they rung today, I did not answer as I have answerphone : they did not leave message so assumed was not genuine I was right and checked online and see that is a scam as reported. actually answerphone is a good system to avoid scammers /unknown callers /unwanted calls.
I didn’t get to it before my answerphone clicked on. Assume from other comments a scam. Will report to Virgin media if they call back
Called me twice in the last hour, Area Code is Bodmin, Cornwall. I know no-one in Bodmin that would call me on a Saturday afternoon. Each time I picked up but stayed silent - they hung up after a few seconds. This is a new line I've only had for a month and nobody has the number as we never use landlines (I accepted it as part of a package). Having read other comments about this number I'm waiting for another call so I can wind them up, love a bit of criminal baiting!

Lady with South East Asian accent claiming to be from Virgin Media asking for my account details because she said my internet connection would be cut off within 2 hours, which of course it wasn’t. Usual scam
