01293 267984 called from BT Openreach and said my Internet connection was compromised and but they would help if I could use my computer. I asked the Asian man what his name was Steve he said. Steve what? Wright he replied. So, your name is Steve Wright? Oh, you've hung up! Apart from the name, BT and Openreach are two seperate companies one of which I work for!

' UK Health Servcies ' out and about again. but clearly this number and its associates run all kinds of scams.
Just had this phone number call mum. The lady told mum she was doing a health survey and when I rang back this number an Asian sounding male told me Active Alarms (panic buttons etc for elderly). Sounds like a scam to me!!
Asked for me by name. I asked who she was, she insisted that I confirm my age before she replied. I said "Don't you think it's very rude to ask a complete stranger how old they are?" at which she asked me again to confirm my age. Told her to mind her own business. Clearly a non-native speaker of English. Waste of time.
Pretended to be my "medical advisor", wanting to know about my blood pressure, etc. Hung up when I refused.
Female caller asked "are you [my name]. I answered yes and thee call was immediately ended.
Asked for me by name and when I requested who was calling an foreign voice said "your father". I put phone down
01293 267 278 phoned today, but hung up when my answer machine answered.....
They hung up when i answered the call so must be scammers
Silent call.
Asian sounding female said she wanted to ask me some questions, but when I asked for her name or company name she started rambling on with a strong accent and, when I told her I couldn't understand a word she was saying, she hung up. Obviously a scam.
Asian sounding lady said she was undertaking some kind of health survey and wanted to obtain personal info. I advised her to get a real and honest life and stop making scam calls. She then just hung up.
A number operated by the tin pot Telco "Localphone Limited". How these jokers get a licence-to-spam from Ofcom, I'll never understand. Auto blocked!
Child-like voice asked if I was Mr [used my name]. "I said who's calling". They said "Your father" and hung up. I'm sure they don't have phones in heaven!
hung up when call answered
