4 yearsIf you take a minute to look through the comments here, you might see why these scam calls just don’t stop. There are loads of posts showing how to report dodgy calls straight to the cyber crime police. Yet, most folks either don’t bother checking or, even if they do, don’t bother actually reporting anything. That’s exactly why the scammers never get caught and just carry on laughing all the way to the bank. As soon as one scam hits, they’re onto the next, switching numbers but using the same dirty tricks.4 yearsHave a look through the posts here. It’s important to report every scam you come across directly to the cyber crime police unit - they’ve made it straightforward for everyone to flag scam calls, messages, emails and other dodgy stuff. When I spoke to my local MP about the ridiculous amount of scam calls I keep getting, they directed me to do exactly that. You’ll find info on how to report right on this feed. Scammers definitely don’t want folks to know about this, but if we don’t report these fraud attempts, nothing will ever change or get fixed.4 yearsJust got a call pretending to be my mum, sounded like a total scam.
