I answered after hearing the phone ring twice. The call was from someone named Nathan who wanted to discuss mental‑health support, mainly anxiety, and asked me to share my own experience. The whole exchange felt strange, so I inquired how he obtained my number; he claimed a mental‑health website but couldn’t specify which. When I tried to direct him to professional resources, he abruptly hung up. It was definitely odd, and I have blocked the number.

Expert Opinion
Who would have imagined a polite greeting could spiral into a relentless barrage of harassing messages? These calls often masquerade as mental‑health support but quickly turn abusive, with repeated texts, vulgar language and unwanted personal questions. The safest route is to stop engaging and immediately block the number using your handset or a third‑party app. Keep a log of call times, content and any screenshots, then report the incident to your mobile provider, Action Fraud and, if threats persist, the police. Consider updating privacy settings on any public profiles and, where possible, change the contact number to curb further nuisance.

Misuse of mental health services
A man named Ben phoned us at 10:15 pm, claiming to be a 28‑year‑old struggling with anxiety, especially around women and sex. We listened for half an hour, offering support, but then he pivoted to probing my sexual life and demanding I keep my husband satisfied nightly. After we said the line was closing, he kept calling from a private number, which feels like a prank.

When I answered with a hello, the caller sounded surprised, so I hung up. Based on other notes, I’ll treat this similarly as it seems problematic.

After I’d turned in for the night, two calls from this number hit my business line, leaving me unable to pick up.
A man rang, claiming he needed mental‑health support and thought this was a helpline. He said he was from south‑east London and felt down, expressing distress. I explained I wasn’t a helpline but was willing to listen. He then admitted he’d never even masturbated at 26. I told him he was clearly joking and advised him to see his GP for real help. It’s frustrating when pranksters waste time meant for genuine callers.

That individual was extremely irritating.
Received a “hi” text, asked who it was and they replied “James”. I asked “James who?” and they said “James o”. When I asked if they knew me they snarled “what’s wrong with you?” – I blocked them straight away, cheers.
