I got a call from a number that’s on the TPS list. They didn’t bother leaving any voicemail either.

Got a call on my landline from an unknown number, but they didn’t bother leaving a message. Pretty sure it was just some scammer trying their luck.

I didnt pick up since the number code looked a bit unusual and I wasnt sure who it was.

Got a text saying it was a Lloyds Bank alert, telling me to call this number 03300590029. Seemed a bit off to me.

Got a text from 07495950853 saying there was a purchase made with Lloyds bank. Definitely looks like a scam. Be careful!

Somebody told me I bought Apple gift cards worth £800 through my Amazon account, but I don't think that's true at all.

When I saw the call come through and the caller already knew my name, it definitely set off alarm bells. They didn’t leave any voicemail, so I just figured it was probably some sort of scam.

I just ended the call. Every day this week, at the exact same time, I got a call from a new number. Each time, it ended the same way.

Got a call off someone pushing double glazing, kept going on about how good it was but I wasn't having any of it.

The number showed up as a possible sales call, so I just let it ring out.

Got a call about some repairs they said needed doing, felt dodgy to me. Could be a real risk, especially for people who aren’t on their toes.

Got a call from a number I didn’t recognise, so I didn’t pick up. No voicemail or anything left. Decided to check online to find out who it might have been since I was curious about past calls too.

Yet again, some dodgy callers ignoring TPS regulations. I've sent a report to [email protected] about them.

Got a text from Morocco claiming to be NatWest asking me to confirm my account using this number. I never requested anything like that!

I tried ringing the number back but it just went to some recorded message about “consumer lifestyles.”

This number 01592421987 has been ringing me non stop recently. I just don’t pick up cos it’s so annoying. Honestly, no clue why it calls me every single day!

Got a call from someone claiming to be with the Housing Disrepair Team, asking if I was still having problems with my council house. When I asked where they got my number from, they said the council or housing association. Thing is, I’ve never lived in a council property, so I just ended the call.

Got a call from a number I didn’t recognise, didn’t pick up and they didn’t leave any voicemail. Looks like it’s another one of those scam calls, so I’ve just gone ahead and blocked it.

Picked up the phone but no one spoke, it showed up as possible spam so I’ll just ignore it next time.

Got a call from 0141 467 4659 but they didn’t leave any voicemail. Looks like it could be spam, so watch out!

A bloke called Ali rang me up and started going on about some unsupported debt or something. I told him I wasn’t interested in chatting and just hung up straight away. Then I blocked his number so he can’t bother me again.

I only managed to say “hello” before they hung up on me. Apparently, they called me along with about 10 others in just eight minutes or so. Bit odd, if you ask me.

They only seem bothered about contacting homeowners, so I just blocked the number. Don’t bother replying 🤬

If you want to help reduce scam calls, send the caller’s number and any details, like silent ringing, to 7726. Make sure you reply to any follow-up texts to verify the report. Also, don’t forget to use your phone’s spam reporting feature if it has one. There’s a useful post about this right here on the site. Search for '7726' and '[email protected]' to find out how to report suspicious calls, texts, and emails. I also looked up 'will blocking numbers stop scam calls' and 'can scammers record and copy your voice' - some really eye-opening stuff on staying safe with phones!

Got a call flagged as possible spam, so I didn’t pick up and just blocked it straight away.
