Tried calling to discuss benefits, but it didn’t end well!

Just got another call from a guy with an Asian accent claiming to be from UK Benefits. I also had the exact call but this time from 0141 778 4591. It puzzles me how they manage to spoof a legit area code like that. These calls are happening every day now and it's really starting to annoy me.

They're back on my phone AGAIN - had to block them since they kept ringing nonstop and never said who they were to my CallGuardian. Proper annoying, honestly I wish the gov would just shut these lot down, but the ICO and TPS don't seem bothered. I'll report them once more, even if it probably won’t change much. Anyone got any tips?

About 20 minutes ago, I got a call from a man with an Asian accent who said his name was Allan. He was talking about UK benefits, but it was obviously a total scam.

Got a call from someone with an Asian accent but a very British name, claiming to be from UK benefits. They said they needed to ask me three questions but then just hung up. I never trust these random calls; never give out info to unknown numbers.

Got called by this number three times just this week. They say they’re from UK Benefits but as soon as I questioned them, they just hung up. The calls come really early too - like at 7:30 in the morning! Thought UK Benefits wouldn’t be up and about that early. The caller always has a British name but speaks with an Asian accent, which is a bit odd.

Got a call this morning from someone asking for the homeowner. Told them he wasn’t in. Then they asked if I was family. Didn’t want to chat any longer so I just ended the call. Sounded like they had an Asian accent.

Honestly, how long are these annoying people gonna keep pestering us? Real callers always leave a message, so if you don't get one, it's probably just a scam. These leeches really should be stopped for good.

Never pick up calls from these lot, they keep ringing from all sorts of different numbers. Some say you've won a prize or lottery, others even tell you to check outside your home - pure nonsense. There's actually a free way to block these scam callers, just search online and register for it. Fingers crossed, it’ll help keep these scammers at bay and save you worrying! :)

I got a call from an Asian guy who kept asking me to verify my last name and address before he’d let me say my first name. I just ended the call straight away!

Got a call from someone claiming they were ringing from Blackburn market, needed me to answer three questions. Funny thing is, this is the second time in two days I’ve had a call like this, but the first one was off a woman.

Got a call from an Asian gentleman asking to speak to my missus. When I questioned if the call was unsolicited, he said, 'No, no, I'm not trying to sell anything, just got some questions to ask.' I told him the call was unsolicited and mentioned we’re signed up with the TPS, and that I’d be reporting him. After that, he hung up straight away...
