8 years0161 818 2005 - 7th December 2018 - around 11 in the morning - Received a call from this number playing a nasty pre-recorded message. When I phoned back using a different mobile, a man with a strong South Asian accent (maybe from India, Pakistan, or Bangladesh) answered. He was incredibly rude and aggressive, spoke over me the entire time, and honestly felt quite unpleasant to deal with. Having a decent conversation was impossible. Planning to ring them again and record it this time, then upload the call to my Youtube for everyone to hear.IndiaPakistanBangladeshYoutube8 yearsGot a call on my mobile from a robotic woman with an American accent claiming to be from the Inland Revenue. She warned there’d be serious trouble if either me or my lawyer didn’t ring back.
