I’ve stopped picking up unknown numbers altogether. I just do a quick search on here first and then decide if it’s worth calling back. This one’s been blocked.

Some one with a strange accent, sounded like they was calling from far away. I could tell it was dodgy so I ended the call quick and checked on here. Turns out they're scam artists trying all kinds of dodgy stuff.

Quite strange, it wasn’t HMRC but some bloke named Simon ringing me about inspecting the glass on my windows and doors. Definitely didn’t sound like he was from Antrim, more of an Indian subcontinent vibe to his accent.

Got a call from some scammers on 02894600171 trying to get my bank info. I rang my bank back on a different number and they confirmed it was definitely a scam, saying they’d never ask for that kind of stuff. They suggested I get an answerphone so I could manage who calls me instead of the scammers calling the shots.

The other day, a lady approached me inquiring whether I was in the market for a business loan. Her accent was rather thick, far more challenging to understand than my own, and as an outsider myself, I must admit I struggled a bit. I simply responded that I’m quite well-off!

Our company got a call from this number, and since we're located in Northern Ireland I didn't suspect anything weird at first. But when we picked up, the audio seemed to glitch like it was buffering, then after a short delay a robotic voice said "Goodbye". Definitely not calling them again.
