I rang them back but just got a busy signal. Gave it another go and ended up speaking to some dodgy marketing firm. Had nothing better to do, so I let them talk, all trying to push that Old Spice aftershave stuff on me...

They start by slowly gathering all your info. Claiming they can recover some cash for you after some sort of inquiry. First, they ask for your full name and where you live, then start prying about your job. Next thing, they want your NI number. When I said no, they told me to stay on the call while they passed me to another person, like that was gonna make any difference. Absolute scammers.

Never share personal stuff like your home address, job, email, or National Insurance number! Watch out for these scammers, they seem to be coming from the Bangladeshi British community. Stay safe!

I saw this on Instagram, where they’re pushing a video with a woman wearing a headscarf, saying she can help you get money back. Definitely shady - watch out, don’t just trust them because of how they look. They also ask silly questions like if you have a security password, or they tell you to choose a colour, supposed to be for “security”. Just don’t fall for it.

I've blocked this number already but they keep calling me, it's really starting to irritate me now.
