I got a call from some accident claims lot, and the woman on the phone had a Chinese accent. When I asked her which crash she meant, she got really annoyed with me. After a bit, an Indian bloke came on and started asking how many people were in my car during the accident. I told him straight off I hadn’t been in any accident and called him a parasite - he ended the call right away. Looks like just another scam, so this number’s definitely going straight to my blocked list.

Got a call on my landline from a bloke with an Indian accent asking about a car crash I supposedly had. I kept asking what company he was with, but couldn’t catch what he was saying properly. In the end, I just ended the call, knowing it was pointless.

I got a call from a private number, but they just cut off as soon as I picked up. Then another call came through from 0161818542, which seemed a bit dodgy. The bloke on the line spoke with a foreign accent and claimed it was about a car crash I supposedly had, which wasn’t true at all. I ended the call straight away while he was still chatting and didn’t say anything. From now on, I’ll be way more careful about picking up weird numbers, especially ones that look incomplete.

This number appears to be dodgy; they didn't utter a word, and the brevity of the digits is rather peculiar.

The area code gave off a Manchester vibe, but the number itself was shorter than usual, so I reckon it’s a fake. The voice on the other end sounded like it was coming from abroad, definitely not local.

I got a call from this number on my home phone, but when I picked up, it was dead silent and they ended the call right away.

I rang the number and no one picked up, but then I heard some robotic voice say "goodbye." Pretty weird.

I got a call from 0161818542, picked up but no one said a word. I ended up hanging up pretty quick, seems like it could be one of those scam calls.

Got a call around 7 in the evening claiming to do some kind of market research. Told them I wasn’t interested, even mentioned I’m on the TPS and my number’s ex-directory. Still, they keep ringing. I’ve blocked it now but it somehow manages to get through. Watch out for this!

I didn't hear a single word; they simply disconnected the call. I'm registered with the Telephone Preference Service, so I'm quite puzzled as to how they managed to obtain my number.

Got a weird call from a number that seemed dodgy right away. They kept going on about some car accident I supposedly had and wanted to check the details. Problem is, I haven’t been in a crash for like ten years, so I knew it was a scam. I played along for a bit, just to waste their time, but they never gave me any real info. Total nonsense.

Got a weird call from a number that looked like it might be from Manchester but the digits didn’t quite add up. All I heard was a robotic voice saying “goodbye” before the call cut off on its own. Feels like it was testing if my phone was actually active. Definitely going to block that number now!

A rather quiet phone call, that was...

They rang me up saying it was about a car crash I was in recently. Told me not to drive or get in any cars. After I mentioned I’m single, they started asking really personal stuff about my marriage. Quite suspicious if you ask me!

This number seems to be incomplete, as it falls short of the required seven digits following the 0161 code. Quite clearly, it’s a fraudulent scheme at play here!
