It's kind of funny that the scammer actually replied to this post. You'd think it would be straightforward to trace their MAC address from here. Really unfortunate that the police don't bother looking into fraud cases anymore though.

Got a call on my mobile from a number I didn’t know, so I just let it ring out cos I thought it was probs a scam. From reading what others said, sounds like one of those dodgy cheap phone deal scams where they try to get your personal info.

Had a call from someone supposedly working for Carphone Warehouse, but the dodgy line full of crackles and the strong South Asian accent immediately made me suspicious. Sounded like a total scam to me. Didn’t hang around to hear the whole story, just ended the call straight away. Honestly, these scammers need to either up their game or just stop bothering people altogether. Such a waste of time.

This number keeps calling me at all hours, which is so annoying since I do night shifts sometimes. Every time I pick up or reply, they just hang up, and honestly, I can’t make out what they’re saying anyway. I’ve ended up blocking this one plus a couple more recently because I’m sick of dealing with these scammers. I’m already struggling on my minimum wage, so it’s just not on. Wish they’d all just disappear!

Received a call from someone claiming to be from Curry's PC World. When I requested them to remove my number from their records, the situation took a bizarre turn. They began making threats against me, suggesting they would come to my house and attack, claiming that my residence was under the watchful eyes of snipers. To top it all off, they questioned my sanity and bizarrely declared their affection for me. Absolutely absurd and quite unsettling!

I received a rather mysterious call from this number on the 19th of October, 2022, and there was absolutely no one on the other end. It was unsolicited, so I've gone ahead and blocked it. I've also lodged a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office, as I suspect they might be infringing on GDPR regulations, particularly since my number is listed with the Telephone Preference Service. Despite notifying this company about my registration, they persist in calling me, which could potentially land them a hefty fine of around £500,000!

He was keen on verifying my personal information. Since I hadn’t had any dealings with that company in ages, I started feeling a bit uneasy and decided to hang up. It felt decidedly dodgy.

I received a call from someone purporting to be from "Virgin Media Mobile". They insisted I provide the 1st, 3rd, and 5th letters of my security question. The pitch was for an upgrade to an iPhone 14 Pro Max, along with the promise of terminating my current contract and letting me keep my existing phone. They claimed all they needed were my bank details, email address, name, and postcode. I would strongly advise steering clear of Virgin Media if you come across the number 0345, it sounds a bit dodgy!
