Someone's been messing about using my phone number, harassing folks for ages. They even use this tech trick with my exact number to get verification codes. Now I’m getting calls from people saying I was the one who rang them - all part of the scam. I’ve put in a report with Action Fraud, it’s been such a nightmare. I’m proper annoyed, and honestly, TPS should do more to stop these scammers nabbing our mobiles. Amazon and WhatsApp don’t help either, they seem to leak numbers too.

01865 587284 So I was trying to reset my WhatsApp and never got the verification message, I clicked on the call me option and this number called me right away with the code.

Right, here’s the thing with this number... I’m not quite sure how to explain it, but one evening I was returning home from a mate's place quite late, and this number starts ringing. I assumed it was my pal who recently relocated to the UK, so I answered. To my surprise, it was a pre-recorded message in a language I don't recognise at all - definitely not English! It didn't come across as an advertisement or anything of that sort; it had more of a cryptic tone, all delivered in this monotonous voice. It’s been quite persistent too, ringing me about five or seven times now. Quite odd, I must say!
