Claiming to be Vodophone, when I told him I don’t use vodophone he asked what one I do use. I told him I’m not sure why he needs to know that and he started getting angry saying just tell me. When I pointed out there was no need to get angry or for me to tell him he hung up.

I’ve had several calls claiming to be from Vodafone telling me my sim needs changing. I block the number each time and they call back using different mobile numbers.
