2 yearsThe phone rings, I pick up, and then they just cut the call - straight to blocked and reported with me!2 yearsThese calls from so called Manchester numbers are just tricks, most likely fake VOIP lines run by some call centres in India. If you get one of these, best to just hang up or give them a good telling off coz they are definitely scammers. Don't bother expecting police in India to step in, they seem pretty uninterested unless there's some money involved. Heard BBC’s Scam Interceptors are on the case, but with hundreds just in Delhi, it’s an uphill battle. Just be careful and block these numbers straight away.VoIPManchesterIndiaBBCScamDelhi2 yearsGot a call from this number on my landline around 11:07 this morning, but they didn't leave any voicemail. I've blocked them now.2 yearsI don’t know anyone from Manchester, so I figured this was probably some sort of scam. The moment I picked up, they hung up straight away. Could be one of those call-back scams, or maybe they use some kind of auto dialler and I wasn’t the first to get through.Manchester2 yearsYou could tell it was a call from abroad with all the noise in the background. I just gave a short grunt and they ended the call right away.2 yearsThey didn’t leave a message, so I just figured it was some sort of scam.2 yearsCalled me but ended the call as soon as I picked up.2 yearsSame old lot calling again, you’d think they’d have given up by now!

She asked if I was having a nice day, but I cut her off straight away and told her I wasn’t, since she’d just woken me up. I then asked what exactly she wanted. There was a pause, she sounded a bit flustered, and then she just hung up.2 yearsGot a call claiming I was entitled to a refund because I'd been overcharged some time back. Seemed dodgy, so I just ended the call.2 yearsWithout a doubt, it's a dodgy operation if they're insisting you install the Anydesk app. They pretended to be from Virgin Media broadband. As soon as you confront them and call out their lies, they hang up abruptly on you. Quite the shady bunch!AnydeskVirgin Media2 yearsI’ve received a proposal for a discount from my EE network provider, and they’ve asked for my card information to alter the direct debit.EE2 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be Virgin, asking how much my bill was.

He started by asking how I was, but as soon as I asked what the call was about, he just cut me off. Could hear a bunch of voices in the background too. Feels like it was one of those dodgy scam calls.EE2 yearsGot a call just now from a bloke with an Indian accent saying he was from EE. I told him I seriously don’t think EE would be phoning me. Then he just ended the call.

I said I don't even use their service, then she started naming loads of other providers like Virgin, BT and Blueyonder, saying she was checking my line. I told her straight up she was a scammer and hung up.Sky BroadbandVirginBlueyonderBT2 yearsThe lady on the phone had an Indian accent and claimed she was calling from some "Auto mobile" company or something. I'd never come across them before, so I just ended the call.2 yearsHad a call from a bloke named Jamie claiming he was ringing from BT.

Best to just report it and block the number, I reckon.2 yearsHad a missed call from 0161 524 3238 on the 15th of January, 2024. They didn’t bother to leave a message, which raises my suspicions about their intentions-could very well be a scam.

I’d suggest reporting this number and then blocking it for good measure.3 yearsHe started yelling at me in a thick Asian accent, saying something like, "Are you stupid? If I ask you something, you better answer." That was before he even bothered saying who he was. I just ended the call right then and there.3 yearsAs soon as I strayed from the script, they ended the call on me.3 yearsI usually steer clear of calls starting with 0161 since they tend to be dodgy, and as far as I’m aware, no one I know has that area code. So yeah, I just let it ring out.3 yearsGot a call on my mobile at 09:41, didn’t pick up. After reading some reviews, I’ve decided to block the number.3 yearsI picked up, but the caller just hung up before I even got the chance to say anything.3 yearsI got a call where the person just kept shouting my name, but oddly enough tangled up their words too.
