I picked up the phone and heard some silence for a bit before a woman with an Asian-sounding accent asked if she was talking to... (my name). I didn’t say yes or no straight away, instead I asked, ‘Who’s this? What do you want?’ She just cut the call then.

Got a voicemail from this number and it’s definitely a scam. The message was saying my account had been used to move loads of money. If you get a call like this recorded, don’t ring them back. Just hang up and ring your bank straight away with the number you normally use to make sure your money’s safe.

Totally a scam call - some robotic voice telling me “We detected unusual activity on your bank account...” but didn’t say which bank or give any real info. Then they asked me to press 1 or 2 or something. Dodgy as hell.

I used my credit card to buy train tickets the other day. It was pretty straightforward and worked fine, no issues at all. Just a quick online payment and I had my booking sorted!

There was a short pause before a robotic voice came on saying they were calling from my bank - which they didn’t bother to specify which one - claiming there were a couple of dodgy transactions earlier today, one supposedly from Amazon. Then it told me to press one or two for options. Banks definitely don’t do things like that! So I just ended the call straight away.

Got a call from a guy with a thick accent claiming I was owed £202 because of being overcharged on my phone and TV bills. You could hear loads of noise from a busy call centre in the background. He asked for my date of birth to sort the refund. I said no, and he just cut me off. Totally seemed like a scam just trying to get my personal info. Plus, I don’t even have a TV subscription!

Got a call from what was clearly a scammer, telling me that a huge sum had been charged to my bank card and asking me to verify the transaction. They want you to press 1, which then links you up with them directly. Then comes the dodgy bit - they try to get your bank info to nick your money. Absolute low lifes, I don't understand how anyone could feel proud or even remotely good about pulling off stuff like this.

Got a call a moment ago from this number. A woman with an Asian accent claimed she was from Virgin Media and wanted to talk about my internet. I asked straight up if she was telling the truth and then asked her to give me my name. She just cut off the call. Bit odd, if you ask me.
