Received two calls from this number today. Generally, I find most calls from unfamiliar numbers turn out to be scams. I never answer them or return the call. If it’s a genuine caller, they should leave a voicemail, right? Also, don’t forget to report any dodgy texts to 7726.

Absolutely infuriating! These scammers are relentless-ringing, messaging, bombarding me with emails, and even sending fraudulent letters daily. Blocking them is futile, as they just switch to different numbers. I reached out to the local police, and they advised me to make a report to Action Fraud while urging me to raise awareness across social media. It’s clear that these dedicated platforms alone aren’t enough to shield us from such nefarious tactics. The police recommend that anyone receiving these dubious calls or messages share a cautionary post so that more folks can be kept in the loop. Awareness truly is our best line of defence against these despicable crooks! Alarmingly, law enforcement mentioned that these criminals have swindled hundreds of thousands of pounds in just the past few days-so let’s do our part to spread the message and protect one another!

Received a couple of calls from this number today. To be frank, I find that most calls from unfamiliar numbers are dodgy. I tend to avoid answering or returning calls from them. If they're genuine, they'll leave a voicemail. And don’t forget, you can report any suspicious texts to 7726.

Caution is warranted, as they are attempting to reel in your personal details. It’s quite clear they are up to no good!

I received a call from a number I didn’t recognise, but they didn’t bother to leave a message. I’ve gone ahead and blocked them.

Received a call a few days back from a number originating in Northern Ireland. The caller identified herself as Angelina, with an Indian accent. I ended up ringing back later that day, but I’ve since blocked that number! She claimed to represent a mobile network that isn’t mine.

I just turned down that call and added the number to my block list, and I must say, my instincts were spot on!

Fraudulent activity, pure and simple!

Received a call from either India or Pakistan through the internet, and it's undoubtedly a banking scam. Make sure to block and report it, and send a text about the call to 7726.

I received a call from an unknown number claiming that my bank account had been charged £900. They prompted me to "press one for help," but after checking my account, I realised it was all utter nonsense. I've since blocked the number and reported it. Just a heads-up, folks-be cautious of these scammers!

I’ve noticed a concerning trend lately with some suspicious callers attempting to obtain personal bank information, particularly those with Asian accents. It’s crucial to remain sceptical of anything these unscrupulous individuals claim, as there’s likely no legitimate company behind their attempts. If we collectively stop answering these calls, they won't get to our finances. Their choice to mask their identity raises alarm bells. Remember, if a number begins with +44, it's not a typical landline but rather a computer-generated one. Please ensure you report any fraud attempts through the appropriate channels, such as phishing.gov.uk, and don’t hesitate to text "DALL" to 7726 to help combat this. Stay vigilant!
