Got a call from 01726 862 532 and it felt dodgy. They were trying to get my elderly dad to press 1 or 2 for his bank info. Luckily, he just stayed quiet and didn’t press anything. Then they just hung up. I tried to find info on this number but there’s nothing showing up anywhere.

Got a call moments ago from a guy speaking with a South Asian accent. He asked if I was John Smith, which I said yes to (though I’m not). Then he threw some strange question about my computer at me, went quiet for a bit, started laughing unexpectedly and then just hung up. In the backround, I could hear what sounded like a busy call centre, but who knows if it was real or just a recording? The number was 01726, which is St. Austell - guessing this spammer’s using some dodgy number routing or one of those zombie numbers.

Got a call from someone speaking in broken English, claiming my computer was overloaded with spam and rubbish (which it definitely isn’t). He reckoned it was because my internet was running non-stop 24/7 (which it isn’t either). I politely ended the call but he had the nerve to ring me again. Then he said he found my number through my bank info. Only when I firmly told him to stop bothering me did he finally seem to get the message and speak proper English.

I attempted to ring the number, but it didn’t go through and said the number wasn’t recognised at all!

So I received a call earlier from the same bloke, he asked if I was the person on the account and kept asking for personal info. Then, out of nowhere, he just ended the call.

Just got a call from this number, tried ringing back but the number isn’t even listed or doesn’t seem to exist. Strange!

So this lady, Jennifer, finally says she's from the software support centre after I kept asking. Said it was about the Windows operating system. Yeah right, like I’m daft enough to fall for that!

Got a voicemail with just heavy breathing, no words at all. Pretty creepy.

Got a call from a guy with an Asian accent saying my computer had issues. Told him nicely that I wasn’t that foolish and to buzz off.

I just got a call from these lot as well. Apparently, my computer was the root of all the world's issues! Some bloke with an Asian accent named Shaun was on the line, acting like he had it all figured out. I wasn’t nearly as nice as the person from the other comment!

They rang me as well, and it was a bit unsettling that they already knew my name.
