They kept calling over and over asking to talk to my husband. He had picked up one of their calls before but just ended it when they told him his Mi rooftop might get disconnected.

Got a ring from this number claiming to be Virgin Media about some internet issue, told them to ring back when my husband was around, and they just cut off. Seems like a total scam to me.

I got a call from someone claiming to be with Microsoft. She started asking me questions about my computer, but I told her I don’t actually own one. Then I just ended the call by saying goodbye.

Just now, I got a call from what sounded like the same sort of place. When I picked up, there was complete silence, and I didn’t mention my number or anything. I could hear noises like someone was in an office, though I reckon it was probably fake. As soon as I told them to identify themselves, they just hung up.

Didn’t pick up, sounded like a scam call to me.

It's quite baffling how some folks manage to procure a phone number when you haven’t a clue who they are. And the idea of someone firing up a computer while they're tucked up in bed, patiently waiting for their caregivers to arrive, leaves me scratching my head. How do they manage that, I wonder?

They didn't bother to leave a voicemail.

Got a call at about 2.45pm on Wednesday the 18th of October 2023. I picked up but there was silence from the other side, so I just hung up. I get calls like this quite often and they’re really annoying, I just see them as nuisance calls.

I kept throwing silly questions at her and she got all flustered, ended up hanging up on me. Definitely a scam, I don’t even own a computer.

Got a call from a number I didn’t know. When I picked up, it just went straight to an answering machine. The background was filled with loads of call centre chatter.
