It was really slow for someone to answer, then whatever they said was so muffled I couldnt understand, suddenly the call just dropped. Definitely some sort of scam going on.

Got a call from this number, sounded like just a robot talking, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked it now.

This number phoned me twice before. I tried calling back today since the code looked like it was from Manchester, but it just ended up on voicemail.

I received a call from someone claiming to represent Magrathea Telecommunications. It struck me as rather dubious, to be honest. I wouldn’t trust that number if I were you.

So I got a call from a place called "Magrathea Telecommunications" which sounded really dodgy to me, considering Magrathea is some made-up planet from Douglas Adams' "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy". Definitely feels like some kind of scam to me!

Some random number called me, but the person didn’t say who they were. No clue whose number it even is.

I got a call from this number earlier but when I picked up there was nobody there. I’ve blocked it now.
