8 yearsGot a call from an Asian woman speaking in a really hard to catch dialect. She started with "I'm calling about your..." and then I just ended the call.8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming I was in a car crash not long ago. Quite random and a bit suspicious if you ask me.8 yearsIts really annoying how these calls just keep coming, you'd think the government would step in by now and sort it out. I'm getting proper tired of having to deal with them all the time.8 yearsNo idea how they got hold of my landline, but they just called and stayed silent before cutting off. Feels like one of those dodgy scam calls to me!!!8 yearsGot a call from some woman with a foreign accent saying I’d been in a car crash. I told her straight up it was nonsense and asked her to quit calling me. She ended the call with a big sigh like she was fed up.8 yearsYesterday I got a call from an international number but I didn't pick up. Later, I looked it up here and decided to block it straight away.8 yearsBefore I could pick up, the person calling just ended the call. After reading the reviews here, I’m definitely not gonna be picking up if they ring again.8 yearsGot a robotic call again, second time just today. At first, nothing but silence, then this computer voice of a lady said "Goodbye." Strange experience!8 yearsNo one spoke when I answered, just complete silence.8 yearsGot a call from an Asian lady claiming my husband was in a crash and the car was a total loss! Yeah, right. This isn’t the first time they've called us either, but I reckon it’s the last now.8 yearsLoads of times I've received this call where it’s just quiet, then suddenly a woman says "Goodbye." Bit odd, really.8 yearsWeird call from someone wanting details about a car crash I never even had. What accident are they talking about?! Really confusing!8 yearsHeads up to all the scammers out there - you’re not welcome here.8 yearsGot a call from some guy with an Asian accent claiming to be from an accident helpline about a crash I supposedly had. Total scam, so I just blocked the number straight away.8 yearsI picked up since it was a call to my job line (don’t pick up unknowns on my personal one). It took a bit before it actually connected, then a lady said she was from the National Accident Helpline. I quickly told her I wasn’t interested and asked her not to ring back. I’ve also blocked the number on my phone now. The number seemed like a Manchester one at first, but it was shorter than usual.National Accident HelplineManchester8 yearsDidn’t leave any voicemail or anything, and from what I’ve read here, seems like this is just another scam call.8 yearsThere was nothing but silence when I answered, so after seeing what others said, I decided to block this number.8 yearsGot a call yesterday from a bloke with a really strong Asian accent, I couldn’t make out what he was saying at all. I explained that the number was unlisted and registered with the Telephone Preference Service, and his response was basically "so what?". That annoyed me so much I just shouted a rude word at him and hung up. Honestly, it felt like a good way to blow off some steam.TPS8 yearsAbout ten minutes ago my phone buzzed. Since my landline is pretty new, I’m sure no one has it yet. I didn’t pick up, let it ring through to the answerphone. When I listened back, a woman’s voice said something about my IP address being hacked or something and said to press 1 if I wanna fix it. Total scam, obviously. Nope, no thanks!8 yearsI got a call just now and didn’t pick up because it showed as international on my screen. Watch out though, 0161 is definitely a UK area code, but a legit number after that should have seven digits, not six like this one did. Seems a bit dodgy to me.UK8 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Asian accent asking if I’d been in a car crash. I told her no, never happened. Then she started asking about other types of insurance I have! When I said she sounded like a scammer, she just ended the call.8 yearsA guy, sounded asian, phoned me last week from another number. Said something about the internet and being from BT, telling me there was an issue with my service. I just ended the call straight away. Then today, I got another call from probably the same person but the connection was terrible and couldn't catch a single word. Honestly, I don’t think this bloke has any link to BT and I’d be really careful if he rings again.BT8 yearsGot a call on my landline on the 14th May. No one said anything, just complete silence. I ended up hanging up before waiting for any kind of farewell.8 yearsI just got a call from this number too, and it was the same thing - a robot woman saying "goodbye." Like another person said, I reckon it’s one of those test calls to sell the info. I've blocked the number now. Sometimes, if I’m up for a bit of fun, I let the scammer chat away while pretending to be clueless, then throw in some pointed questions which normally shuts them up pretty quick.8 yearsI picked up the phone and there was nothing but silence on the other end. Just as I was about to hang up, I heard a woman say "bye." Seems like it's one of those scam calls where they see if your number is active before flooding you with spam or selling it off. Best to just ignore this number altogether.8 yearsThe phone was dead quiet at first, then a woman’s voice just said “goodbye”. It happened around 11:40 in the morning. I’ve noticed some other calls coming through about the same time, but the number looked like a UK code that probably isn’t real.UK8 yearsI picked up and didn’t say much, then out of nowhere a woman’s voice said “goodbye.” The call lasted exactly 42 minutes and 42 seconds.8 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent, saying she wanted to discuss a car crash I supposedly had last year - which I definitely didn’t. The number was just 10 digits, nothing else, so I guess it was probably some kind of scam.Submit Your Own Report (161478827)
