lucky for me, I work for a firm that investigates these sort of things alongside the Police. She mentioned sending an invoice, so I’m just biding my time until it arrives. I reckon she won’t be getting paid anytime soon! ;-)Carol Taylor7 yearsI've been getting calls from 01613990297 for quite a few years now. It’s all some anti-bullying scam that eventually goes up a notch with someone pretending to be from the police threatening you about unpaid fines. It’s totally fake. They first rang me about it last year, and then they came back around a month ago trying the same trick. Avoid these scammers!7 yearsAbsolute rubbish! They said they'd already talked to me back in October about backing some anti-bullying initiative in schools nearby. Then they claimed it went really well and asked me to pick which school should get wristbands and books with my name on them as a "supporter". Total nonsense! I asked them to send any paperwork I supposedly signed, but all they said was they'd contact me later. Complete con artists!7 yearsAbsolute con artists, can’t trust a word they say.7 yearsI just had a call that turned out to be a scam. When I called them out on it, they suddenly got really hostile! Check it out:7 yearsI keep getting calls from this number, but whenever I pick up, they just end the call straight away.7 yearsGot a call today that was soooo slick, like some fancy sales pitch, but turned out to be a total scam trying to take £189. They said it was for sponsoring anti-bullying books in schools - sounds nice but it's a con. Seen loads of people complaining here too, so just block ’em for your own good!7 yearsSeems like a scam to me - they were asking for money for some sort of school safety sponsorship, saying we'd contributed in the past. I asked for her name and contact details, and she gave me a number starting with 03645, which I found strange since she was calling from a 0161 line. They've called me with this same story before, sounds legit at first but definitely dodgy.7 yearsJust like other people have said, they claimed they’d rang me earlier (which wasn’t true) and said I had helped with their Anti-Bullying thing before (totally made up). I called them out on their fibs and they just hung up. Bit of a faff arguing with them cos it uses up your time too, but I reckon it might put an end to their calls.7 yearsGot a call from someone saying she was Carole Taylor, a safety officer for Isle of Man schools. She wanted cash for some anti-bullying programme, but it was a total scam. Watch out for this one!Isle of ManCarole Taylor7 yearsGot a call from someone calling herself Carol Taylor, said she was with EMS and claimed we had chatted on the 7th November. Thing is, I was abroad at that time, so no chance. They said they’re from Elmbank Street in Glasgow, which is nearby, but it’s definitely a scam pretending to be about anti-bullying. Don’t trust it at all.Carol TaylorEMSElmbank StreetGlasgow7 yearsI had a call about some anti bullying thing but it sounded dodgy, so I just ended the call.7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming they wanted to sponsor some books about bullying for the schools around here, but it sounded fishy to me, like a bit of a scam. Felt like they were just trying to get info or something. Be careful with those kind of calls!Submit Your Own Report (0161 399 0297)
