I recently got a call from the number 02381 ###, featuring a recorded message from a woman purporting to be from 'Bank Security.' She had the audacity to say there had been two sizeable withdrawals from my account, supposedly to Amazon-completely untrue, I might add! I've encountered numerous calls like this in the past, likely from this number or one not far off. Honestly, I’m utterly fed up with these vile scam calls. It's high time action was taken to put an end to this nonsense!

I constantly receive emails and text messages from a number (02381###), claiming that I have been enlisted in a mobile phone service called Dealsaints. They threaten to charge me a weekly fee of up to £4.### unless I contact them. After verifying with my mobile company, I have come to realize that this is a scam. Nevertheless, it continues to frustrate and aggravate me.

Today, I have received 4 calls from the number 02381###, which has become quite bothersome. Even after blocking the number, they continue to leave voicemail messages on my cellphone at ###. These calls are distressing as they claim to be from HMRC and threaten legal action against me. Taking care of my disabled husband adds to the upset caused by these calls. Although I haven't returned any of their calls, I am unsure how to completely stop them. Any suggestions?

Today, I have received three phone calls from numbers beginning with 02381. There was an Indian lady on the other end, who insisted that she was calling from BT and mentioned a supposed issue with my internet connection. Despite expressing my doubt about her claims, she remained adamant. Seeking resolution, I requested to speak to a manager or supervisor, only to be denied and abruptly hung up on. Despite blocking the numbers responsible for these calls, I find it frustrating that they persistently use different ones. It seems this ongoing situation can't be addressed effectively, which is extremely infuriating.

Got a call from 01782439028 telling me my internet was compromised and they needed to run some security checks. They asked what gadgets I had like laptops, I told them just a tablet. Then they put me through to a bloke saying there were bets placed on gambling sites in my name. When I denied it was me, he said he’d block the transactions. Asked if I do online banking, which I said I don’t at all. He also brought up eBay and Amazon orders that I actually do use. Then he abruptly ended the call. Proper scary tbh.

01782439028 rang me claiming my internet was compromised and they needed to run some security tests. They asked about the devices I own, like laptops or whatever. I told them just my tablet. Then a guy came on saying there’d been gambling transactions, and when I said I hadn’t done any, he said he would block them. He asked if I ever do online banking, I said no way, never. He also mentioned eBay and Amazon orders, which I do use. Then suddenly he just hung up on me. Honestly, it really spooked me.

I received a call at around ### AM today, on ###/###/###. Despite informing them to remove me from their contact list, I am continuously receiving these calls. They usually ask if I am Mr/Mrs ..., attempting to manipulate me into answering "Yes." However, I always refrain from using that word. At present, there is a prevalent scam where individuals aim to obtain your voice saying "Yes" in order to fraudulently make purchases in your name. Whenever they inquire about my identity over the phone, particularly if I detect an Indian or Pakistani accent, I avoid providing any confirmation. Clearly, they have disregarded my request to be removed from their call list.
