I recently got a call from someone claiming they could sort out car loans, but it felt really dodgy and like a scam. Would watch out for these types trying to offer car finance deals.

I wouldn’t say a word if I were you, it’s probably some AI trying to record your voice and later use it to scam your relatives. Crazy how the line goes dead almost straight away, isn’t it? Just best to stay silent.

I picked up and it was one of those scam calls, but they just ended the call straight away.

Over the past few days, I've gotten about 10 calls from the same number, but no one ever talks - just pure silence. When I finally answered and told them to quit calling me, there was nothing but quiet on the other end. So frustrating!

They didnt say a word, just ended the call right away.

Got two calls from this number and not a word said either time. On the second call I told them they’re just wasting their phone credit and that the police could easily track them down. They ended up hanging up after that.

Was in a meeting so phone was on silent, missed the call. Thought it looked a bit dodgy as there wasn't any voicemail. Felt a bit off about it.

It’s a total scam, the moment you tell them your name they’ve got ya. Just say you don’t recognise the number, scam alert!

So I picked up and the bloke wanted to chat to someone called "mr target". This number keeps ringing me up looking for a person by that name - seems like they’re onto their usual scam victim.

This morning, my wife received a call regarding her computer, and they were aware of her name. Fortunately, she saw through this scam concerning supposed issues with her machine and didn't fall for it.

Had a rather odd phone call today from a foreign number. It was quite clear it was a call centre situation. They rambled on about some supposed debt, which I found rather puzzling, as I can't recall having any debts at all! They even suggested that I write to them. Sounds like yet another scam attempt to me!

I picked up and the call just ended right away, twice in a row. What’s that about?

This was a total scam, just a bunch of lowlives. I seriously doubt their parents would be proud of what they’re up to. Absolute rubbish!

It’s really shocking how everyone keeps complaining about these numbers but the phone companies just don’t seem to bother blocking them. Why on earth do they do nothing? I’m in Hampshire and I’m so fed up with the constant annoying calls, especially from people outside the UK and even some from within. It’s proper frustrating!

Keeps calling from loads of different 01615 numbers, and none of them answer if you try to call back. All just that old rubbish about some computer virus. Total scam, really annoying.

My phone was just quiet for a bit then suddenly someone with a strange accent just said 'bye' and hung up. Seems a bit dodgy if you ask me.

Got a call where someone claimed my computer had a virus and asked to get in remotely - definite scam, these people are just trying to do dodgy stuff.

I got a call from this number but didn't pick up. When I tried ringing back, it just said the number wasn't reachable. Feels like one of those dodgy scams again.
