3 yearsSomeone rang me claiming they were from the foreign office, but I had my doubts about their authenticity. They just didn’t come across as genuine. I ended the call promptly.3 yearsYeah right! Someone just took £300 out of my account without permission! They say "Press 1 to stop it." And shockingly, some folks actually hit 1 ? Seriously?!5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be HMRC asking if I was working as a contractor. I told them I never worked as one, and after that they didn't bother me anymore.HMRC6 yearsThey ring non stop every single day, proper pain in the neck! Lucky we managed to block them at last!7 yearsThey ring our shop almost every day but we just ignore it, luckily the caller ID helps us dodge the calls!7 yearsI think it was a scam, cause the moment I picked up they just dropped the call straight away.7 yearsGot this weird call that was just silent, no voicemail or nothing. Just straight up blocked the number!7 yearsFor the past few days, they've kept phoning me. When I asked for their number, they wouldn't give it and instead asked for my email address. I saw the number pop up on my phone and told the young lady on the other end that it looked like a scam, so I just hung up. :)7 yearsSome bloke called "J Joker" supposedly rang from this number. It’s hilarious that they didn’t even catch on that the company was probably using them to run some sort of scam! The moment I started asking questions, they just hung up straight away.7 yearsSomeone pretending to be HMRC called me, then suddenly ended the call and blocked their number before I could say anything.HMRC7 yearsThe call lasted barely 15 seconds, didn’t even give me a chance to pick up. There was no voicemail left, so it didn’t seem important or real. Blocked straight away.7 yearsPicked up the phone and all I got was silence before they cut off. Since it’s not linked to any business, I’m guessing it’s just a scam. Have already made a complaint to OFCOM about it.OFCOM7 yearsI missed their call when I was out, but using this website showed me it’s best to be cautious. If someone rings and doesn’t leave a voicemail, it usually means it’s just some dodgy call centre, so I’d say just block them straight away.7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming they were doin a survey, but I reckon it was just another scam attempt.7 yearsGot four calls from them today, none of which left a message. I’ve just blocked the number since they don’t seem to be wanted at all.7 yearsI got a call from some woman saying she was from the foreign affairs office but she sounded totally clueless. Definitely felt off and like she had no idea what she was talking about. Really weird experience.Foreign Office7 yearsSomebody pretending to be from IFS called me, trying to sound official. They asked for my daughter, but I told them she doesn’t live here. They said they’d remove us from their list. Then, they kept ringing back from loads of different 020 numbers and never left a voicemail. Bit suspicious if you ask me!IFS7 yearsFor a while now, this number has been ringing my workplace, insisting they're from HMRC. But when I asked for any proof or details, they just refused to provide anything. Now they’ve kicked off again, phoning me like 5 or 6 times daily. Honestly, you'd have to call that harassment at this point.HMRC7 yearsGot a call from this number but they didn’t leave any voicemail, so it couldn't have been anything urgent. The number doesn’t look familiar to me at all, so I’m guessing it was probably some annoying telemarketer or just another scam attempt. I’ve blocked the number now to avoid getting any more calls from them.7 yearsAllegedly from the payments oversight authority.7 yearsLately, we've been getting loads of strange calls like this one where the person said they were from the education department doing some kind of research and asked specifically for our manager. It's starting to make me a bit uneasy, to be honest.7 yearsBeen getting loads of cold calls at our office lately. This one caller kept insisting on speaking to the manager, felt pretty dodgy to me.7 yearsGot a call on my phone from a lady asking for me using my full name, which I hardly ever go by. She said she was from some company called IFS based in London. I told her I wasn’t interested in talking and to please put me on their no call list. Now just waiting to see if they stick to it.IFSLondon7 yearsWatch out scam artists!7 yearsGot a call from an 0208 number, think it was either Michael or Mark - both probably skint with a dodgy tan. Bet their folks would be well embarrassed, though mum must have pulled in a bit of cash at least.MarkMichaelMum7 yearsMy accounting office got a call from someone named Andrew Waking who said he was with the ICAEW.Andrew WakingICAEW7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from HMRC asking for some company info. I decided to ring HMRC myself, and they said they had no record of such a call. Definitely a scam.HMRC7 yearsGot a call claiming to be from the education department, but they didn’t give any reason for ringing. felt a bit suspicious to me.7 yearsThey said they were calling from the education department and were doing some kind of survey.7 yearsGot a call at work from someone pretending to be with the UK government. Seemed dodgy to me.UK7 yearsI didn't answer because the number was unfamiliar. Later, I checked here but didn’t find it, so I called back figuring it might be a client. Instead, I got an automated voice saying it was from 'IFS Research'. Oddly, the number they gave didn’t match the one listed on IFS's official website.IFSSubmit Your Own Report (020 8049 5680)
