Got shouted at by this really rude person on the phone, and they even abused my little boy. They rang us three times, but I ignored the last call. It’s honestly frightening to think about what info they might have on us to be so pushy and nasty.

Honestly, it drives me nuts getting calls from people who clearly don’t speak Welsh, and it happens like three or four times daily! Such a hassle!

You can tell the government couldn’t care less about putting an end to this. I doubt any of the MPs are the ones getting these annoying calls. When some bloke from abroad rang, I told him I’d be passing him straight on to Downing Street. Maybe if they get bombarded with enough calls, they’ll have to do something about it.

We’ve just let them know that our computer’s set to respond soon. She went on and repeated, “What, what?” and then suddenly hung up on me.

Got a call from +52 744 840 earlier - seemed to be from overseas. Nobody spoke when I answered and then the line just went dead. Strange.

I got a call from someone with an Asian accent saying there was an issue with my computer. He asked if I was sitting at the computer right now, but I told him no, I was just watching TV. Then he told me to switch it on and he’d sort it out for me. I said I didn’t have a computer (even tho I do) and he just went, “Oh no” and then abruptly ended the call!

No idea! Might have been a silent call, maybe because my answerphone picked up.

Got a ring from 052744840 earlier today 20/04/2016, some bloke claiming to be from BT, saying they'd emailed me about my broadband being off for a week. I was immediately suspicious, and when I asked him why my internet would be off, he just cut me off. I reckon he would’ve hung up even quicker if I’d said I don’t own a computer (always works for me). Also, seems odd BT would hire someone who barely speaks English properly - bit dodgy if you ask me.

Got a call from a lady with an African accent telling me that someone from the USA was trying to hack my bank account. Honestly, nothing new, just the same nonsense as always. The number they used was 052744840.

It’s really annoying how these scammers are still operating. They just want your bank info and some poor folks might actually fall for it. Wish they’d get shut down for good.

00052744840 Yeah, just tell them straight up you know it's a scam and that you're reporting them to the Indian authorities to get them shut down. Also, I’m not having their racist comments, it’s totally unacceptable!

Got a call today from some typical Pakistani scammers using a ridiculous fake number. Luckily, my call blocker stopped the call before it even rang. Shame, I was kinda looking forward to having a go at these scammy pests.

They rang me three times today all within about twenty minutes, plus once yesterday and twice on Tuesday. The number looked a bit off so I didn’t pick up the first time and then had a quick look on this site to see who it might be. These folks really don’t give up easily, that’s for sure!

I've been receiving calls from this number saying my computer is hacked and that others are using my internet. They claimed loads of people are accessing my network, but that’s not true at all. It's pretty annoying and feels like a scam. Just be cautious if you get a call from +052744840.

If you were trying to find employment prior to receiving those unsolicited calls, that might just be the clue you need. I'd advise against applying for jobs through sites like Indeed, Craigslist, or Monster, despite them being useful to some extent. A more trustworthy approach is to head straight to the official website of the company you're interested in. Confirm that the job opening is genuine and submit your application there. Always type the company's official web address directly into your browser to avoid any potential scams. It’s all too common for individuals to harvest personal details through dodgy job listings, so staying vigilant is crucial.

Got a call from abroad. The person on the other end was a woman with an Indian accent, said she was from "online tech support." I just ended the call right away.

For nearly a month now, I've been bombarded with calls from this number-I'd say about 20 to 30 attempts in total! Just yesterday, curiosity got the better of me, and I decided to pick up. The caller’s heavy Indian accent made it apparent where they were from, as they tried pressuring me into confirming personal details they claimed to have harvested from my computer. They rattled off my email address, the operating system I'm using, the antivirus software installed, and even the model of my laptop! While some might be easily obtained, other bits were rather unsettling. If that number flashes up on your caller ID, it's best to just let it slide. There's not much we can do otherwise. Kudos to the government for their efforts to safeguard our privacy-doing a cracking job of letting it slip away, aren't they? Perhaps those tax pounds could be better spent on our security rather than on frivolous trips or hosting guests at the White House.

Called twice today. On the second attempt, we answered with "Federal Bureau of Investigations // Cyber Scam Division". There was only silence in response. Quite amusing! :)
