I’m 81 and rely on my phone for emergencies, so imagine my shock when I got messages from Dizzy Discounts out of nowhere. I had no idea how their number ended up on my phone! I was so fed up I sent ‘Stop’ to 666000 hoping it would end. Honestly, this should be against the law - it’s just not right.

Got hit with extra charges on my phone line and now I’m swamped with a ton of random calls I never asked for. It’s linked to some so-called support team from the telco. Pretty annoying!

Scam alert! Was on my iPad when suddenly got a message claiming to be from a supermarket saying I could get free delivery. Next thing I know, money got taken right off my account. Proper dodgy stuff. If you’ve got a phone contract, definitely set your spending limit to zero to avoid this happening!

Be careful, a company named Uquizia just took money right off my pay as you go phone without warning. Total scam, don’t get caught out like I did.

I've come across this dodgy quiz outfit that's popped up on Facebook lately. They claim to be working with big supermarkets and Apple, but as soon as you engage, they sneakily take money straight from your phone bill. Total scam, watch out!
