Someone rang me up to check if I wanted to keep my plumbing mag subscription and asked whether I’d prefer the printed version or digital from now on. Honestly, it sounded pretty legit to me.

I received a call purporting to be from Wendy at Comms Magazine regarding a subscription renewal. The catch? We don't even hold a subscription with them! To make matters worse, their voicemail is perpetually full, so there's no chance of leaving a reply. It really feels like a dodgy attempt to gather personal info. Plus, I can’t find any evidence that such a position exists at William Reed. Very suspicious, indeed!

someone called saying they were wendy from comms magazine about renewing a subscription we supposedly had. the thing is, we dont even subscribe to them and whenever i try to leave a message the voicemail is full and wont let me leave anything. feels like a scam just trying to get info from us.

I’m not too certain because when I tried ringing back the voicemail was full and I couldn’t leave a message. I don’t usually pick up calls from numbers I don’t know, and I only get back to those that leave a message - that way I avoid most spam and robocalls. I thought this was about a job interview, but since there was no message, I’m not going to bother calling again.

They’re a legit marketing firm that rings you up to confirm your info for magazine subscriptions, making sure the publishers can keep sending them to you without any hassle.

This number's been ringing me every single day but never leaves a voicemail. I've just gone ahead and blocked it now.

I got a call from a woman claiming she’s with the council’s building and maintenance dept, but she wouldn’t say what the call was about or why she wanted to speak to my MD. She insisted she only had an outgoing line and couldn’t take any return calls. She tried to sound like she was from some official government office, but after checking the number, it’s actually registered to William Reed, which is some magazine publisher. Feels like she was trying to be sneaky or misleading.

I just received a phone call from someone claiming to be from the Local Authority Building and Maintenance. What's puzzling is that she refused to divulge the purpose of her call intended for my managing director. To make matters more suspicious, she insisted she was only able to make outbound calls and wouldn’t accept incoming ones. Her tone was quite official, giving the impression she was representing a government body. However, after doing some digging, I found that the number is actually linked to William Reed, which appears to be a publishing company. Quite misleading, to say the least.

I got a call from someone saying they were with William Reed Publishing, but I'm not sure if it was legit. They were talking about some survey or something, sounded a bit dodgy to me.
