2 yearsGot a message supposedly from Amazon saying I need to release money for an order I never placed. Looks like one of those dodgy scams to me!Amazon9 yearsGot a call from some guy with that typical Indian accent chattting about my phone bills. I just muttered and tucked the phone under a cushion for a bit. Then they rang two or three more times but I didn’t answer, just silent calls from the same number.9 yearsI just received a call from a withheld number, and the chap on the other end asked to chat with the person who handles the gas and electricity payments. I politely declined his request and hung up!9 yearsI got a call from a woman with an Asian accent, saying there was a problem with my PC. I kept telling her my computer was fine and working great. She kept arguing that there was an issue, but I stood my ground. Eventually, she just hung up on me.9 yearsA bloke rang me claiming my computer was in jeopardy and insisted I hop onto my device. I cheekily informed him that he was speaking to the Wokingham constabulary. His response was something else - he coolly remarked, "Madam, I'm not committing any offence; feel free to involve the police." Can you believe the gall?WokinghamMadam9 yearsHad this bloke from India ringing me up, trying to get me to change my gas and electric provider. Not interested at all.9 yearsGot a call from a guy claiming to be from tech support, said there was an issue with my PC. I humoured him for about ten minutes, pretending to listen but kept messing with him. I asked for his company’s registration details and a contact number, which really annoyed him. He snapped at me, saying I was clueless and he was the expert. Totally a scam, don’t let anyone get near your computer like that.9 yearsIf you’re signed up with the TPS, make sure to report any scam calls to the ICO. And for silent or abandoned calls, it's best to report them to Ofcom. Just putting them on here won’t make much difference, but Ofcom or the ICO definitely take such reports seriously. Honestly, it only takes a few minutes to do it, so worth the effort!Telephone Preference ServiceICOOfcom9 yearsThese guys from India kept ringin' me about sorting my computer issues. I just mess around, actin' clueless and firing off all sorts of questions at 'em. Usually, they give up and end the call after like 10 minutes. It's kinda funny wasting their time like that.India9 yearsNo response from them at all.9 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be my internet provider, but it turned out to be a total scam. Watch out, folks!9 yearsToday I got a call from this number, it was a woman asking if she could talk to the person responsible for the gas and electric accounts. When I asked her which company she was calling from, she mentioned something like "switch eight" or something similar. I told her I wasn’t interested in changing providers and just hung up.9 yearsI really need to block this number. They rang me up suggesting I switch on my computer so they could walk me through some alleged issue. Complete unsolicited nonsense, if you ask me!9 yearsHad a ring earlier from some tech support folks claiming my computer had some issues. The woman had an accent like she was from India, said she’d sort it out for me. When I asked if they were based in the UK, she said something about being in Greater London, but she sounded unsure and like she had to double-check. Then she told me to look for the ctrl key on my keyboard in the bottom-left corner. I told her I was using a Mac and right there I knew it was dodgy. She just cut the call after that. Definitely a scam.London9 yearsthis person with a strange accent called me, claiming he could assist with scam problems. i was a bit suspicious, especially when he kept pushing for me to let him access my computer. when i said no, he got kinda annoyed real quick.9 yearsSome bloke called and gave me a name, said somethin' about my computer. I told him I didn't own one, then asked if he could send something over. Suddenly he just hung up on me.9 yearsI got a call from someone pretending to be from tech support, saying my computer had an issue they could fix. They asked me to download some suspicious software, which I obviously didn’t want to do. So, I just kept playing along, dragging the conversation out for a bit of fun. Eventually, I asked why I should trust them, and the guy said it’s because he’s a software engineer. That’s when I called him out on being a scammer, and he hung up straight away.9 yearsEvery time I pick up the phone, it’s just dead air on the other end. What a right pain this nuisance call is!9 yearsi answered to a friendly sounding indian woman who quickly went through her usual sales pitch. when i admitted i wasn’t familiar with the run command she handed me over to her manager. he told me to open google and type in [#]ftx2x(####], which was a big error on his part. i didn’t follow his instructions like he expected and instead stumbled upon this website and a few others. he soon realised i wasn’t going anywhere and got annoyed. i nearly had to beg him not to end the call after i’d already used up about 10 minutes of his time.Google9 yearsEvery time I ring, no one seems to pick up the phone. It's quite frustrating, to say the least!9 yearsRight so this number rings me up again, and after hanging about on the line, a guy with a really strong Indian accent comes on and says something like “ello, this is sheen” - I reckon he was trying to say Sean but just couldn’t get it right. Then he starts chatting about some issue with my computer. I just told him I’m not bothered and hung up straight away. After that I blocked the number so they don’t bother me again.SheenSeanSubmit Your Own Report (01982 551073)
