7 yearsDidn’t say a word. Just blocked.7 yearsEvery time this number rings, I just don’t pick up. They never bother to drop a message on my answering machine either, they just hang up.

I’ve already reported this to Action Fraud.Western UnionAction Fraud7 yearsGot a call from some bloke saying it was about a card purchase at Western Union. It sounded like one of those scam call centres with all the background noise. I just hung up and blocked their number straight away. Didn’t fall for it, didn’t give out any card details or anything like that. Could tell they were just trying to get my info.Western Union7 yearsGot another robo call like loads of people mention.
