Honestly, I don’t see the point of this since it’s clearly a well-known annoying caller and nothing ever seems to get done about it.

I’m registered with the TPS, yet this call came through from some overseas outfit, supposedly for an accident insurance firm. I couldn’t really catch what they were saying ‘cause of the heavy accent. I honestly think they had no right to cold call me like that. Also, I found it really annoying that they tried pulling that stunt about me having had an accident - what a nonsense way to market!

Since I switched to Talktalk, I’ve been getting nonstop calls from some dodgy scammers, probably from Asia or somewhere like that. They kept saying they got “hacked” when I asked about it, but honestly, I reckon Talktalk must be selling our info to them. It’s just too much of a coincidence to be anything else.

this number just seems to mess about and waste your time with rubbish, nothing useful at all.

At around 1:44 this afternoon, I got a call from 01618182443. The bloke on the other end had a pretty thick Asian accent and rudely told me to "go to hell." Not the nicest call I've had, honestly.

Lately I've been getting loads of silent calls, it’s started happening a lot since my info got leaked when TalkTalk got hacked. Along with that, the spam emails have gone through the roof as well. It’s so annoying and I honestly don’t know how to put an end to it. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I could catch these people and make them cut it out?

Got a call from some Indian call centre claiming to be for a UK insurance firm. The number seemed to be from the US though. Surely, the phone company like BT or Virgin Media should do something about these calls and stop them? Or am I off base here?

Had this call from some Indian scammer claiming to be "Accident Helpline" telling me I’d been in some crash. I told them straight up - no way I was in any accident! Then I just told them to get lost and slammed the phone down. Honestly, can’t believe they still haven’t sorted these scammers out here in the UK. It’s ridiculous!

Some scammer rang me up about an accident or something, but I could tell he was speaking from a busy call centre with all the background noise. At first, he wouldn’t believe me when I said I hadn’t been in any accident! I told him if he called again I’d report it, then just ended the call.

About that car crash scam - when they ring, just say you've actually passed away! They usually hang up right away. If they keep pushing, tell them it's your spirit on the line and you'll be haunting them for ever!

Picked up the phone and got nothing but silence, then they just cut the call. Really weird and a bit unsettling.

I got a call today but when I answered, there was total silence. I said hello a couple of times and waited but nobody said anything, so I just ended the call.

Got a call from a foreign bloke, sounded like he was from one of those call centres. He was asking me about an accident I apparently had recently. I told him to jog on or I'd ring the coppers, then hung up straight away. This happened on 18-08-2017 between 17:00 and 26 past, if I remember right.

Got a call earlier from a guy who sounded Asian, saying I'd been in some kind of accident. Totally false. When I told him that wasn't the case, he said maybe someone in my family was involved. I told him to stop ringing me or I'd have to report it to the police as harassment - but he didn't seem fussed at all.

Got a call from a guy named Robert, sounded Asian, saying there was a report about me being in a car crash. I was like, "Wow, really? When did that happen? Am I seriously hurt?" Just as I finished, he’d already gone and hung up on me! Felt good to turn the tables on them for once.

Got calls from this number four times. First three times, as soon as I answered and said hi, they ended the call right away. On the fourth call, I stayed quiet and when they started talking, I yelled HELLO HELLO HELLO as loud as possible. They hung up pretty quickly after that.

They cut the call really fast, no idea who it was. Pretty clear it was a scam tho.

Got a call from an Asian lady claiming I’d been in some kind of accident. She then said someone had actually reported I was in a crash. When I asked her which accident she meant, she just cut me off. Pretty strange.

So I got a call from this guy with an Indian accent, asking if I’d been in some kind of crash. I just played along and kept asking him to explain what happened since he seemed to have all the info. After a bit, he got proper annoyed and told me to f##k off, not once but twice, and then slammed the phone down. Made my day lol.

Got a call from a woman with a thick Indian accent, really pushy, saying either I or a relative had been in an accident. Took me a few tries to get her to explain how she even got my phone number, but she just got more aggressive, mumbling about some accident. This number rings me a bunch of times, usually just brush it off.

Got a call from some call centre, trying to chat about an accident that never even happened. Quite odd!
