1 yearGot a call from someone speaking with an Asian accent, but they just hung up right away. Definitely seemed like a scam to me.3 yearsToday I got a call from this number but didn’t pick up since it wasn’t a number I knew.3 yearsPicked up the phone and all i got was silence then the call dropped.3 yearsI picked up and the call just ended right away.3 yearsIf only I could track down those ####, that’d be brilliant!3 yearsWhenever I get a call with an Asian accent starting with "how are you today," I usually just cut it off and block the number. Pretty sure it's one of those scams, no point wasting time on it.3 yearsI just let it ring 5 times and then ended the call. They haven’t tried ringing back again. Seems like your guess was spot on.3 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Indian accent saying he was from EE. I decided to mess about a bit and asked if he was sure he wasn’t actually from O2, after seeing all the chat about scams here. He couldn’t even tell me my own name, which is weird if he’s really from my network. Had a laugh with him till he ended up hanging up on me.EE3 yearsGot a call from a +44 number, and since I’m here in England, it caught my attention. Didn’t pick up, and the call stopped after about 5 rings. They didn’t leave any voicemail either. Feels like a dodgy call, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number.England3 yearsGot a call from 01514533247 about some 40 percent off my 02 bill. I just put my phone on mute, then they ended the call. Not long after, the same woman rang me back from this number.3 yearsWhenever I answer and say hello, there's just silence before they cut the call. Sometimes if I don’t say anything, some automated voice with a strange American accent just says "Goodbye" and then ends the call. I reckon either a business has passed my number around without my say so, or someone dodgy linked to one of those online firms has got hold of customer numbers and is doing this weird stuff. It all kicked off after I bought a gadget from the internet.3 yearsGot a call from someone with an Indian accent who said they were from O2 and had a deal with 40% off plus a really cheap upgrade on an iPhone. Then they started asking for my bank details to “apply” the discount. Honestly, don’t trust this at all. If you give them any of your bank info, you’re basically handing over your money to be stolen.
