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!

Received a weird call about some housing issue I'd supposedly reported. The bloke said his name was Mike, but it sounded like it was a pre-recorded message pretending to be live. Definitely blocked this number!

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!

I got a call from someone claiming to be Rotherham Town Council housing association saying I’d asked for a repair. Totally a scam, so I reported and blocked them. They keep calling from the same number but tweak the last two digits, sometimes from 06, and even called my partner! Avoid these dodgy calls for sure.

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.

Fraud alert. I got a call from someone named Mike asking about issues I supposedly told the housing association about. I told him I hadn’t, and he just cut off straight away. It was a little strange how slow they were to reply too.

Got a call from this number earlier. Picked up and there was total silence for a few seconds, was about to hang up but then I heard a click and someone said they were Mike. He mentioned something about a complaint or repairs with my housing association. I told him I’ve never filed anything with a housing association and don’t have any repairs as I’ve never lived in a housing association property. Ended the call and blocked the number straight away. The voice sounded really robotic. Smells like a phishing scam to me.

I’m from South Wales as well and had a very similar experience. The call sounded like it was coming from a robot and seemed like a total scam. I think they were just trying to match the name to the number, that’s all.

Got a call from a number linked to Rotherham Town Centre. The caller talked about some issues and damages with my property. The voice seemed almost robotic, like it was automated. Pretty sure it was a scam.

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.

Somebody rang me claiming to be from a property company, asking if I was having any issues like damp, mould or dripping pipes at my place. I told them everything was fine and to not bother calling again. I’ve blocked the number now so they can’t keep ringing.

He just gave his name and claimed he was ringing about some faults I was supposed to have reported to the housing officer. Thing is, I never reported anything since I own my place. I told him straight up I hadn’t mentioned anything and to get lost!

Got a call from a bloke who didn’t say who he was, even after I asked. He claimed it was about some repairs that had been reported. When I asked what repairs he meant, he just kept going on about leaks, damp and damage without giving any specifics. I tried checking if he could hear me properly, but he just kept repeating the same thing. Feels like a dodgy scam. Definitely don’t share any personal info. If you’re worried, better ring your local council directly using their official number to check.

This afternoon I answered a call and said, “Hello, this is [me],” and a man started asking if I’d reported any leaks or damaged things. When I told him no, he just cut the call straight away. It felt kinda odd, so I reckon it might’ve been a scam.

I got a call from a silent number, not a single word was spoken. Makes me think if it’s some sort of scam, they’re probably picking their targets carefully. Like, I’m a young bloke, and maybe they reckon people my age usually don’t have houses or assets, unlike older folks who might be easier to fool into handing over personal info.
