Got a missed call from 01983299638 earlier today. Thought it could be about the hospital appointment I’m waiting on, so I rang back. Let it ring for about 5 minutes but no answer, so I gave up. Cheers for sharing the info about this number, really helpful.

Like others have said, it was a scam call trying to take £600 from my Visa. I even double-checked with the card issuer using another phone just to be safe. Absolutely dodgy!

Got a call with an American accent saying £600 was withdrawn from my account and to press 1 for details. Definitely a scam, don’t fall for it!

Got a call from this automated voice, sounded like an Asian speaking with an American accent. They said £600 was charged on my Visa and money sent overseas through Western Union. They told me to press 1 if I wanted to stop it but I just ignored the whole thing.

Got a call from 01983299638 around 11 in the morning saying £15,000 was withdrawn from my bank and to press 1 for more info. Just ignored it completely.

Got a call asking if we’d made a Visa payment through Western Union and if we wanted to cancel it. When I kept asking who it was, the person suddenly shouted, “oh my god” really loudly. Bit strange!

Got hit by the same trick. They tried to get me to press 1 to approve a £600 payment from my card or to cancel it. Proper scam!

Got hit with the exact scam too - a woman with an American accent asked for £600 via Western Union using a Visa card. Just a couple days ago, someone called from 01364 526085 trying the same trick but this time with a Mastercard for the same amount. Absolutely dodgy!

Got a call just now saying I’ve got £600 on a Visa debit, just press 1 to claim it or lose out. Total scam, don’t fall for it!

Answered the phone and it just went dead, no sound at all. On my caller ID it popped up as an international number, but on BT it appeared as a local contact. Very strange!

I got a call from a lady's voice, sounded either recorded or maybe automated, telling me to press 1 to approve a £600 transfer through Western Union. Thing is, I never made any transaction like that, so I ignored it.

Got a call about some supposed visa transaction, sounded a bit off to me. Probably just scammers trying their luck. Best be cautious with these sorts of calls!

Got a voice message sounding American, said money was just taken out her bank account and to press a number to sort it. Luckily, an elderly woman she is, she spotted it for the scam it was and didn’t press anything. I reckon if she’d done that, a big fee would have got charged just for calling, and maybe worse things could’ve happened too.
