Approach calls from unfamiliar numbers with caution, especially if they arrive unexpectedly or at odd hours. These reports paint a picture of persistent unwanted contacts, often with no response or aggressive follow-ups, pointing to scam or harassment tactics. Hang up immediately if anything feels off—don't engage in conversation, as it can confirm your number is active. Block the number on your phone and report it to your provider or Action Fraud to curb further nuisance. For peace of mind, verify any claims directly with official sources like your mobile network, never using details provided by the caller. Staying vigilant helps protect against fraudsters preying on the unwary.
When the number finally appeared late in the evening and nobody responded, it felt quite unsettling— I'd label it as harassment, mate.
An unexpected Saturday morning call went unanswered and left no voicemail, leading me to suspect a scam.
They rang claiming to be Three; I kept them on a bit then swore at them in their own language, then they called back on a spoofed line and I told them off again, mate.
I didn't recognise 01951689347, wasn't expecting a call, so I let it go to voicemail.
Looks like O2 fraudsters are at it again, mate.
Around 1300 hrs on Saturday 31/05/2025, an unexpected call purportedly from Colonsay, Scotland rang my phone. I didn’t answer and a reverse lookup flagged it as spam.
Another round of scam calls, very frustrating 😡🤬
