I got a call from a guy with a Scottish accent claiming there was a dodgy transaction on my debit card - something like £900 charged at Argos in Manchester. The questions he kept asking made me feel really uneasy, so I stopped replying and told him I'd ring my bank to check it out. He immediately hung up after that. When I spoke to my bank, they said no such purchase had been made and it was obviously a scam. These scammers are awful, trying to trick people like that. Honestly hope they get a taste of their own medicine someday!

Got a call from "Andrew at Visa payments department" claiming there might be fraud on my card and asking if I had tried to make a payment to Argos on my debit card this morning. I told him to get lost as this was a scam and put the phone down. He immediately called me back and called me "a miserable old whore!" definitely a scam!!

I got a call from a bloke with a Scottish accent saying there was a £400 purchase on my card at Waitrose. He told me to ring a fraud number he gave me. Turns out, when I called my bank’s actual fraud team, they said it was just a scam.

I got a call from 02079613748 saying there was some dodgy payment on my credit card. The guy's voice was weird, like he was trying to hide who he really was. When I said I didn't care about any strange charges on my card, he just hung up on me! Felt pretty fishy to me.

I think this was one of those loud silent calls, probably trying to check if the number was active. Definitely some kind of scam thing going on.

Got a call from a bloke with a Scottish accent, said he was from Barclays card dept. He asked if I’d recently paid at Waitrose. I said yes, then he just hung up straight away. Now I reckon he was trying to catch me out, hoping I’d say no so he could start up about suspicious payments and try to get my card info. Fishy as hell if you ask me.

Someone rang me saying they were from Barclays Fraud Dept, telling me there had been some dodgy transactions on my debit card. It sounded pretty convincing at first. But after the call finished, I phoned Barclays’ official fraud team myself and they said they hadn’t contacted me at all. Definitely a scam.

Got a call around 11 in the morning from some bloke with a Scottish accent. He started threatening me with violence. Not sure who it was, number was ####. Proper unsettling.
