4 yearsGot a call from some idiot pushing their dumb deals. Just blocked and erased the number. Total scam, avoid!4 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with Virgin Media, trying to push me to upgrade my SIM. As soon as I started quizzing them, they just ended the call. Bit dodgy if you ask me.Virgin Media4 yearsToday, on 20th April 2021, I got a call from someone about my sim card. As soon as I heard the voice and the way they kept saying ‘Madam’, I knew it was dodgy. I decided to be as ridiculously polite and overly sweet as possible, just to mess with them. After that, I told them I didn’t want to continue the chat and ended the call.4 yearsSome bloke said he was Alex from O2, but I reckon he was actually Ranjit or summat. Talked so fast I could hardly keep up and didn’t bother hearing a word I tried to tell him. Proper annoying!AlexRanjit4 yearsGot a call from someone with an Indian accent claiming to be from Carphone Warehouse, talking about some mobile deals. Once I told him exactly what I thought of the call, I just hung up. Number was 08713096241. Total scam in my opinion.Car Phone Warehouse4 yearsI got a call but they hung up before saying anything. No voicemail or message left.4 yearsI saw a post here from 15/04 that explains how you can report these scams. It’s also a good idea to let the police know by using the action fraud website.Action Fraud4 yearsIt’s pretty clear this scammer hasn’t kept up - Currys has been Currys PC World for over two decades now, so they must be stuck in the 90s or something!PC World4 yearsSeeing all these stories just makes me glad my phone automatically blocks calls from numbers I don’t recognise.4 yearsGot a guy on the phone saying he was from Currys, but when I told him I hadn't bought anything there in ages, he just dropped the call.Currys4 yearsSome bloke with an Indian accent rang me, said his name was "Alex" and he was from O2. Seemed quite dodgy to me.Alex4 yearsBeware of the deceitful scammers posing as Magrathea Telecommunications Limited! It's best to report them and avoid answering their calls at all costs!Magrathea Telecommunications Limited4 yearsDefinitely a scam, had someone with an American accent calling.4 yearsReceived a call on Easter Sunday! I didn’t pick up as I reckon no proper company would be ringing at such a time!4 years08713096241 - Mobile scam alert. I got a call asking about my monthly charges and I said if she worked for Virgin Media, she’d already know that. Then she claimed she couldn’t share info because of ‘Customer Confidentiality’. I told her my surname started with CAM and my first name initial was S! When she still didn’t get it, I asked for my 4-digit password, the one I set up with Virgin Media! After all, anyone could be calling pretending to be them! She didn’t seem too pleased, so I just hung up. Watch out, these scammers are really dodgy!Virgin MediaVirginVM4 yearsWatch out, total scam! Better block that number right away…4 yearsTotal scam, tried calling me nonstop. Stay careful everyone!4 yearsGot a call from a spoofed cell number again - no way to text them back. When I tried ringing, it just said: The number you have dialled can’t be connected. Feels like a scam to me, so I’ve blocked it straight away!4 yearsI picked up the call but they just stayed silent and ended it after around 20 seconds. To be safe, I went ahead and blocked the number immediately.4 yearsGot two calls from this number today. I had loads of calls on Monday, which was a bank holiday, but those were from a mobile, so I just blocked them. Just added this one to my block list as well.4 yearsNot sure who it coulda been, I just let it ring out and never picked up.4 yearsMy partner got a call from someone saying they were from Three and that her contract was due to renew, so she could get an upgrade. Next thing, they tried to withdraw money straight from her bank! Proper dodgy.3 Network4 yearsSome bloke rang me saying he was from this firm called Modjo, asking about a crash I had a few months ago when another driver hit me. He said they wanted to pay me a compensation lump sum for the hassle of being stuck in the car, which was true so I kept listening. He claimed to have info on the accident but wouldn't confirm anything due to confidentiality. All he did was ask yes or no questions and then said he’d bring someone senior onto the call, which is when I ended it. He rang me twice more but I didn’t pick up and he never left a message.Modjo4 yearsFraudster Alert! Be wary of this con artist!Alert4 yearsMy partner received a call that pretended to be from the phone provider, 3, claiming to offer her a new contract and an upgrade since her existing one was up for renewal. However, after the conversation, she reached out to 3 for clarification, only to be informed they had no record of such an upgrade or any call made to her! To add to the bewilderment, they attempted to withdraw money from her bank account, despite previously assuring her that no payments would be taken until the end of the month!Submit Your Own Report (0871 309 6241)
