Honestly, I’m fed up with these constant calls every single day from this number and its scam operation! It’s been going on for nearly a month now. What’s the point in reporting it all the time if nothing gets done? Someone really needs to shut it down!

A bloke kept phoning, trying to scare folks with some security nonsense. I didn’t let him go on too long. He rang the day before too, but I just got an automated message when I answered. Told him straight away to stop calling or else.

Got two calls from this number today and my phone flagged them as spam. Didn’t pick up and have now blocked the number.

Got a call earlier today, 14.6.23. A bloke with an accent I couldn't place asked about our home security. What really struck me was that he already knew our name, which is a bit worrying - feels like someone must have given our details away. We only picked up because we were waiting for a ring from relatives.

This number rang me, but as soon as I picked up, they just went silent and then hung up. I checked the comments here and lots of people say the same. I've blocked the number now, but I guess they'll just switch to a different one soon.

This number rang my grandma in Hull about her home security stuff. She didn’t bother with them, just cut the call and let me know straight away. Better safe than sorry, don’t give them any details or chat with them at all.

Just had another call from someone with an accent, probably a scammer trying to push some useless security stuff on me. Typical annoying telemarketer!

I got a call from a blocked number offering security alarms for a place I haven't lived in over three years. When I told them I'm currently living in a shelter, they just hung up straight away. Proper dodgy call if you ask me.

Didn’t bother to leave a voicemail; seems like just another random sales call, if you ask me.

Got two missed calls on my answer phone but no messages left. Tried to block them on 1572 but can only block the most recent call, so ended up blocking a different one. These scammers are really annoying, hope they just stop soon.

Got a call from some bloke claiming he worked for home security. He actually knew my name and where I live! I told him straight away he must have dialled the wrong number and just hung up. Then I put him on block. Honestly, it’s disgusting how people go about this.

I usually don’t pick up calls from numbers I don’t recognise anymore, there’s just too many scammers about. I just search the number on this site first to see who it might be.

Total scam alert. The caller said they were from Magrathea Telecomunications - sounded like a nod to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy or something! If I remember right, Magrathea's this abandoned planet with a crazy robot shield around it. What a weird name to pick for a company!

No idea who that was.

I keep getting calls from this lot on my home phone. They never leave any voicemail and when I pick up they say they're some kind of security company. Feels like they’re just fishing to see who hasn’t got home security set up. Honestly, I wouldn’t bother talking to them at all!

Got a call out of the blue, and they actually addressed me by my first name. Claimed they were with a local home security company. I just told them I’m not interested, hung up, and blocked the number straight away. Honestly, who falls for some random stranger ringing up about home security?
