Tried to ask me about my covid vaccinations. I told him it had nothing to do with him and he waffled on about being with the NHS. I then said "No you aren't " and he put the phone down.

Came in as potential fraud on my phone display so I didn't answer. Looking at other comments here seems I was right to be suspicious.

Thought it was an important call so answered. Should have realised it was spam when the woman wouldn’t hold for a couple of minutes while I walked outside to take call. When she said Covid-19, that’s when I realised it was spam and hung up! Blocked now!

Said he was calling about covid, asked him where he was from and he said NHS test and trace so asked him to give me proof of that. He said ok then asked me to prove it?! Told him he needed to verify who he was I didn’t need to do anything. Gave me an ID number but when I asked where I could look that up he said an NHS office in London, told him that sounded suspicious and he hung up 🤷🏻‍♀️
