Got a call and the guy asked for me by name. My missus asked what it was regarding. He said he deals with big banks and insurers but wouldn’t say which company, insisted he needed to talk to me directly! Sounded like he had an Asian accent. The missus just ended the call.

‭0161 808 0188‬ (also ‭0161 464 3204‬) has been phoning me, using my full name and pushing for a finance review. They keep ringing from various numbers but sound like the same outfit. Seems like a scam to me, pretty dodgy and possibly risky.

They phoned me again. This time I managed to talk to some bloke called Jason, sounded foreign. He jumped straight into his sales chat, and I kept asking what company he was with but he just couldn’t explain it properly. Kept telling me about switching my life insurance but kept getting my name wrong the entire time. Then the call just died out. I reckon it’s a scam.

I got a call from someone saying they were improving my life insurance and lowering the cost since I’d had the policy for ages and always paid on time. Then they began asking about my health and wanted to know my age. I asked why they didn’t have this info since they supposedly had my policy details. They said it was a security thing and I should just trust them. I told them I didn’t get it and asked for my policy number. They just said, “You talk too much, bye” and hung up.

They asked if I'd had an accident, so I told them my spaceship smashed into some huge white thing in the sky and if I’d get any kind of payout for just floating round Earth these past 5 years waiting for the AA.

Rang me when I was in the loo, didn’t know the number but figured it was time for a little payback. The accent was pretty hard to understand and the company name made no sense, all about life insurance apparently. I told them I’d passed away yesterday but they just didn’t get it and asked how I’m even able to pick up the phone. So, I said I was a ghost. The bloke yelled and hung up right away.

At about 5.15pm my answerphone picked up a call. There was loads of crackling noise in the background before a voice said “Leave me alone Jon” and then it ended. It seemed more like some sort of scam than someone in trouble, so I decided not to ring back.

Got a call from this number, but when I picked up, it was silent for like 6-7 seconds before the call dropped. I called back and a lady with a foreign accent said just "Hello?" I told her I got a call from that number earlier. She asked if I was someone else (a name that’s definitely not mine) and I said no. She said sorry and that she’d taken my number off their list. No clue who she was or what the call was about.
6 years
I rang the number back, and a bloke on the other end claimed to be from Aviva and Legal & General. The whole thing felt a bit dodgy, especially when he started bringing up life insurance. I politely told him to send me the details in writing and promptly hung up. Upon doing a bit of digging, I discovered that the number actually belongs to a care home! How bizarre!

Had a guy with an Indian accent ring me up claiming he was from Legal & General, trying to get me to upgrade my plan. Weird thing is, the call came just a couple of days after I’d actually phoned L&G myself - first time in like 4 years! Definitely some kind of scam, feels like they must’ve taped my original call or something.

Got a call from someone with an Asian accent, claiming to sell life insurance. He wanted to know my surname first, then my first name. I played along for a minute, then just stopped him and asked what scam he was pulling this time. Didn’t hang around after that and blocked the number. Absolute muppets! 💢👊💢

Got a call on 7th May and when I picked up, there was a small pause before they asked for me by my first name. Then they started talking about my life insurance. I asked which one, and they mentioned a policy I paid off like 8 years back. When I double-checked if they had the right person, they fumbled with my surname. I told them my surname is “getalifeyousadc***”, which usually shuts down cold callers straight away, but sadly it’s too long to put on my car plate!

When I tried calling back the number, it didn’t come up at all - seems like it might be spoofed or something. Does anyone have any idea who it might be?
