I only picked up the phone for it to cut off after just a few seconds.

Got a call about some "helpful" survey, but it was just a phishing attempt. They ask you a load of questions, but it’s really to gather info for scams down the line. I ended up reporting it on Ofcom’s 7726 spam reporting site.

Got a call from this dodgy number while I was abroad. The lady hung up after about 56 seconds - right when she started her usual rubbish spiel. I had my phone near the radio playing some tunes, which made it quite funny actually. This was the first time I’ve had a call from this spoofed number. Definitely a scam.

I saw the number looked familiar from a call I had last year, so I just ignored it. Plus, I’m not connected to anyone in Manchester. Ended up blocking the number anyway.

Just received a call from 0161 550 7178, and the bloke on the line asked for me by name. I asked who he was, and some guy with an Indian accent said it was a proper company. When I asked again who he was, he just kept saying it was an official company. I told him where to go and ended the call - complete muppets!

Got a call from someone claiming to be with Beneficial Surveys, said it would just take a couple minutes. They already had loads of my info, like my address and stuff. Kept bombarding me with questions, but I refused to answer. Ended up hanging up. Then they rang me back, but I didn’t pick up.

I swear these scammers just never stop. I get so many dodgy calls, all coming from Manchester numbers. It feels like they've got endless lines or something. Wish there was a way to just block them all!
