A chap named Aiden, claiming he wasn't just another salesman, reached out regarding an ad in a construction guide that we were considering renewing. When I informed him that I managed that particular aspect and that we'd never had any advertisement with them, he became quite impolite and simply hung up, obviously frustrated that he wasn't making any headway. Clearly a scammer!

What a farce! I received a call from someone insisting they chat with our managing director. When I refused to engage, things took a rather amusing turn, and they started hurling insults at me! Can you believe it? Absolutely laughable!

Watch out, mate! I had a dodgy call from this bloke who simply terminated the conversation as soon as I began to probe him. Definitely a scammer!

Had a dodgy call claiming to be from some construction publication. Definitely not the real deal!

Received a dodgy call regarding an advertisement for a publication that doesn’t even exist. The number won’t accept incoming calls, and as soon as you begin to probe him for more information, he simply ends the conversation. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

Received a rather dodgy call claiming we had a deal regarding an advert, and that we were in debt. Cut the line when I mentioned that we record our conversations and have never entered into any advertising arrangement with Construction Mag.

Received a dodgy phone call promoting some sort of advertising slot in a supposed 'Construction magazine'. Complete nonsense, if you ask me. As soon as I probed with a few questions, the caller abruptly ended the conversation. I attempted to ring them back, but it seems the line is dead. Quite the con!

I received a call where the person asked for the director by name, claiming they were following up on an agreement to renew our advertisement in a local construction magazine. That’s a bit odd, considering we had decided six months ago that we wouldn’t pursue any magazine advertising. It definitely feels like a scam to me. Just a heads-up to everyone—stay vigilant!
