Received loads of calls from someone pretending to be Amazon Prime. Keeps telling me to press one if I want to update my subscription terms. Definitely a scam, so watch out!

You just get that feeling, dont you? Someone calling, saying "hello love, how you doing today?" but it’s obviously not British Gas, sounds like a dodgy foreign accent trying to pretend. Totally fishy.

Got a call from 01617100561, started off with "how's it going, mate?" Right from the get-go, felt like a total scam. These lot are dodgy as hell, steer clear if you know what's good for you. So convincing, it’s unreal!

kept ringing me up loads. this time some bloke with a strong accent (he sounded proper dodgy when off his script) said he was “heather” from "scott energy" and called himself an energy broker. he tried to sell me a deal on electric and landline. said he could sort gas too, but claimed I don’t have any gas supply?! wouldn’t drop it even when i said no thanks.

after i kept asking 3 times what firm he was ringing from, he finally said british gas. oddly though, he was really pushing an electricity deal. i made it clear i wasn’t having any of it and told him to get lost. i’ve blocked the number now so hopefully no more calls from them.

Got a really cheeky call from someone claiming they were from a games firm, trying to push a contract on me. Totally not impressed with their attitude!

They were claiming to be from BT, and when I told them to remove our number from their list, they started threatening to keep ringing us nonstop. I’ve just blocked their number now.
