8 yearsHad a dodgy call for a scam just these last couple of days. After a quiet spell of a few months, it seems like these autodiallers are back full force again. Honestly, what are the UK officials actually doing to crack down on these? Feels like bugger all, which is why they just keep going without a hitch.UK8 yearsI got a call from this Asian bloke named Rahman, saying something about a car accident I was supposedly in. When I asked him which accident he was talking about and if he was just making it up, he just ended the call on me. Pretty weird.Rahman8 yearsI picked up around 9 in the morning, but they just ended the call straight away.8 yearsGot a call from a woman earlier claiming I'd been in a car crash. I told her straight up it was nonsense and told her to remove my number from their list, then hung up.

I gave him the same answer, and no number on record for me.8 yearsJust got calls from this number like 5 times within a few secs on my landline.
