3 yearsThis number popped up on my phone with a spam warning. Turns out, it was actually a spam call.3 years27 June 2023. I chose not to pick up the call since Bitdefender flagged it as a potential scam. They hung up without leaving a voicemail.3 yearsSome bloke called saying he was from Microsoft Reading, working on the 16th floor of building 2. But there’s no way there’s that many floors in that building. So I decided to mess with him a bit. Asked which computer he was working on, which totally threw him off coz it wasn’t what he was expecting. After about 10 minutes of him stammering and trying to get back on track, I just dropped the call. Pretty sure it was just some call centre somewhere in India. Classic scam.MicrosoftIndia3 yearsSome bloke rang up saying he was from Microsoft, telling me my PC was hacked and at risk of scams. I just said I'd give Microsoft a bell myself to check, then he dropped the call.Microsoft3 yearsSomeone rang me saying they were from Microsoft in Reading, claiming to be on the 16th floor of building number 2. Total load of rubbish since the building doesn’t even go that high. So, I decided to mess with the guy a bit. I asked him what sort of computer I was using and he seemed completely lost, clearly not expecting that question. After about ten minutes of him babbling and trying to stick to his script, I just ended the call. Pretty sure it was just some call centre in India. :-)MicrosoftIndia3 yearsJust got a call from 01997617606 and when I answered, no one spoke and then the line went dead. Had a look at other people’s comments and it seems like this number is from Strathpeffer, Scotland. Honestly, with all these scams these days, I’m absolutely fed up. How many more are there gonna be?StrathpefferScotland3 yearsGot a call today from someone pretending to be from EE, saying there was a special discount waiting for my next bill. They wanted me to provide some info so they could sort it out. When I asked them for their name and date of birth to verify, the call just ended abruptly. Obviously a scam!EE3 yearsThis number, 01997617606, gave me a call but I couldn’t make out what the woman on the other end was trying to say. When I told her that, she just kept insisting I listen. Honestly, she was so rude that I just hung up straight away.3 yearsNo idea who that was, didn’t leave any message so I’ve just blocked it.3 yearsI've received numerous calls from this number today, and to top it off, they left a voicemail with nothing but silence. Quite odd, really!3 yearsGot a call from someone called Amanda who was trying to get me to work remotely for their company, promising good money. It seemed a bit dodgy, so I just blocked the number straight away.Amanda3 yearsFraudsters at it again, masquerading as Amazon Prime agents.3 yearsSo, I got a call from some number, asked them straight up which company they were with, but honestly couldn’t catch what they were mumbling. When I pressed for what the call was about, they mentioned something to do with a big mobile provider and helping save on bills. I told them I wasn’t interested at all. Then the person on the line sounded all annoyed and said I was wasting their time. Kinda odd since they were the ones who rang me first, then just hung up out of nowhere.3 yearsThis supposed Curry's PC World rep claims I've snagged some prizes for being their 42nd customer or something ridiculous like that! I mean, really? For starters, I’m not even with O2! What on earth is going on?CurryPC World3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with Currys trying to pitch a mobile phone deal. I just said no thanks and ended the call straight away. Blocked the number after that.Currys3 yearsAnswered the phone and just said hello, no one replied and after around ten seconds the call just ended quietly. Then, about three minutes after that, I got a call from 028 91631003, which they say is from Bangor in Co Down, Ireland. Problem is, I don’t know anyone in Ireland or Scotland, so it’s quite odd. My phone hardly ever gets calls, so this was pretty strange.BangorCo DownIrelandScotland3 yearsHonestly, I have no clue who it was, they just said hello then stayed quiet. I waited like 15 seconds but no one spoke up, so I ended the call.3 yearsI got a call from this number just now, but I didn’t pick up because my phone warned me it might be a scam. Seriously, how about getting a proper job like the rest of us? Firmly blocked.3 yearsMy mobile buzzed but when I answered, no one said a word. I hung up after a bit and then decided to block the number. It wasn’t really harassing, more just irritating, but since there’s no option for that, I had to mark it as harassment.3 yearsThey said it was some sort of blockchain business, but I just ended the call and put the number on block.3 yearsSomebody said they were calling from Curry's, but I just hung up and blocked the number straight away.Curry3 yearsHad a bloke ring me up saying he was from Currys and that I’d won a prize for being the 42nd caller or something like that… total scam, don’t trust it.Curry3 yearsI rang the number back to see who it was, but just got an old-fashioned dial tone, so I’m guessing it was probably some kind of scam.Submit Your Own Report (01997 617606)
