I received a call from a bloke with a thick foreign accent, stating he was from the Citizens Advice Bureau. He claimed that my creditors had reached out and that he could assist me in settling my debts. However, when I probed with a few more questions, he seemed rather lost and couldn’t provide any clear answers. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

I received a call from someone named 'Sam Williams' who had a pronounced Asian accent. He claimed I was facing a debt of £5,000. To be honest, I played along with him for a bit, but when I finally made it clear that I wasn't interested in what he was selling, he had the audacity to call me an idiot before hanging up.

I've received three calls from this number now. The initial one was regarding my debit card, followed by another about an issue with a washing machine. When I kindly asked them to refrain from calling me any further, the bloke on the other end had the audacity to tell me to f#ck off you b##ch!! It’s beyond me how these individuals manage to hide their identities while making such calls!

I received a call from someone claiming to be from 'Citizens Advice,' who had an Indian accent. It felt a bit off, so I decided to terminate the call. Definitely seemed like a scam to me!

I received a call from this number earlier today, where the person on the other end pretended to represent Citizens Advice. They informed me that I had outstanding debts with banks and creditors! I immediately ended the conversation and sent a message to let them know I had contacted the police, as I suspected it was a fraudulent call.

Claimed to be from some sort of Citizens Advice Bureau but then mentioned they were located in Birmingham, discussing a made-up debt of mine. When I threatened to involve Ofcom, he just replied with a smirk, wishing me luck on that front!

I received a phone call from someone purporting to be from Citizens Advice, stating they had information regarding my debts. When I inquired about the amount I owed, he couldn't provide any specifics and instead attempted to talk over me. The conversation took a shocking turn when he insulted me quite horrendously, before abruptly ending the call. Quite unbelievable behaviour!

I've no clue who's behind this number. It just won't stop ringing! Whenever I attempt to return the call, I get a message saying the voicemail is all filled up. Definitely smells like one of those dodgy scam calls.

I picked up a call from a character who seemed to know my entire name and accused me of having some outstanding debt. I was rather taken aback and expressed my disbelief. Before I could say another word, they abruptly ended the call. I’ve now added that number to my block list.

It rang twice but no one picked up, so I decided to block the number.

Said his name was Brian, but was quite offhand when questioned about it.

Received two calls from this number today. I usually avoid answering calls from numbers I don't recognise. Good thing I did!

I never pick up when the caller is unknown, especially if I've put them on my blocked list.

Phoned me up, threw a right fit, and called me a “son of a b****” before slamming the line down. Quite the charmer, that one!

I had a rather unpleasant experience with a bloke who rang me up. I straight away recognised him as a conman since I've come across his name in various reports online. I firmly told him not to attempt contacting me again, pointing out that his details were plastered all over the web. Curiously enough, he hung up quite abruptly after that!

Received a call earlier but chose not to pick up. After scanning through the comments, I realised this isn't the first time I've encountered something similar, albeit from a different number. That one was swiftly blocked, and I reckon this one’s headed for the same fate!

Avoid engaging with this bloke; he’s international and tends to spout some rather unsavoury remarks if you don’t reply to him. It’s quite off-putting, really.

Received two calls from this number, but no one spoke and they just ended the call. Quite odd!

I recently received a missed call from this number. When I tried to return the call from my landline, I was greeted with a recorded message informing me that their mailbox was full. I've decided to go ahead and block the number.

A few weeks back, I received a call from an Indian chap named Alan, and just the other day, a woman with an Indian accent claimed to be from Citizens Advice. She insisted I had some outstanding debts and that she could assist me in settling them. I requested to be removed from their list, but the line suddenly went silent. I strongly suggest ignoring such calls and marking them as blocked!

At first, I was greeted by nothing but silence, followed by some rather tiresome hold music. Then out of the blue, I was approached by someone with a thick accent requesting to have a word with me. I decided to cut the conversation short and hung up instead.
