Been getting loads of calls lately on my mobile from the Manchester area, all starting with 0161 738 1***. I never pick up cos I’m usually busy at work. They never leave a voicemail either, which makes me think these are just scam calls done by some auto diallers. If they were legit, surely they’d leave a message or try to reach me somehow. It’s just frustrating how these scammy types manage to get hold of our numbers so easily.

I've been getting loads of calls from the number (0161) 7381000 and it's definitely a scammer ringing me over and over again.

This number, 01617381000, along with a few similar ones, keeps ringing me up loads of times. I’m pretty sure it’s a scam, so I just block it straight away every time.

This number, and others like it, keep ringing me every day, but I just dont pick up since I'm pretty sure it's just some scam.

I've had loads of calls from numbers starting with 0161 but with tiny changes in the digits. I've blocked every single one now 'cause I just don't pick up. When I let it ring through, the answerphone seems to switch on, but there's no message left at all. Definitely a scam call if you ask me.

Got a call from someone claiming I had a PPI claim from years back, which I never did. Then they switched to saying HMRC owed me a tax refund, but I handle my business finances myself so that was rubbish. I just ended the call straight away. The weird thing is it came up as Signal Projects Audio on my caller ID - either a fake name for a scam or they've hijacked their number. I've blocked the number now anyway.

I’ve got my phone set up so that any number not saved in my contacts gets sent straight to voicemail. Just double check you've added important ones like your GP, dentist and so on. If you miss any, it’s no drama - just save 'em and ring back later. Also, I always keep my phone quiet for unknown numbers. And whatever you do, don’t ever ring back if it’s an 0843 number.

Keeps ringing from 0161 7381000, but whenever I pick up, the line just drops or no one talks. The latest time they said something about tax refunds. Honestly, just hang up and block this number, it’s a pain.

How on earth did they get hold of my number?! They claimed I was entitled to a tax refund and insisted I share some personal information. Total con artist behaviour, if you ask me!

I asked him to say the company name again but still couldn't make it out. He was telling me I had a tax refund waiting. Yeah, no thanks!

Beware, it's definitely a scam! If you get a dodgy call, send the number and details to 7726. This helps your phone provider mark that number as a scam if loads of people report it. But remember, don't report legit numbers to that number. You can also forward any scam texts to 7726. Plus, it's a good idea to take a screenshot and email it to the police at '[email protected]' so they can look into it properly.

Looks like this number is registered to Signal Projects Audio Ltd, but judging by what others have said, it might just be someone spoofing it.

Got a call out of the blue about supposedly being mis-sold PPI. The person was so aggressive and kept interrupting me the whole time. They acted like they had way more info on my money situation than I ever gave. Didn’t hang around for long, just blocked the number!
