Make sure to report any dodgy calls you get. I’ve put some info down below. The more people who report these scams, the better chance we have of getting them shut down. Just watch out though, because these days scammers often use AI to record your voice when you’re on the phone with them. If you chat with a scammer for even a few seconds, leave a voice message on your answerphone, or return a call from an unknown number, you could risk having your voice cloned. I’d recommend searching for ‘voice cloning scams’ and ‘saying yes scams’ online, and spending a bit of time reading up on the news stories and official warnings about this serious AI threat. Then spread the word to your friends and family about how dangerous it is. If someone falls victim to this, it could cause years of trouble for them.

Got a call from this number but they didn’t say anything. I’ve blocked it now.

I didn’t pick up, my phone just flagged it as possible spam.

Got a text saying “Lloyds Banking Group: Your credit card application for £1,750 has been declined. If this wasnt you, ring us on 020 3885 0905” – problem is, I never applied for any credit card at all.

I got a call from someone who sounded like a robot talking about damp issues in my council flat. I kept asking them which address they meant, but they just ignored me and wouldn’t answer. Then, out of nowhere, the call just ended. Really annoying. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.

This number popped up on my phone earlier and it flagged it as a telemarketer, so I decided not to pick up.

My phone showed it might be spam, so I didn't pick up. Unsurprisingly, they didn’t leave a message.

My phone rang but I didn't pick up. It wasn't a number I've got saved, and they didn't leave a voicemail or anything.

I got a call from Three the other day, and honestly, if you don’t fancy being hassled with a sales pitch trying to upsell you, best steer clear. Pretty annoying really.

Picked up the call but the person hung up straight away, so I figured it was probably some sort of scam.

If you want to put a stop to scam callers, you really need to report them. I’ve put some info below to get you started. Also, do a quick search on 'voice cloning scams' and spend a bit of time – like 20 minutes – going through news stories, official advice, and reports on this. Loads of scammers are now using AI tech to mimic your voice in calls. If you find yourself chatting to one of these fraudsters for just a few seconds, or if your voicemail ends up recorded, or you end up calling back a strange number, or your voice turns up on social media, you could be in for endless trouble. Seriously, have a look into it and make sure everyone you know hears about it too. This new AI scam stuff is seriously dodgy!

I’ve been getting calls from this number for three days in a row now. I’m not familiar with anyone who lives around there. Pretty sure it’s a scam since they haven’t even bothered leaving a voicemail.

Got a call supposedly from EE, but it was so obviously a con. Don't fall for it!

I called but no one picked up. Honestly, don’t bother even starting with a hello.

Here’s some info on how to report scam calls. I’ve seen some folks here might’ve been targeted already. If you’ve spent more than a few seconds chatting to a scammer, left your voicemail with them, or called them back, or shared your voice on social media, you could be dealing with issues for ages. Look up terms like ‘voice cloning scams’ and ‘saying yes scams’ online. It’s worth spending some time, like 20 minutes, reading about it – there’s loads of news stories and advice from the police. A lot of scammers now use AI tech to record your voice and try to clone it, often to steal money from your bank, on top of their usual tricks. Make sure to read up on it and warn friends and family - this AI scam stuff is seriously dangerous!

i got a call from someone saying they were from sky, but i’d literally just been on the phone with another person claiming the same. i told them straight off that i knew it was dodgy and had just had a call like that seconds before. told them i wasn’t falling for their scam and gave them a piece of my mind. they hung up right after that! don’t let these scams catch you out, be careful folks!

Just got a call, no one spoke, then it suddenly ended. Definitely spam.

I got a call from a number I didn't know, which was almost identical to one I got back on 28 May 2026, except for the last digit being different. Feels like it could be one of those scam calls, if you ask me.

Got a call around 4.20 in the afternoon, looked fishy so chose not to pick up. Definitely seemed like some sort of scam.

Could hear a lot of noise like a boiler room in the background, sounded like a scam call. When I didn’t say a word, they just hung up. My number’s on the TPS list so they’re definitely breaking the rules calling me out of the blue.

I don’t usually answer my phone now because of all the scam calls going around. This number didn’t ring any bells, so I just let it ring out. Since they never called again, I’m pretty sure it wasn’t anyone I actually know.

Got a call from this number earlier today but lucky for me my BT Call Guardian blocked it straight away.

I’m really unsure about who was ringing me earlier.

I picked up one time and they stumbled over saying my name. So I asked where the call was coming from, and then they just hung up on me.

On the phone, the person kept making weird moaning noises, almost like they were breathing really hard or something. It was super awkward to listen to.
