Unknown Caller

Called me 13 times over the past two weeks. Ignored 12 times then finally answered. It was difficult to make out what the caller was saying, but it involved damage to a housing association property where he said my son was living. I told him my son did not live in such a property and has done no damage to the property he owns and to stop calling me. Let's hope he does!

Similar, they rang, I never answered. They rang again, I answered, call dropped 2 seconds later. Then they rang from an unknown mobile number I blocked

3 calls in 1 day. I don't say anything when I answer. There was no background noise & the call dropped after a couple of seconds.

Tried to call me twice with an hour on between, so took it the second time. I said hello, no one spoke on the other end and they break connection in 2seconds.

Said they were ringing about problems in social housing and did I have any problems. Only issue is they rang an area that is all privately owned, and quite affluent so alarm bells were instantly ringing for me. Kept him on the line by telling him I have mushrooms growing out of a huge crack in the front of my house. I figured if the horror was ringing to potentially scam me, then I might as well waste a good half hour of his time. 🤣🤣🤣
