Just got a call, sounded like a utility scam trying to trick me. Be careful everyone!

The person on the phone claimed it was a survey, but refused to say what it was about until the very end. Like, seriously, I want to know who’s asking before I even say a word! So annoying!

I didn’t pick up since I was out at the time.

Got a phone call about some energy grant scam. I decided to reply in Russian, thinking maybe they’d get confused - guess I was raised in a world that feels pretty outdated now. Maybe one day a scammer who actually speaks Russian will ring me, but not this time. After a bit they seemed to catch on and just ended the call. Blocked the number straight away and flagged it on ScamBlaster to help drown them in complaints. I don’t lose my temper, but I sure do pay them back.

I received a call from someone purporting to be a local energy consultant. He had my complete name and postcode, which was rather unsettling. His accent was distinctly foreign, prompting me to terminate the call. Just a heads up to everyone out there!

They kept ringing me a bunch of times but never left a message, and when I did pick up, there was no one there. Seemed dodgy to me, probably a scam.

Got a call from someone called Sam about windows and doors, he wanted to make sure I owned the place.

Even tho we're on the TPS and have our number ex-directory, these scammers just won't stop ringing us. It's ridiculous how persistent they are!

got a call from some bloke called chris sayin he was from a local energy saving firm. he reckoned my loft insulation needed updating or summat. bit odd tho, coz the number had a manchester area code and i'm well over 300 miles away from there. i just let him ramble for a bit then quietly ended the call.

I've been getting calls for the third time now from numbers beginning with 01618 205, but the final three digits keep changing. Could be a trick to dodge call blockers? They never leave a voicemail either.

Never seen the number before, I was out when they called.

Got a call from a bloke named Chris who said he was from some local energy saving service. I wasn’t bothered and just hung up straight away. He kept saying he was local, but the area code on the phone looked like it was from Manchester, which is miles away from where I live. Felt a bit dodgy to me.

Just got a call about my loft insulation again, total scam as usual. Nothing but rubbish trying to pull the same old trick.

The phone rang, but before I could answer, the caller abruptly disconnected.

They didn't bother to leave a voicemail, so I doubt it’s anything worth worrying about.
