I got a call from 01997617660 and decided not to pick up. Came online to check it out and glad to see it’s a sketchy number!

I got a call from someone saying they're with Virgin Media sales and offering a 20% discount on their mobiles and SIM cards. Sounds like a scam to me because Virgin Media SIMs are moving over to O2 now, so this offer doesn't add up at all.

I’ve come across some dodgy characters pretending to be from O2, trying to lure folks in with a ridiculously phoney offer of 40% off. It’s blatant as day!

Missed the call, but Samsung flagged it as suspected spam and after checking here, I’d say they’re spot on!

Got a call from 01997 617660 saying they were from Three and could give me a discount on my phone bill. Something felt off because the guy kept muting himself whenever he talked, so I couldn’t hear any background noise. It seemed pretty suspicious, so I told him I wasn’t interested and ended the call straight away.

Got a call from this woman claiming she offered design services for my company. Total rip-off. It’s annoying how these Indian call centres can just use UK phone numbers - must be the authorities turning a blind eye and letting these scammers operate under local numbers.

Received a single call that just rang once, quite suspicious if you ask me. Seems like yet another sketchy tactic to pull a fast one.

Got a call from 01997 617660 claiming to be Currys PC World. I actually work there and can tell you straight up, this is a scam. We’d never pester customers like that, so don’t fall for it!

The call was dead silent when I picked up, not a single word from the other end. I barely had the chance to say anything before they hung up. Watch out for these strange calls!

Got a call from 01997 617660, some bloke pretending to be from Microsoft. When I didn’t go along with their demands, they started saying they’d block my PC. Then they said I’d have to go all the way to Reading just to get it fixed. Total scam, no doubt about it.

This number said they were from O2 and tried to lure me in with some "special offer," but it felt fishy - definitely a scam in my opinion.

Someone rang saying they were from O2, trying to give me a discount on my phone deal - which I’m only in the first year of a three-year contract. As soon as I mentioned this, they suddenly stopped replying.

Been getting calls from this number a couple times now, both supposedly from India but somehow routed through the UK. They claim to be from 02 and try to push some reduced price contract. I keep blocking them but they just switch up the numbers they use. Quite annoying really.

They never even answered when I tried to call back; they said they were from Strathpeffer, Scotland, but I just ended up blocking the number instead.
