I saw the number but chose not to pick up as it was unfamiliar. After reading your review, I'm glad I stayed quiet since I've had a couple of scams recently trying to trick me when I was making online payments, both acting like they were from my bank. Really appreciate this site for saving me from trouble, cheers!

I got a call from a woman speaking with a really hard-to-understand foreign accent, mentioning a mobile phone provider or something. I was waiting on a crucial phone call, so I just told her to bugger off. She quickly ended the call after that. Pretty obvious scam, so I've blocked the number now.

Got another bogus call today. The guy’s accent was impossible to get, sounded really dodgy. The caller ID showed Strathfeffer, but I seriously doubt it considering it’s just a tiny village up north of Inverness. Pretty sure it was some kind of scam.

I got a call from a number that said it was from Scotland. I picked up thinking it was for work, but the person on the other end had a strong African accent and it was hard to make out what they were saying. They didn’t seem to get what I meant either. Felt a bit like a spam call, so I ended up hanging up and blocking the number straight away.

The guy's accent was so thick I could hardly catch a word. Funny thing, he kept asking if I got annoying calls. When I tried finding out who he was, all I got was him going on about “do you get unwanted calls.” I told him if I had any problems, I’d just ring my phone company, then I ended the call. Definitely seemed like just another scam to me.

Called about visa fraud? Yeah right. Just got another call not even 30 mins ago but from some other number. Thought telling them I was broke would make them leave me alone but looks like it doesn’t do the trick at all. The calls just keep coming.

I saw the number but decided not to answer as it seemed suspicious. Later, I tried ringing it back to find out who it was, but the call never went through and there was no voicemail left. Guess they don’t take incoming calls, so I’m pretty sure it was just a spam caller!
