Got a call from a woman saying I’d agreed to some anti-bullying thing, which was total rubbish. She claimed she was returning my call from October, but I never spoke to her before. This same scam has been going around for years, like 15 or so. I just ended the call and blocked the number straight away. Don’t fall for it, it’s a complete con.

Got a call from someone claiming I signed up to help with an anti-bullying thing - I told them I never did. They asked if I wanted to listen to the recording of me agreeing, I said no idea why I would, then they just ended the call! Proper scammers. Tried ringing back but only got a weird voicemail. Does anybody know where I can report these crooks?

On 20th March 2019, I got a call from someone claiming they provided anti-bullying books back in November and wanted me to pay £240. I asked a few questions about it and then they just cut off the call.

Totally dodgy! They insisted I had said yes to paying £189 for some books meant for the school, but I never agreed to anything like that. Complete rip-off.

i got a call from 0161 7101992, some young woman on the line thanking me for helping out with book donations to schools, she claimed she’d tried ringing me back in early Nov 2018 and told me the books were set to go out to the schools. i told her i’ve never been involved in anything like that before and she just ended the call abruptly.

She started off like she knew me, even said we talked before and the books were all set. But we never actually spoke. When I tried to ask her a few things, she just hung up on me. Bit strange really.

Got a call from a woman in Manchester on 01617101992 claiming I’d agreed to fork out £199 for some anti-bullying books for my local school. She said they’d already sent me a copy and promised a laminated certificate along with a thank you from the head teacher. Sounds like a complete con to me.

some woman rang up out of the blue asking about a job that supposedly we did for a school and wanted to give us some updates. I said no way am I passing her through to the owner of the company, then she got all high and mighty, threatening to ring the boss on his mobile and grass me up.

Got a call today from some woman with an accent claiming I’d donated to a child safety magazine - which I definitely haven’t. She even knew my name, which was a bit creepy. Looks like one of those classic scams that keep changing just a little each time. Be careful, folks!
