Ever wondered why that persistent ring from an unknown number won't quit? Reports paint a picture of relentless calls from this source, often flagged as spam with no voicemails left, hinting at automated harassment or worse. One chap even caught them posing as the National Lottery, a classic scam tactic to hook the unwary. While a few mention mortgage advice, the overwhelming vibe screams unwanted intrusions rather than legit outreach. Best move? Block the number straight away to stop the barrage. If they've got your details, consider reporting to your provider or Action Fraud for a proper once-over—keeps things tidy without the hassle.
My phone marked it as potential spam, so I skipped it. They've been calling every couple of days for two weeks now.
Brilliant that I looked it up and appreciate the details. It's blocked at last
Phone indicated it was fraudulent!
Rang from 01246 846971, typical scammer pause before speaking, so I quipped 'National Lottery?' The bloke said 'Yes, National Lottery, cheers' and disconnected
They ring me several times weekly. I won't pick up. Blocking it now
They keep ringing without leaving voicemails, so I've blocked them.
Number blocked.
Near-daily nuisance from them; I skip answering, no messages ever—points to robocall fishing or zero real urgency.
Received 6 calls in the last few days. Talked to them earlier today. They claim to be Mortgage advisory services. I've blocked the number.
Two calls in two days: no message left
