Got a call asking if I was taking warfarin, quite random really.

Got a call saying it was about my life insurance. When I asked which provider it was, the bloke said Legal and General. I told him straight up I’ve never had anything with them or any other firm since my life cover is through my work’s insurance. Funny enough, these lot have rung me before claiming they’re from my employer! Total con artists. Best steer clear and don’t waste your time with them.

I received a rather unexpected phone call from someone who introduced herself as Samantha, insisting she wanted to discuss my life insurance policy. She mentioned reviewing my current coverage and implied she could offer me a more advantageous deal. However, I chose to withhold my personal information from her, partly due to her pronounced Asian accent which made me a tad apprehensive.

Got a call from a guy with loads of noise in the background saying he was from Legal and General insurance, checking up on policyholders. He asked how I was doing. When I told him the noise was really loud, he shifted the phone and started over. Same script - asked how I was again. When I asked if he was actually going to say why he was calling or if he was just checking on me, he just hung up. I looked up the number, but it just goes to a busy tone after a bit. Double-checked with Legal and General, and apparently, they aren't behind these calls.

There was loads of noise in the background, which made me suspicious straight away. The bloke rang asking for a Mr XXX, using my mum’s last name, which isn’t even related to mine. No idea how he got that info, but I told him he’d got the wrong number and he quickly backed off. Pretty sure it was a scam.

Got a call from a lady who sounded South African, talking about my life insurance. She wouldn’t tell me what company she was from or where she got my phone number. When I asked a few questions, she got really rude and aggressive. I ended up telling her to bugger off and quit wasting my time. Blocked the number straight away. Honestly, shouldn’t this kind of behaviour be illegal?

Is it possible for me to chat with this lady? I believe she’s involved in some sort of scam.

Just like a lot of others, I was a bit suspicious at first, thought it might be a scam. There was this lady with a strong foreign accent who was a bit hard to make out. I let her carry on and then she connected me to a company called Quote Easy. Turns out, it was legit! I ended up getting a real life insurance policy from the provider I already use, but at a better price. I even have all the emails from the company to prove it.

Was on the phone waiting for a builder, whose company has almost the same number. When the caller asked for Sammy Malik, I immediately figured it was dodgy since I'd gotten similar calls a while back. Best just to block that number, honestly.

The call lasted only a few seconds and I could barely hear them over a noisy call centre. They finally said they were trying to sell life insurance. I told them I was on the TPS list and not interested, and then the person snapped, "Why do you even have a phone then?" before suddenly hanging up.

Just got a call from someone talking about life insurance, said something about Aviva. I’ve never even thought about getting life insurance, so that was suspicious. The person sounded like they were shouting into a gale or something. Ended up hanging up straight away. Seemed proper dodgy to me!

This number called me trying to sell stuff, but I cut the person off before she even got to the pitch and asked if she wanted a date instead, seemed nice enough. She politely said no thanks... I got a bit annoyed and told her she’s missing out on a good catch since I’ve got a steady disability benefit income. She promptly hung up, honestly, made my day.

Got a call from some loud call centre trying to get me to look at my life insurance. They kept dropping names like Aviva, Vitality, and Royal London all in one go. Felt really fishy, like they just wanted me to hand over personal details under the pretense of offering a 'great deal.' They claimed to be calling from Manchester but sounded like a script. Then the bloke said he’d put me through to a manager or a ‘senior advisor’ or something - definitely seemed dodgy to me.

Someone rang asking to speak to my missus. When I asked who it was, the bloke snapped back with “who’s this?” I tried to find out who he was again, but he just demanded to know where my wife was. After I asked once more who he actually was, he got more obnoxious and just hung up on me.

I was on the phone trying to get some info about my life insurance, but this person couldn’t confirm a single detail about my existing policy. I just wanted to ask a couple of questions to pass on to their supervisor. She didn’t seem to get that it wasn’t really a review if she had no clue about me or my plan. Then she rattled off a few insurance companies like she just assumed I was with one of them. Honestly felt like a sneaky call fishing for my details. I ended up hanging up because she wasn’t taking no for an answer.

I got a ring from a 01642 number, which is Middlesbrough, right where I live. Naturally, I picked up to see who it was. The woman on the other end asked if I was the person she thought I was. I shot back with a "that kinda depends, who’s asking?" and she got all annoyed, saying “What do you mean it depends, who are you then?” before just hanging up on me. Weird call!
