Reports on phone number 02080998870
4 yearsThe guy had a thick Indian accent and you could hear all the background chatter like he was sitting in some call centre. He claimed to be calling from VMWare and wanted to talk about some business report. He actually knew my first name and even mentioned my job title, though it was a bit outdated by about a year and a bit. What really worries me is that he phoned my old landline number that's not even listed anywhere and hardly gets used. How on earth did he manage to link that number with all my details? Seems fishy to me.VMWare4 yearsKind of an odd call I had, to be honest. The chap on the line had quite a noticeable Indian twang, and I could hear plenty of chatter in the background, which made me think he was at some sort of call centre. He claimed to be from VMWare, wanting to discuss a business report with me. Strangely, he seemed to know my job title, although it was outdated by about a year and a bit, and he even had my first name. The worrying part? This was all happening on my home landline, which is ex-directory and hardly ever used. I can’t help but wonder how he managed to link that phone number with my details. Quite unsettling, if you ask me.VMWare4 yearsGot two calls from someone claiming to be from Business Info Pro or somehting like that, trying to check my name and what I do for work. When I started grilling them, they just ended the call. Felt really suspicious to me.4 yearsGot loads of calls from some offshore call centre trying to sell these random guides - stuff like cloud setup or even what to wear in the office. They always seem to know my job title, probably grabbed it off LinkedIn or something, and then ask to double-check my work email before sending the "info". Such a drag. I've asked them repeatedly to take me off their list, mentioning GDPR and my right to be forgotten, but they just ignore it and keep calling anyway!LinkedIn4 yearsI received a rather dubious phone call from someone claiming to represent Microsoft. This individual alleged that my computer had experienced a security breach. He insisted that my device's safety was at risk and was eager to provide his so-called support.Microsoft4 yearsI got calls from them like 7 in just 2 hours! Was proper annoyed, especially when i didn't answer them.4 yearssomebody phoned me, said they was from hyundai and wanted to invite me to try a test drive. i told them i wasn’t interested, and they kept saying it was just for a test drive, no pressure to buy. i said no again, mentioning i’m not planing on geting a car. then they just hung up straight away, no goodbye or anything. honestly, it felt a bit dodgy to me.Hyundai4 yearsI asked some questions and then the person just ended the call on me.4 yearsI thought it might be someone I knew since I was waiting for a call, but it got dodgy real quick. They started asking for all sorts of private details, which was super dodgy. Only took about half a minute to realise it was a proper scam. I’m blocking this number right away.5 yearsGot a call at work from some sketchy guy claiming he was with IBM, weirdly he already had my full name.IBM5 yearsThey kept ringing me up claiming they were from Microsoft. Definitely some sort of scam gang behind it.Microsoft5 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Indian or Asian accent, trying to tempt me with a Jaguar i-Pace test drive. Told him I wasn't bothered. He kept saying he wasn’t actually selling anything, just wanted me to try the car out. I made it clear I wasn't interested at all, then just ended the call. Blocked the number straight away. Reading other comments, looks like they're really pushy trying to get info from folks in loads of different ways.5 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to have my boss’s medical test results and asking for his phone number - definitely felt dodgy like a scam.5 yearsI get weekly calls from some info tech company, and even after telling them to stop calling me, they just keep ringing.Really annoying!Info Tech5 yearsI had to put the guy with the indian accent on pause while i searched up his number here. Well done, thanks a lot. oh no, he’s calling back!5 yearsLooks like he’s giving it another go!!5 yearsNo idea who rang me from this number. After seeing these comments, I think I’ll just block it now.5 yearsI've got a feeling this might be one of those unsolicited calls trying to sell tech services.5 yearsI've been inundated with a barrage of calls-ten in just the past couple of hours, all from folks with Indian accents representing some obscure company offering to send me paperwork. It's become a rather tiresome affair, as I consistently receive about five or six of these repetitive calls daily for more than a year now. The numbers they use seem to fluctuate, mostly coming from the US and UK. Honestly, it's beyond irritating!USUK5 yearsa bloke with a funny accent called but quickly hung up as soon as i said no way was i giving out my boss's phone number.5 yearsI just got a call from some bloke named Geoff, sounded a bit odd, not the usual accent you’d expect. He said he was from this place called ‘tech info' and wanted to send me a PDF about IT security stuff. I told him no thanks.GeoffTech Info5 yearsAs soon as I picked up the phone, the caller just disconnected without saying a word.Submit Your Own Report (020 8099 8870)
