02081447888 - really pleased I didn’t pick up when this number rang. I pretty much never answer calls from unfamiliar numbers coz if it's something vital or legit, they’d leave a voicemail. Checked this number online and it's obvious it’s just a scam. Best to block and ignore it.

I only give my phone number to a small circle of people. So when I noticed this number calling, I just let it go to voicemail. Relieved I didn’t pick up. It’s so annoying that my number keeps getting passed around without me saying okay. I always flag these scam calls as risky because for lonely or vulnerable folks they can be really harmful.

020 8144 7888 called me and pretended to be Carphone Warehouse, saying they could offer a cheaper plan for £15 a month, any network and a phone included. I mentioned a Samsung Galaxy, but they asked for a deposit upfront that they said I'd get back once the contract began. They didn’t sound English, I talked to two different people and I reckon they were probably from India.

I received a call from 020 8144 7888, and the individuals on the other end claimed to be associated with Carphone Warehouse. They were offering me a tantalisingly low deal at only £15 a month with any network, including a mobile phone. I mentioned my interest in a Samsung Galaxy, but then they threw in the catch - an upfront deposit, which they promised I’d get reimbursed after kicking off the contract. I found their accents distinctly non-British; in fact, during my chat with two of them, I had a strong impression they might be from India.

Just got called a few times by 03335565838, and each call was from a different 'company'. The first one was some automated voice saying it was PayPal, then the next time it was someone claiming to be from Lloyds bank, and the last call said it was the national crime agency. Definitely feels like a scam to me.
