This number keeps calling me but there’s no one there, just silence every time. Really annoying!

Got a call from 01917070148 about some security service. As soon as I hung up, I rang BT and used 1572 to block the number. It's all sorted now, that number won't be bothering me again.

Got a call saying it was a security check from some so-called police officers nearby. Totally a scam, don’t fall for it!

This number and 01917070147 keep popping up on my caller ID. Whenever they ring, I pretend like it's a fax machine on the other end. Fingers crossed they think my line’s a fax and stop bothering me. I’ve even done the fax thing to those tech support scammers as well. Hopefully that throws them off for good.

On the 21st of March, I received a phone call from this number where a gentleman tried selling me a home security system that supposedly detects body heat, smoke, flames, and even listens out for alarms, then alerts a call centre. He was trying to set up a demo appointment for this gadget, saying it was offered for just £99, plus ongoing fees starting at £1 a day. After a while, I got tired of his spiel and just ended the call. I decided to report it to the local police, who took down my complaint and gave me an incident reference. Since then, the same number has rung me twice today, but when I answered, it didn’t connect.

They keep ringing me daily, but I never manage to answer quick enough. I reckon it’s some kind of automated scam call.

Got a call from someone saying they were linked to safety services, mentioning the local police and recent break-ins around our area. They wanted to set up a demo with one of their reps, claiming everyone had proper ID. But when I questioned them, it quickly became clear they were just after selling alarm systems.

Got a call from a bloke going on about some security setup and needing to do CBI checks. He said there were folks nearby who could pop round to chat about the system, and all they wanted was a cuppa and some biscuits. I don’t really buy biscuits, so I just told him I was tied up, and he said alright then and hung up.

Picked up the phone earlier at 13:23 and all I got was a woman saying "goodbye". Bit strange, right?

Just updating from my note on the 10th of March: I told Leeds City Council about a call I got from 0191 7070148. Trading standards got back to me and said it was a scam. They confirmed that whoever was behind that number isn't authorised by the council or trading standards to give out home security tips in Leeds.

Got a call from 0191 7070148, some woman saying she was ringing from a council-endorsed scheme about home security reps coming to the area soon. She mentioned they'd have ID badges and everything was above board. I told her our place is a no cold-calling zone, but she insisted they're exempt and backed by 44 councils across the UK. I said if it was all proper, no need to ring us since loads of homes here in Adel are on Councillor Barry Anderson’s list, and he lets us know if any legit surveys are happening. Strange thing, as soon as I dropped Barry’s name, she just hung up!

Like quite a few stories here, when I asked "your surname, Emma?" she just ended the call right away.

So this bloke rings me up askin for my name and starts talkin about some survey to do with crime prevention. He goes on about people going around with photo ID, telling folks about a new crime watch system or somethin. I told him I wasn’t interested because it sounded like a sales pitch. When I asked why someone from the north east would be ringing me about it, he just shrugged and said he wasn’t calling from Newcastle. Bit dodgey if you ask me.

It suddenly went silent. I reckon they were seeing if my number was active, maybe to ring me back at some point.

This lady rang me up and asked for me personally. She then said she was calling about some crime prevention survey happening nearby, and that someone would be calling round to my house soon. I’m always wary of these cold calls, so I didn’t really trust what she was saying.

Everytime I pick up, the line just cuts out on me - definitely feels like some kind of scam to me.

I heard a girl laughing on the other side before she just hung up. It definitely seemed like she was in some kind of call centre.
