A woman with an Indian accent claimed she was calling from my internet provider. I ended the call straight away and put her number on block.

Got a call from someone wanting to chat about my life insurance. I said sure, but asked which policy they meant. Right after that, they just ended the call. Strange!

Like a lot of others have said, this is just another trick trying to pin you down for your bank info. Someone from a “claims department” said they’d sort out a refund by cheque and even had my full address right there. The moment I told them it was a con, they just cut the call.

I got a call from this number and didn't pick up. It kept ringing about 20 times before stopping. Seems like they were quite keen to get through. This number was once owned by an older person. After seeing the feedback here, it looks like they might be aiming at older people with landlines. Why aren’t BT or the cops doing something about it?

this man from another country rang my 80 year old gran, telling her she was gonna get a cheque in the post to cover some supposed bank fees. but before she could get that money, he wanted her bank info. they already had loads of her info like her name, address, and birth date, just needed her bank details. luckily, my gran isn't daft and smelt a rat straight away, so she just ended the call.

They never say who’s ringing you, and if you keep pressing for info, they just cut the call. My advice? Don’t give them any details and refuse to answer their questions at all.

Got a call from a woman with an Indian accent claiming to be from the claims department. She said they’d be transferring money to my bank account. I was like, “yeah right, don’t try to scam me,” and then she just ended the call.

some bloke with the number a396502an571 kept hassling me on my landline. he was pretty pushy, telling me i’m owed a bank refund for fees supposedly paid. i told him i never paid any bank fees, then he started getting a bit rude so i just ended the call and blocked the number.

Total scam! They claim they're sending a cheque refund from the bank, but honestly, banks just put money straight into your account nowadays. They’re just after your bank details. Keep clear, don’t fall for this trick!

Be careful! I got a call from a woman with an Indian accent, claiming to be calling from Winchester. She told me I was owed a refund for illegal bank fees from the past 20 years and needed to confirm my information. I asked why my bank hadn’t contacted me directly, and she gave some dodgy excuse. I told her I wasn’t buying it and that I’d check with my bank myself. She just said alright and ended the call. I looked it up afterwards and found out this scam has been going around for ages. They try to get you to pay an admin fee, but the refund never shows up!

I got a call from a lady with an accent from around the Indian sub-continent, said her name was Hazel. She claimed I was eligible for a refund on bank fees thanks to some new government law. She asked me to verify my name and address, which she recited back to me, so she could post out a cheque. I told her straight up that either she was trying to trick me or someone else was feeding her false info, as I’ve never been charged bank fees before. She hung up pretty sharpish after that.
