Got a really rude bloke ringin up asking if we’re “still in the market for office space”. I calmly told him we’ve never been interested and asked him nicely to take us off his call list. He snapped back with “fantastic your face” and then just slammed the phone down. With manners like that, no wonder he’s stuck doing dodgy sales calls!

Got a call at my work this morning, 8th August 2024, about 10 am. I barely started speaking when I guess he caught on to my American accent and realised he must’ve rang the wrong side of the Atlantic. Definitely seemed like a scam to me.

Got a call from someone saying they were with the London Economic Development Office, asking if I’d sorted out an office yet or if I was still searching. The number was already on my phone under nuisance calls, so I guessed they’d tried before. The person on the line sounded Asian, maybe from the Far East. I explained I’m self-employed and don’t have a proper business, and she just ended the call after that.

We got loads of calls over about 10 days from a bloke with a voice just like what others have said. The first call he just cut off halfway through. Then when he called again, he said he didn’t remember calling us in the first place. He kept asking about how the office is set up.

Got a call from +442039897163, sounded like a young bloke who might be Asian but spoke with an American twang. Claimed he was ringing from WA Business Directory in Australia and asked for all sorts of details like our management team’s names and personal email addresses. He was quite courteous about it though. Really curious why he was dialing in from London of all places 🥸 Seriously, just bugger off, don’t waste our time!

Just like others have said, this bloke called asking if we were selling stuff and wanted loads of info about our business. When I told him to send an email to our official address or give me his contact info, he just hung up. Didn’t give him a thing but he keeps calling back. Sounds like he’s from India. We’ve now blocked the number. Proper rude and pushy, honestly.

I put this number on block, but somehow they called me again and it still showed as the same number. I had to block it once more. The 1st time, it was just a missed call and I thought it might be spam after looking it up. The next time, all I got was some weird heavy breathing.

Got a ring from a bloke with an Indian accent claiming he was from the 'London Economic Department'. He was asking if we’ve shifted offices yet and if we’ve managed to find a new spot. Then he wanted to know which office this phone was linked to and just ended the call. The number showed up as a London one, but when I tried calling back it doesn’t go through at all. Seems dodgy to me, probably a scam, though I’m not exactly sure what angle they’re playing at.

Got a call from some man claiming to be from the Economic Development Department NSW. He asked for my name twice and said his was Michael. Then he wanted to know if I'd changed offices or was still interested. When I tried to find out who he usually speaks to, he started swearing at me because I didn’t know who was in charge of the office move. Definitely felt like a scam attempt. I ended the call and looked up the number, so I’m posting this here. Sometimes I think maybe scammers see it as a target if people just hang up on them.

For the past couple of months, I’ve been getting calls from a company in NSW pretty much several times a week, sometimes even multiple times a day. They keep saying they’re from the “Business development office” or something like that, but whenever I ask for any real proof or official paperwork, they just get all defensive and won’t send anything through.

Been getting calls from a company in NSW, Australia quite a bit lately - sometimes they ring me a few times in the same day. They keep saying they’re from the “Business Development Office,” but whenever I ask for any sort of evidence or details about who they really are, they just get annoyed and cut me off. Definitely feels like a scam to me.

Had a similar thing happen to me. Got a call saying, "I'm ringing from the City of London, are you still looking to move? When, and how many people would be in the office?" I live in London but nowhere near The City (the Square Mile), so I immediately thought it was a dodgy fishing attempt, probably linked to some estate agents. This same person has called me about 5 times already today. Luckily I’ve got caller ID, so I just block and ignore now.

So I got three calls today and one last week from a woman claiming to be from Companies House. She said she needed to update their records with the latest info about my business. I told her straight I wasn’t giving out any details and she could just look them up online instead. Then suddenly she got all defensive, like “Why are you being so rude and talking over me? Let me finish...” It felt like the whole thing got completely turned around, as if *I’m* the one bothering them. Proper cheeky move.

I’ve had some dodgy calls from people claiming to be with the Chamber of Commerce. They keep ringing to ask if we’re planning to move house or change premises. In the last couple of weeks, I’ve had three calls. One woman named Angel just hung up on me twice when I asked why they were calling. Today, another caller was really pushy, demanding to know if we were actually moving. When I asked why they cared, she said they were updating their records for the department of development. After I admitted we might move, she kept nagging about when - like, 6 to 9 months, or maybe 1 to 2 years? I told her we didn’t have a set date, but she wouldn’t stop asking. I ended the call, but she rang straight back and spoke to someone else here. Both were really persistent and refused to accept our answers, quite rude really.
