Shows up as possible scam.

Got a call from 0161 850 2852, some Indian bloke. He kept asking for my husband, saying he was calling from a detox centre or something. Definitely felt dodgy, probably a scam.

I usually just ignore calls from that number since they never bother to leave a voicemail or say who they are.

This was definitely some dodgy scam call.

This number rings me daily but I never pick up. When I tried calling back, there was just some music playing on a loop. Another time, I got a call on my phone and they claimed it was the world lottery. They told me if I wasn’t interested, I should ring their customer service instead. Sounds a bit fishy to me!

I've received a call from 01618302852 for the third time today, but the duration of the ring seems to be decreasing each time. I've decided not to pick up. I’m well aware of the scam artists these days, so perhaps I’ll just waste their time instead!

I keep getting calls from this number a few times daily, but since I don’t know who it is, I just ignore it. Figured I’d report it here and mark it as annoying or harassing.

It feels as though they're pressuring you into borrowing money.

I keep putting this number on my block list but it just rings me like 4 or 5 times daily.

Got a call from 01618502852 yesterday claiming I had some money due for a car loan. Thing is, I've never even had a finance deal on any car. Bit bizarre if you ask me.

I keep receiving calls from someone claiming that I took out car finance a decade ago and that I'm entitled to a refund. The thing is, I’ve never had any car finance in the first place! It's becoming rather irritating.

They kept ringing me like four times every day, so I just ended up blocking them.

I got a call from a bloke who only knew my name, nothing else. He was saying I might have paid too much for my car insurance before and wanted to ask some questions to check if I could get a refund. Didn’t share any details with him and ended the call pretty quick. Not really sure who they were, but if you’re not certain, best just to hang up and don’t give them any more info than what they already know!

I suspected this was just another nuisance call, so I decided to cut the line.

This number rang me twice today, claiming I owe money from a car I bought. I only deal in cash! They really ought to find a proper job instead of bothering people like this!

When he asked if it was ***** speaking, I played it cool and said yes since I was kinda expecting a call. But then, out of nowhere, they just hung up on me!

Got a call from someone saying they're from a finance firm telling me I was owed some money back. Thing is, I've never taken out a loan or anything like that. Smells like a scam to me.

Got a call about some PPI claim, they even mentioned my car info, yet I've never taken out any finance on it. Seems like a total scam to me.

Got a call from a woman with a foreign accent saying she was from Magnum Claims. She said I could claim PPI on my car finance, but I told her I don’t drive and never had any car finance. She kept asking if I’d ever had car finance, I told her no again, then she just hung up. The weird bit was she only used my first name and didn’t check if she’d dialled the right number. Seems like a scam to me. I’m really curious how they get hold of this info in the first place.

Who's the individual that just rang me?

I wouldn’t bother picking up - it’s just a pre-recorded message. Save yourself the hassle and go ahead and block this number.

Received a call from someone who knew my name and asked about the Volkswagen I bought. They said they could assist me with the finance that I supposedly got tricked into. When I pressed them, they refused to tell me how they got my information. To be clear, I’ve never financed a car; I’ve only used personal loans, and definitely not for my VW. This is just another dodgy spammer. If you spot a missed call from them, don’t waste your time trying to ring back!

I usually just keep the phone on when those annoying calls come through with a number showing, let them waste their money. Then I head out to grab some food, best way to deal with those pests!

I called the number back thinking it might be someone trying to reach me, but ended up on an automated line asking stuff about accident info.

Got a recorded call saying i was being watched and could be prosecuted. Tried calling back but the number wasn’t on the list. When someone finally answered, they just hung up and a robot voice said ‘goodbye’. Definitely seems like a scam to me. I’ll be reporting it to the cops.
