Someone rang me saying they were from Housing Disrepair. Thing is, that’s a government office that doesn’t call people out of the blue. I checked Trustpilot and it all looked fishy. They acted like they knew my last name and where I live, but that info isn’t even on the public electoral roll. Also, the person didn’t sound like they were from Bolton at all, and kept calling me “Ma’am” in a weird way. Suspicious if you ask me.

A guy from India rang me up and was asking if I was having any trouble with my home or my health, but honestly, his accent was so thick I could barely catch what he said. When I tried asking who he wanted, he didn’t seem to have a clue and kept calling me "ma'am" over and over. Pretty strange call!

Today I got a call from this number, and the guy said his name was Omar, talked about some housing stuff. His accent was really hard to understand, so I just ended the call.

Dodged a bullet there, turned out to be one of those dodgy call centres from India or Pakistan. Best to just hang up right away - it’s definitely a scam!

Got a call from some Indian bloke who asked how I was doin and wanted to speak to me. He used my surname with the first initial but kinda mashed them together like it was one word. Told him he’d got the wrong number and he just hung up on me.

Got a call from a guy with an Indian accent saying there was some damage to my property. He only knew my first name, nothing else, so I guess he got my info off Gumtree or something. Felt really suspicious, so I blocked the number straight away.

I could barely make out what they were saying, but it seemed to be something about damage to a building?

I got a call from someone with a really thick foreign accent, said he was from some housing repairs group or something, talking about damage I supposedly reported. Asked if I lived in council or private housing. Sounded dodgy to me. I actually live in my own place, well, technically it’s owned by my dad.

Got a call from a bloke claiming to be with a housing assoc about some mould and damage to my place. He asked if I was in council housing or private rentals. Oddly, he already had my name and address. When I told him he should have that info and not keep asking, he got annoyed, started swearing at me and said I was wasting his time before hanging up. Really strange and rude.
