Take heed, folks! There are individuals out there requesting sensitive personal details concerning Covid vaccinations and health records. These documents are of a legal nature, and they have no entitlement to inquire about your health status. It's crucial to remain vigilant about whom you trust with your private information. Remember, such details should only be divulged to your healthcare professionals or solicitors when absolutely required. Exercise caution and avoid sharing your personal particulars with just anyone!

I just received a call from the number 01664898337. My phone was set to silent, so it didn’t ring. If the number isn't stored in my contacts, all I get is a notification that someone tried to reach me.

I missed a couple calls from this number earlier. When I tried ringing back, I got some automated message saying the number's been shut down because of breaking terms or something. Bit odd, really.

No idea really. Every time I block them. Why on Earth would a company from England ring a Scottish number? We’ve got devolution for a reason, for ####’s sake.

Got a call from some bloke with an Indian accent saying he was from public health and asked if I'd had all my vaccinations, including monkey pox. I asked him to identify himself properly, he just repeated the question then hung up. He'd rung me the previous day as well, but hung up as soon as I picked up. Felt a bit dodgy to me.

Got a call from someone claiming to be with UK Health, but their accent sounded Indian to me. They asked if I was [my name] and mentioned something about my vaccine status possibly being []. I got a bit wary pretty quickly and then the line just went dead on me.

This evening I got a call from a bloke with an Indian accent who said he was calling from the Department of Health and Social Care. When he kicked off by asking how I was, I immediately thought it was one of those scam calls and just ended it right there.

The number was instantly blocked by my phone, so I’m guessing it was a scam attempt given what people have said here.

When I finally answered there was silence and after I put down the phone the line just stuck, it didn’t drop at all. Pretty sure it was some kind of scammer trying their luck.

There was this guy on the phone with a really heavy Asian accent, and honestly, I couldn’t catch a single word. The call was all crackly and poor quality, which made me pretty sure it was a scam. I ended up telling him to buzz off with a classic British phrase.

I don’t answer calls from numbers I don’t recognise anymore - too many spam or scam calls about these days. If I see an unkown number, I just block and ignore it straight away.

This is the third time I've got a call supposedly from Public Health doing some kind of survey. They always kick off by asking if I’ve had all my vaccinations. It’s pretty obvious it’s a scam though - they barely introduce themselves and the connection is always rubbish. Every time I ask for more details about who they really are, they just hang up on me.

I'm proper annoyed with myself! The bloke was from the NHS, or so he said, but I could hardly catch what he was saying. He started asking about the booster jab, and when I said I’d had it, he suddenly asked if I had any life insurance. Without thinking, I said no. Such a daft mistake!

Got a call from 01663898337 earlier. I answered it 'cos my sister's number is pretty close and I thought she was calling. But then the line just went dead. Definitely looks like one of those scam calls to me.

I got a call from 01663898337 just now. Even though I’ve blocked loads of scam numbers, they somehow manage to ring me using a number that’s only a little different each time. I picked up, but there was complete silence on the other end, so I ended the call straight away and blocked the number once more. Such a pain!

Just got a call moments ago from someone claiming to be from the “public health department” with an Asian accent. They mentioned a name that wasn’t mine, so I asked who they actually were. After I told them they’d rung the wrong number, the line went quiet. Felt a bit sketchy to me.
