I've been inundated with calls from a series of 161 numbers in recent months, leading me to swiftly cut the line. They often seem to originate from either Chinese or Indian sources. Most of these irritating interruptions happen during the early hours, just when folks are preparing for their day or commuting to work. It’s becoming quite the nuisance, and I make a point to block them immediately!

Called on 3rd August, and it was just a quick beep from a call centre on my voicemail, no actual message.

Got a call mentioning my washing machine warranty, but they already knew my full address and name. Felt dodgy, definitely a scam.

Got another call from this number today, I picked up but they just ended the call straight away!

They keep ringing me, but never leave a single word on my voicemail, just pure silence. If they wanted to talk, surely they'd leave a message. I've blocked the number now.

They called asking for me by name, but the moment I answered, they just ended the call. As others mentioned, it sounded like a busy call centre in the background. I’m going to block this number for sure.

I found that the call disconnected while I was speaking. Interestingly, just the other week, I received a call about my washing machine warranty.

For years, I've received sporadic calls from these folks. They always inquire for "Mr Shearer" and promptly disconnect the moment I inform them that he isn't a real person. Quite curious, really!

I was looking to "update" my washing machine cover, but things took a turn for the awkward when they started probing with strange questions and the call abruptly ended.

Got a call saying they was from the RFU about my warranty running out on my washing machine. They even knew what model I owned. Told them I already had coverage, but they insisted it was a different one that needed renewing. They kept pushing for my card info, saying the deal was just for today. Could hear a lot of racket in the background too.

I got a call about a warranty for my washing machine, and when I told them I never got one, they insisted it was from almost 5 years ago. I told them my machine is way too old for that, then they just hung up on me.

This number rings me about three or four times every day, and whenever I pick up and say hello, there's no reply. Really getting annoyed with it now.

Absolute rip-off alert with that RFU Washing Machine Cover! Total scam, watch out!

Looking at other posts here, it looks like these calls are mostly scams or people just heavy breathing and not saying a word. Funny thing is, they don’t seem to like it when you do the same back to them.

Got a call claiming they needed to update my bank info for a washing machine insurance renewal. They were really pushy, but when I asked for any proof or references, they couldn’t give me any. I called the genuine company afterwards and they confirmed it was a complete scam.

Sounds like a dodgy call to me. I had a bloke with a Chinese accent on the line claiming that my washing machine’s warranty was about to expire. He was trying to flog some insurance for it by asking for my bank information. Definitely raises a red flag!

Just got another call from 01617381613, and it's the third one in about an hour! They never bother to leave a message either. I usually don't pick up if I don't recognise the number, but these keep coming through. Feels like one of those scam calls to me.

They didn’t leave any message, so I’m guessing it’s a scam.

Had a bloke ring me up about extending the warranty on my washing machine, claiming he was from the company we already use. Complete load of rubbish, nothing but lies. Total scam just trying to make a quick buck.

They ring me every single day and it's proper annoying. I've started ignoring calls now 'cause I don't wanna fall for some dodgy scam from those nasty lot.

So this bloke called me saying my washing machine cover was about to run out and that I was covered with them. He claimed I was, gave me a company name that I tried looking up but couldn’t find any trace of it! He went on, even read out my address and when I told him I wasn’t bothered about renewing it, he just snapped back, “Why didn’t you say that earlier instead of wasting my time?” and then just hung up on me. Proper rude!

Got a call from this number today but I didn’t pick up since it looked unfamiliar. Later I looked it up online and found out it’s linked to a scam.

Don’t say anything if this number calls, it’s definitely dodgy. Best thing to do is block it and maybe tell the police about it.

They called me twice in just a couple of hours today but there was no answer when I picked up. I've gone ahead and blocked the number now.

they keep ringing me up but half the time there’s no one there, just silence. honestly, super irritating!

They keep calling over and over again, don't they have anything better to do? It's pathetic how they just say “goodbye” and then hang up. What a waste of time!
