Got a call from someone with a strong Indian accent, claimed to be named ‘Philip’ but said that wasn’t his real name. He told me they were calling about a Microsoft computer and warned that a certain program had to be blocked. Nothing about it felt right, pretty sure it was a scam. This all happened here in Manchester.

I received a call from some chap who struggled to string together a proper sentence in English, claiming he was representing my bank. When I inquired about which bank, he dodged the question and proceeded to quiz me about whether I required home insurance or any other kind. He even had the audacity to ask if I was satisfied with my mortgage! Honestly, how on earth can these individuals possibly turn a profit? Who in their right mind would trust them with sensitive bank information?

I received a call from someone with an accent that sounded quite foreign, and they were after my bank details. As soon as I caught on, I promptly hung up.

I've received a few calls from this number lately, and they tend to be rather pushy when you inquire about their identity or how they obtained my contact details. I've decided to put a stop to it and have now blocked the number.

I picked up and as soon as I said hello, they cut the call straight away. Blocked them right off!
