I got a call from a couple of blokes claiming to be from PayPal, but they were just messing about. They tried to get me to install some app called Anydesk, which supposedly lets them control your phone. Thankfully, I caught on before they could nick any of my info or get into my account. Don’t even think about answering or sharing anything with them. The cops are looking into this and they've already got a case going.

This is obviously a scam. I got a message saying I bought a PlayStation with a 2-year warranty from Sony LLC for £706.46 through PayPal. They even sent a PDF invoice claiming it was a security notice if I didn’t authorise the payment. Thing is, I’ve never made this purchase and don’t even have a PayPal account! Totally fake.

Got a dodgy email from someone claiming to be 'EBay Shipment' saying I'd bought a laptop, but I never did. The phone number they gave won’t even pick up, and there’s no links in the email to click on, so I’m not sure what they’re trying to achieve with it. Very weird.

Just got an email claiming I bought an iPad for £1494.99 from “eBay” lol. They told me to ring their “fraud Protection Team” at 0800 098 6525 if it wasn’t me. What a rubbish scam, honestly!!! :-)
