Just like loads of others have said, they asked for my credit card info when I was trying to sign up for a supposedly free online course, and I immediately pulled out. Now I've blocked the number, really wish I hadn’t wasted my time with it 😕

Saw an ad on Facebook about a free four week course from Shaw Academy online. When they asked for my card info, I decided no thanks and backed off. Later I looked them up and found out they’re actually based out of Ireland, but lots of other websites said they’ve been losing their accreditation. Seems like a lot of people have now blocked them and labelled them as scammy. Wouldn’t trust them at all.

I recently signed up for a complimentary course at Shaw Academy but when I reached the payment section, I decided against it and simply closed the page without completing any details. I have no plans to pursue it further. Almost immediately after, I started receiving calls from this number. In fact, they rang me six times the next day! The voicemails left are eerily quiet. It’s evident this is a dodgy operation. I'm definitely going to block them!

I refrained from finishing my sign-up after stumbling upon some alarming reviews on Trustpilot about *Shaw* Academy. Yet, they've still managed to send me emails, which I promptly trashed, and even had the audacity to ring me at 10 in the evening while I was trying to get some rest! I've since blocked their number and opted out, but I'm really worried they might find alternative methods to pester me.

Was trying to sign up for a free 4 week english course but the form asked for my bank info. I didn’t actually complete the sign up since I was uncomfortable, but I did share some personal details. Now they keep ringing me from these numbers 08081967893 and 01618506662. Bit annoying really.

Tried to join Shaw Academy’s free trial, but once they asked for my card details, I just quit the process. Still, they went ahead and bombarded me with emails and texts pushing me to finish signing up. I asked them to stop messaging me, but then they rang and left an automated message urging me to complete my registration. Honestly, they seem pretty sketchy. Best to steer clear.

I recently terminated my association with Shaw Academy, and shortly after, I found myself receiving a call from this number-within just an hour, no less! I opted not to pick up, but was left with a voicemail that was filled to the brim with what sounded like a jumbled Chinese conversation. Quite baffling!

Hello there! I can relate to your experience. I recently decided to cancel my course with Shaw Academy online as well. Since then, I've been receiving calls from this number too. Oddly enough, there's never anyone on the line when I answer. Quite peculiar, isn't it?

Is it spam or a scam? Don't really know. I went ahead and reported it to action fraud like they recommend. Hopefully, if loads of folks report it too, the police might look into it and if it turns out to be a scam, they’ll catch 'em.

I’ve been getting loads of calls and messages too after checking out Shaw academy. Hung up once they asked for my bank info, but I’d already given them my phone number and email. Tried texting STOP but it won’t go through. I’ve unsubscribed now but honestly, I don’t expect that to stop anything.

Shaws Academy caught my attention with their 'free 4 weeks creative course,' so I thought I'd check it out. Silly me for handing over my phone number, but as soon as they asked for my card info, I quickly closed the page. After that, I got called like six times in just 30 minutes! I've blocked the number now, but wow, they really wouldn’t give up.

I received a call shortly after I was browsing through an advertisement for the Shaw Academy Project Management Course on Facebook.

Every scam call or text is basically a stealing attempt and should be reported straight away to the cops. It’s simple and fast to do and you don’t have to sign up for anything. Just search for 'action fraud', pick the website that ends with 'police.uk', then hit the 'reporting' tab. From there, go into the phishing scam section and keep scrolling past the email stuff until you find the form to report the number and scam. There’s said to be hundreds of thousands of these scams all over the UK daily, but hardly anyone actually tells the police. That’s where the trouble lies.

Got a call from this Manchester number around 7:45pm. I don't know anyone there, so I didn’t answer. Then I got an automated message in an Irish accent saying something about me starting a ‘free’ creative writing course. I never got that far, stopped when they asked for my card info. Definitely blocking this one!

Got a robo call this morning at 8 am from some automated voice saying I owed HMRC money and to press a button. Yeah, right. Surely HMRC don’t start work that early! Besides, I’ve got an accountant who handles all my stuff and says I don’t owe a penny. Total scam.

I received a rather dubious automated call claiming that the HM Revenue and Customs was preparing to take legal action against me. It prompted me to press 1 for further information. Once I did, I was met with a cacophony of background office chatter and a voice with an Asian accent inquiring about my needs. It was all quite suspicious, so I decided to end the call.
