Like an uninvited guest rifling through your drawers under the guise of friendship, these calls from persistent nuisances seek to extract personal details without consent. Reports highlight aggressive tactics, including hang-ups and profanity-laden rants, often linked to overseas operations masquerading as legitimate services. Such behaviour contravenes data protection laws, treating your information as fair game. Block the number immediately to stem further intrusions, and report to authorities like the ICO for potential GDPR breaches. If details were shared, monitor accounts closely and consider a credit freeze. Staying vigilant curbs these digital prowlers effectively.
I was waiting for a call from a company that claimed a London call centre, they butchered my name, I asked who it was and they started swearing at me, “why are you wasting my f***ing time…”, proper nightmare, mate.
Picked up, and they immediately hung up.
Got a nuisance call from a housing‑disrepair crew, probably an Indian call centre gathering data – proper harassment, yeah.
