This number rang me twice within 4 days and I let both go to voicemail. What’s odd is that just under an hour after the most recent call, another call came from 0161 566 6241, which I didn’t pick up either. Both these numbers show up on Who Called Me, and people there reckon they’re linked to scam calls.

I just ignored the call, didn’t pick up.

Got a call from some bloke with an Indian accent trying to pitch a 40% discount on O2. The connection was awful, really crackly, and the whole thing sounded dodgy to me. Reckon it was probably a scam.

Got nothing but quiet on the other end, kinda like one of those call centre calls, so I just ended it.

They've rung me a couple of times but I usually just ignore it when I notice it's from a Manchester area code. I did pick up once and it was a woman with an accent I couldn’t place saying she was from O2 offering some discounts on my plan. I found it odd since I told her I'd ended my O2 contract ages ago because of the endless calls annoy me. Then she switched to talking about Virgin Media, so I told her to stop calling and put the phone down. I've gone ahead and blocked the number now.

This number rang me the other day but I didn’t pick up, felt like it was probably a scam. Honestly, I reckon this one’s dodgy just like the rest of the scam calls I get. Wouldn’t trust it at all.

I saw the number 0161 566 6197 pop up but didn't pick up since I wasn't sure who it was.

Jus spam, nothing else.

They rang me twice but never left a message. When I tried calling back, an answerphone from BT Call Minder picked up, so I just ended the call. Going to block the number now.

I’m from Edinburgh and even tho I blocked this number, it was pretty scary. I was chatting on the phone with a mate when suddenly it seemed like they were trying to hijack my call. Definitely a dodgy number to watch out for!

This number keeps ringing me but never says anything when I pick up. A real person wouldn’t just hang up like that every time. I’ve blocked it before, but looks like I’ll have to do it again. Proper nuisance!

I'm back to say, why aren't the telcos or the government doing more to figure out who actually owns these phone numbers? Honestly, it feels like we're being way too soft on this issue. The whole country needs to get serious and clamp down hard. There's far too many gaps in the system that people are taking advantage of. Every number should be linked to a real name and address, no excuses.
