I got a call from a bloke with an English accent who said his name was Matthew and mentioned something about government insulation that had been installed. After a bit of silence, he just hung up when I didn’t respond. Seemed dodgy to me, so I didn’t bother with it.

Totally a scam call. The bloke had an English accent and claimed to be ringing back about some government refund for loft insulation we supposedly got done. But when I told him we never had any done, he just ended the call straight away!

Got a call from someone called “Sam” claiming there’s a government grant of £5000 for our house, asking who gets what benefits here. When I tried to find out which company he was with and asked for more info, he just ended the call. Had an English accent, but that doesn’t mean much these days.

Got a call with nothing said, just silence. But when I checked, it showed up as some kind of dangerous number. Quite odd really.

I answered a couple of calls from this number, but no one said anything before they just ended the call. When I called back, a woman answered but she quickly hung up after I asked what the call was about. Tried again and a bloke answered claiming to be from HMRC, wanting my name to check my case, but I refused and they just cut off on me.

The caller sounded proper polite but kept asking if I was getting any kind of government cash, like pension credit or something. Claimed he was with some government department. I really don't like these random cold calls, feels more like harassment than anything else. Proper annoying!

I got a missed call from a number, so I decided to ring back. The person on the line claimed to be from HMRC and asked for my name to 'check my file'. They then said I had a legal case against me for tax fraud. When I questioned them about it and asked for some proof that they were really from HMRC, they just ended the call. Later that day, they called again but there was only silence when I picked up.

This tax dodging scam is seriously ancient. Thought they’d given it up by now. I’ve done the usual and flagged it to the HMRC phishing squad and also told the police’s action fraud folks.

Got a call today from someone saying they wanted to talk about loft insulation. I politely ended it and put the phone down. I gotta admit, the person spoke with a proper English accent, which was quite refreshing for a change. Still, no matter how it sounds, a scam’s a scam in the end.
