Answered and kept the caller busy for 5-mins talking about complete gibberish. They just hung up on me in the end… how rude 😆
Called claiming to be from Carphone warehouse offering 40% off. Non English speaker. Said he was based on London. When asked how he got my details he said from Mother. I pointed out she is dead so that was unlikely. At that point he called me several names including a Motherf£'hs##. Then he hung up. Number blocked.

Asked me about my website and business which I shut down years ago! Sick of it!
didn’t answer, scam definitely..
Scam call. Claime to be from carphone warehouse offering something. Call center was too noisy to mkae out what the offer was, but I have seen enough Scammer Payback and Kitboga videos to recognise a scam.
Claimed to be from Car Phone Warehouse, I asked where he got my details from and he hung up straight away
Very poor English speaker. Claimed to be from O2 - offering 40% off my annual tariff as a Covid thank you. Claimed he was going to send me a six digit confirmation code etc etc. When I told him to call me back later in the week when I wasn't busy at work he insisted this was a time limited offer. Then I knew it was definitely a scam, he realised he was rumbled and hung up.
They was racist and rude asked for card details , scam, just avoid
Carphone Warehouse spam, I hung up when I realised.
Hung up
Called me as I was on another call - will now block.
this number called me today pretending to be from Car phone warehouse - offering me new iPhone 13 pro max, 1terabyte size with unlimited everything for £52 a month with upfront £50 - they asked me to provide details and setup account for me to receive the phone as soon as it available - i told them i will think about it and call me back tomorrow - i then went to online and checked EE website and offers that are on the website for that particular iPhone - the cheapest with what he offered is £98 - so i definitely think it's scam and they are after the initial payment of £50 which i need to pay upfront.
Missed call. Will be blocking have seen the responses here. Likewise, no need for a Sheffield number to call me
