Felt a bit weird, like one of those silent calls.6 yearsSounds like one of those dodgy calls from India or Pakistan again, you can tell straight away by the slight Asian accent. These lot sit in tiny, sweaty call centres making loads of cash by ripping folks off across Europe and the States. It’d be brilliant if they actually got caught, but honestly, that’s about as likely as someone popping to the moon and returning!IndiaPakistanEuropeStates6 yearsThis number just popped up on my missed calls.6 yearsMy dad got a call from someone claiming to be Amazon, saying his account was about to expire and he needed to pay £79. Thing is, he doesn’t even use Amazon! Total scam right there.Amazon6 yearsGot a call from this number, it was an automated voice saying they’re charging me £99.99 for my Amazon Prime subscription. It said press 2 if I want to cancel.

Still, the threat of an unexpected charge might make some people fall for it and end up chatting with them, which is worrying.Amazon PrimeAmazon6 yearsI answered the call and was greeted by a robot voice claiming it was Amazon, saying £99.99 would be withdrawn from my account. They told me to hit 1 if I didn’t want Amazon Prime. I didn’t press anything because it felt dodgy. The call came from 0161 799 7182 - definitely a scam.AmazonAmazon Prime6 yearsGot a call on my landline earlier, I picked up and some recording started saying it was Amazon Prime and that they'd be automatically renewing my subscription for £79.99.

The weird part is I don’t have, nor ever had, an Amazon Prime account!Amazon PrimePrime6 yearsGot another call today at my parents’ place, some fake Amazon Prime scam.
