Got a call from 01793322943 today, but I've decided to block any numbers starting with 0179 now since they usually turn out to be those dodgy energy consultant scams.

Got a call from 01793326229 but they didn’t say anything or leave a message. Lately, I’ve noticed loads of calls from 0179 numbers, mostly energy companies, but now it seems like they’re shifting to scams about credit cards or Amazon. Think I’ll have to start blocking the whole 0179 prefix to be safe.

Got a call from 01793324462, total scam. A woman said my credit card had been used or something. I didn’t hang about, just told her it was a scam and to stop calling me.

Hey all, got a call from a number claiming to be Virgin Media. At first, I believed them when they said my internet was slow and people from overseas were trying to scam me. Then they handed me over to a 'supervisor' who said he'd add money to my account so the scammers would withdraw it instead. I ended the call right away, changed all my passwords, and cancelled my bank card. Make sure you verify it's really Virgin Media before you trust anyone on the phone.

Yet another call today, some bloke from some far away place trying to sell me some emergency loan deal. Could hardly work out what he was on about. Told him I wasn’t in any kind of trouble right now, and anyway, my pal MOGG was already lending me ten quid - and yes, that’s pounds, not some weird measurement. Or at least I hope that’s what he meant!

Got a call from an 0179 number about a week back. I found out the number by using 1471, like I normally do when I’m out. Scam calls mostly come between 11 and 1, and they only ring a couple of times before hanging up. I don’t have voicemail set up on either my landline or mobile so the scammers don’t find out if someone’s there or not. The full number that called me was 0179561155312. I looked up this site and nobody else seems to have reported it yet.

Got a call from 01792349901 claiming to be from Microsoft. They wanted me to let them into my computer but when I said no, they started threatening me with having my internet cut off, my computer locked and even a fine. Pretty dodgy if you ask me.

Got a call from 01797225772 on Wed 10th Aug around 1.55pm. I picked up and could hear the person, but they couldn’t hear me at all. I thought it could be a call I was waiting for from a company, so I called back and left a voicemail with my home number. Later on, I looked up the number online and found out it might be a bogus one.

01798879662 Gave me an automated message claiming there was suspicious activity on my account but never said which account! It mentioned something about an Amazon purchase and asked about an International money transfer service with a big sum involved.

Got loads of calls from numbers begining with this code. They’re all dodgy, the latest one was about a supposed unauthorised £600 transfer from my bank abroad. Proper cheeky, exactly what they wanna pull off - nick your cash.

I think the 0179 number is meant to be Amazon Prime, so you can just ignore it.

01792311806 keeps ringing me loads, same with a few similar numbers, never anyone there when I pick up. Looks like some dodgy sales scam. Honestly, find something better to do with your time, proper job maybe? What a waste!
