I've been getting a lot of calls from strange numbers starting with 078 lately. When I did pick up one time, there was just silence for a bit then they just ended the call. Some of the numbers I've seen are 07803 398912, 07883 983548, and 07835 837403. I've blocked all of them and flagged them as spam, fingers crossed it stops soon.

Got a call from a 078 number late at night asking for my bank details for some insurance I never bought. They wanted me to transfer money but I said no way. Then they tried to tempt me with a 10% discount on insurance I don’t even have. Felt really dodgy and I’m sure it’s a fake company trying to scam people.

Got a call today at half past two from 0781 066 9908. Some bloke with a thick accent said he was from Amazon and was ringing about a £79 order I supposedly placed. Thing is, I haven't ordered anything and not sure how he got my home number since it's meant to be private. Could hear loads of people talking in weird accents behind him. Told him I didn’t understand him and ended the call, then blocked the number straight away.

Ever since I set up my Amazon account, I've been getting calls from numbers starting with 078. The last few digits always change. They never say anything, just silence. The moment they hear you speak, they hang up. I think it's quite worrying, to be honest.

This person called saying they were from Amazon and claimed someone tried to buy a £49.99 gift card on our account and said it had to be cancelled. They even had some info from our Amazon account! We rang Amazon straight away and it turned out it wasn’t them. We’ve now put all the proper security measures in place.

I got a call from 07817 425020 at about 10.53am on the 10th of December. The person said they were with Amazon and claimed someone tried to charge over a grand on my account. They asked me to unlock my phone and show them my apps. I told them there’s no way I’d give my password while on the call. They kept pushing, quite insistent actually. I said I’d ring Amazon directly and then ended the call. The voice sounded Asian, maybe Chinese.

Somebody called saying they were from Amazon and claimed a £1100 phone was bought on my number, asking if I wanted to cancel it. When I asked which card, they couldn't explain, then I asked why the price was in dollars when I live in the UK. They stumbled over their words and said pounds instead. I told them straight away it was a scam and ended the call. The number started with 078, but when I tried calling back it was no longer working.

Got a call from a 078 number at about 8:30 this morning saying my bt internet and phone line would be cut off because of “suspicious activity” and asked me to press 1 or 2. I just ended the call and rang bt to check - they said everything was fine and that it was a scam. After that, I’ve had about five calls from numbers starting with 078 and 009 but they just hang up after a few seconds.
