Got a call from someone claiming they were Virgin Media, and from what I'm reading here, sounds like a typical scam to me.

Some bloke rang me saying he was from the housing repairs team about a repair job. I told him I never asked for any repairs and asked how he got my number. Next thing, he just ended the call. Total scam, beware!

Someone rang me claiming they were from the housing association, but it felt really dodgy. They wanted my personal details right away, which seemed off. I just hung up, didn’t want to risk it. Bet it was some sort of scam. Watch out, folks!

I got a call from a man who said he was a housing officer and wanted to know if my council house had any cracks or damp spots. I told him I don’t even live in a council house. He quickly said sorry and that he must’ve dialled the wrong number. Definitely seemed fishy to me!

Received a dodgy phone call concerning issues with my housing association property - they mentioned damp and dry rot among other things. They quickly hung up once I showed no interest. Total con artists!

The housing association linked to Rotherham Town Council claimed that I had submitted a request for a housing repair! This is a fraudulent report, so I’m blocking the number. What’s more, the same caller frequently dials from a slightly altered number, swapping the last two digits for 06, and they've also contacted my partner!

Got a call from some recorded message about a repair I'd supposedly reported to my housing officer. When I said I wasn’t aware of any such thing, the voice asked if I had damp or mould in the property. I replied no, then another voice quickly said thanks and ended the call. Sounds like a total scam to me.

What a cheek! I received a call from a chap named Mike regarding the issues I’d flagged up with the housing association. As soon as I declined, they cut the line without so much as a goodbye! It was a bit bizarre, as there was a noticeable delay before they even bothered to answer my initial greeting.

Received a call from this number today. When I picked up, there was nothing but silence at first, and I nearly ended the call then and there. Just as I was about to, I noticed a click, so I asked who was calling. The voice on the other end claimed to be Mike, stating it was in relation to some complaint or repairs for a housing association. I informed him that I’ve never lodged any complaints nor do I reside in a housing association property, so there were no repairs needed. I promptly hung up and blocked the number. The voice had a distinctly robotic quality to it. Seems like a classic phishing attempt, if you ask me!

I've got to concur with the sentiments already shared. I'm residing in South Wales, and it really came across as a bot calling-definitely smells like a scam to me. I reckon they were trying to match a name to a number.

I received a call from this number while I was at Rotherham Town Centre. They claimed to be enquiring about issues or damages related to property. The voice had that unmistakable robotic tone to it - very suspicious if you ask me. I reckon it’s a scam for sure.

I received a rather baffling call from a so-called repairs crew linked to a housing association. They claimed that I had supposedly lodged a complaint about damp issues in my residence. The thing is, that's outright incorrect - I’m not even the property owner!

The person on the line never used my name and kicked off by asking about my wellbeing, which felt off for a business call. He said he was from a home repair company, something I’ve heard is often a con. I called him out on being a scammer and told him to bugger off pretty loudly. He hung up right away.

Likely a scam, a male voice on the line. They failed to introduce themselves even when pressed. The reason for their call seemed to be related to some supposed repairs. When I inquired about their identity, they merely asked if I’d noticed any leaks, damage, or damp. I sought clarification on who had lodged the report, but they just echoed their previous statement. I questioned whether they could hear me (it was obvious they could), yet all they did was repeat the same line. Steer clear and don’t disclose any personal details. If this were indeed your local council, you’d be wise to ring them directly to verify.

I received a call earlier today. When I answered with, "Yes, it's me," a chap on the other end inquired about any leaks or damages I might have encountered. As soon as I replied that there weren't any, he abruptly disconnected. It struck me as quite odd, and I can't shake off the feeling that it might have been some sort of scam.

The caller remained completely silent, which makes me think that if this is indeed some sort of scam, they might be zeroing in on specific individuals. Take me, for instance; as a young bloke, I can't help but wonder if they’ve realised that folks my age are less inclined to own property. It’s possible they reckon older generations might be a bit more susceptible to their tricks, perhaps even more willing to divulge personal information. It’s quite the thought, isn't it?
