I only listen to the voice mails, but they essentially tell me something along the lines of owing £700 and something quid to Burton Skip Hire (or maybe they want to pay that to me? The voice isn't clear enough lol). I have never used Burton Skip Hire's services. 99% sure it's a scam targeting people locally around the Burton area in order to seem more believable, I recommend blocking the number
I think this might be fraudulent? The caller is an automatic voice telling me that a payment for £799 has tried to go though on my Amazon account and they they have placed the transaction on hold. And to press 1 to discuss with an operator. I’m presuming if you press 1 they will then ask you lots of questions and hack your account? Could be genuine but I’m not taking the risk
I am receiving calls from this number but no answer when picked up.
