Watch out for this Binance scam! Don’t ever answer the phone or click on any attachments they send. If you’ve got two-factor authentication set up, you can tell right away it’s a fake. Stay safe!

Didn't get any message, not a clue who it was. Just blocked the number 🙄

I didn't recognise the number and they didn't leave any message. So I just blocked it 🙄

Got a text saying my hotel booking got hacked and warning me not to open attachments in emails or WhatsApp. The message was pretty long, which made me wary straight away. Also, it didn’t come from the hotel booking company’s usual number. The number had a +44 at the start, and when I checked with Vodafone, they said that usually means it’s from overseas. I’m definitely going to block it and keep an eye out for any dodgy messages or emails that crop up.

No voicemail or anything. I don’t know who it was. Just blocked the number 🙄

I answered the phone and immediately heard this weird beep, then a woman’s voice said, “Hello, this is Emma Connor, your neighbourhood energy consultant. Are you the owner of this address?” It sounded really familiar, so I tried to cut in and ask something. But she just kept going like she didn’t hear me at all, which made me realise it was probably a pre-recorded message. As soon as the spiel ended, the call just dropped.

Answered a call from someone saying they were HelloFresh, they even called me by my first name!

Got a text supposedly from Nationwide about a phone number change being made to my account on 6th October 2026. They included this code 583214 and said if I wasn’t the one who did it, I should call their support on 020 8072 7450. Definitely feels like a scam to me.

Got a call on Tuesday morning, 6th October 2026 around 10.45am, from someone who said her name was Jackie. She asked if I owned my home, and as soon as I said I wasn’t interested in chatting about that, she just cut the call straight away. No goodbye or anything. I’ve blocked the number using Call Protect now.

I’m not sure if it’s legit, I’ve got call screening on so it’s a bit unclear. Probably safer not to answer if they ring you though.

If you get scam calls, even those silent ones, send a text with the details and number to 7726. They'll ask you to repeat the info to make sure it's correct. Also, use any spam call reporting feature your phone has. Find out more about 7726 online to see how it works for reporting scams. Afterwards, share your experience here. That’s really the best way to tackle these scam calls! Sadly, many people in the UK just ignore them, which is exactly what scammers want. These crooks take advantage of that to carry on with their schemes.

Got a call from a spammer who didn’t say a word – I reckon they were just seeing if my number is legit. Could be linked to ebay or something like that, I guess.

It’s nearly half eight in the evening, why are you ringing me now? Honestly, these scammers are such a nuisance.

Got a missed call from this caller, but they didn't leave any message. I don’t know anyone in Bangor either! After reading the other comments, I’m just going to block it.

I wasn’t planning on answering, no voicemail or anything left. Didn’t think I’d get any calls from abroad, so I’m just blocking and removing the number.

I missed a call from a number I thought might be dodgy. They didn’t leave any voicemail. When I called back, I got a reply saying “Welcome to Asian Telecom, please leave a message after the tone.” Bit suspicious, if you ask me.

I had a call from an energy advisor earlier today but they didn’t pick up. I ended up leaving a voicemail but no reply yet. ####

I keep getting these dodgy calls, probably some kind of scam. Really annoying!

On 5th October, I decided to block the 07874415762 number from 3 Mobile after spotting it as a scam. I've also reported it to bt.com/scams to make sure it’s flagged properly.

They ring me a couple times every day, and it sounds like some sort of robot voice.

Got a text from someone claiming to be Lloyds Bank saying they’d stopped a payment of £364 to Finleys plumbers. It asked me to press Y or N to either clear or cancel the payment. Didn’t sound right at all.

They called but didn’t bother leaving any message.

I got a call from someone claiming to be from Sky but since I don’t have their service I just ended the call straight away.

They rang me but ended up hanging before I could reply. I've gone ahead and blocked their number now.

Saw it pop up as spam so I just ignored and blocked the caller straight away.
