Had a missed call from a number with nothing but some muffled sounds on the line. No one spoke—just a bit of noise in the background. Quite odd really!

This number keeps buzzing my phone, yet they hang up before I can pick up. I've had quite enough of them, so they've now been blocked!

Had two calls from 01635896116. I've now blocked it.

I received a call from a chap named Eric, apparently in relation to COVID. Honestly, I wasn’t in the right frame of mind for it today, so I told him to take a hike. I've since blocked the number.

I received a similar call today and it jogged my memory about a previous one from a number in Newbury roughly three months back. Whatever you do, don’t share any personal details. I’m certain it's a scam!

I received a call from someone with an unusual accent who actually mentioned my name during the conversation. They claimed to be in touch regarding my Tesco Bank account, but the thing is, I don’t even have an account with Tesco Bank!

I've had a rather concerning experience where individuals pretending to be from a COVID vaccination hub reached out to me. They inquired whether I had received the vaccine and, if so, how many doses I'd had. It felt quite suspicious!

I received a call from this number, where a voice with an Asian accent claimed to be associated with the NHS Covid department. I expressed my scepticism about his identity, and to my astonishment, he became rather irate, insisting, “I’m not an idiot, you know!” before abruptly ending the call. Clearly, this is a con.

cuts the call unexpectedly

They enquired whether I required assistance, then abruptly ended the call on me. Quite baffling, really!

Received a call from this number, but they ended the call abruptly.

I received a call from this number with someone inquiring about my COVID vaccinations. They were particularly keen to know if I experienced any side effects and similar medical queries. I wasn't comfortable disclosing any personal information over the phone, so I decided to hang up.

My phone marked the call as suspicious, but curiosity got the better of me and I picked up. The caller was probing about my COVID vaccinations and side effects before abruptly shifting to my life insurance. I mentioned that I was in cyber fraud prevention and planned to investigate him, which seemed to thrill him! He exclaimed, “We’re chums, both part of the GOV team! What a wonderful day this is!” 😐 When I inquired if he had my details in front of him, he affirmed with a “yes.” So, I asked him for my full name, and he only gave my nickname, the one I use online and with close family. I told him that I wasn’t aware of the GOV department he was affiliated with, but he clearly had the wrong information. Just as I was hanging up, I could catch him mumbling, “No, don’t hang up, miss, I just misspoke!” Do yourself a favour and block these clowns!

I received a call from a chap named Derek who seemed to be inquiring about my COVID vaccinations. When I mentioned that my vaccination details are documented in my medical records—information he would presumably have if he was indeed representing the NHS—his response lacked clarity. It raised a few eyebrows, to say the least!

I received a call from an Indian gentleman who opened the conversation by using my first name and inquired whether I had received both vaccine doses. Curious, I asked for his name, and he mentioned he was called David Freeman – funny, isn’t that the name of a character from that old film, Flight of the Navigator? I couldn’t help but chuckle! When I probed him about the company he represented, he abruptly ended the call. How odd!

I received a rather shady phone call today from what purported to be a Covid-19 Helpdesk, likely from an overseas call centre. They were attempting to gather details about my vaccine status. However, when I requested my NHS number from them, the individual provided a completely fabricated reference that didn’t even resemble an NHS number—it was far too brief! The conversation ended abruptly when I pressed him about his actual location and the true purpose behind the call. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!

As soon as I picked up the phone, the caller terminated the call abruptly.

Rang me up and then promptly cut off as soon as I answered. How incredibly rude!

I couldn’t get to the phone in time.

Received a call inquiring about Covid vaccines and their possible side effects. They seemed intent on grilling me with even more questions. Clearly just nuisance spammers! Best to steer clear of these types.

provided no responses at all*

I received a call from an individual with an Indian accent, probing me about my vaccination status regarding Covid. He bombarded me with numerous questions, but I found myself without any answers. Eventually, I decided to hang up. It really felt like a scam or some sort of fraudulent attempt!

I received a call that purported to be from the NHS or Public Health. They initially inquired about my vaccination background and any symptoms I might have been experiencing, but then they quickly shifted the conversation toward life insurance, asking for personal details. I have a strong suspicion this is a scam. I would suggest hanging up immediately!

I received a rather suspicious call from an Indian gentleman concerning the Covid-19 vaccinations. He inquired whether I had received both jabs and then proceeded to ask about my health symptoms. He claimed to represent the 'National Health Services', but his information about me didn’t add up, which set off alarm bells. I'm convinced this was a fraudulent call.
