Someone rang me pretending to be from Vodafone, saying they had a 40% off deal on the new iPhone 15 Pro Max. I immediately suspected it was a con since Vodafone wouldn’t do anything like that. Definitely a scam.

Totally a dodgy call.

Somebody rang saying they were from o2 with a 40% off deal. They transferred me to a ‘senior manager’ who mentioned sending me a text with a code to verify the discount. I asked them to hold while I looked up the number. Then a different person joined the call and started discussing “trace my home” stuff, shouting something in what sounded like an Indian dialect. I just ended the call right away. Definitely a scam, blocked the number straight away.

This morning, I received a call from a chap with a noticeable foreign accent, and it sounded like he was phoning from an international call centre. He claimed to represent a prestigious company, supposedly a telecommunications provider. To be honest, I have my suspicions that it's just a dodgy scam.

Someone said they were from O2, but I’m not so sure it was legit.

Got a call from someone saying they were with 02, offering a discount on my plan. They asked a few questions and then sent me a text with a code, showing the sender as "02 UK" but real messages from O2 never have that space. I told them I didn’t have all my details ready and just hung up.

The scammers cant even speak right on the phone. I just ended the call as soon as they started with "Hello this is".

I got a call from a number that showed up as Manchester, but when I answered and said hello, no one spoke and then the line just went dead. I could hear Indian accents faintly in the background though, so I’m pretty sure it was one of those scam call centres. Maybe when I started talking they realised I wasn’t the kind of person they wanted to scam and quickly hung up. Quite dodgy if you ask me.

Got calls from this number a bunch of times over several days but never picked up. They didn't even bother to leave a voicemail.

I just got a call from what sounded like some overseas call centre saying they worked for Premium company, which they said was a network provider. It’s defo a scam, couldn’t even answer simple questions I threw at them. Best to just ignore these calls.

This number looks like spam to me.
