David, with an Indian accent, told me he was offering a 40% discount for my O2 account. I told him that I'm far more intelligent than he is and he can't scam me. He hung up..

Rung me acouple of times but didn’t answer guessed it was probably a scam
Scum! Wasting my time! Scammers should get a proper fucking job! Scruffy cunts!
I received a phone call from 0151 453 3247 which I didn't hear because it was blocked by Potential Fraud. Then an hour and half later I received a call from this number 0161 524 3649 which came up as Suspected Spam so not answering it i blocked it, and then restarted my phone incase they were trying to send a virus.
Answer and nobody says anything then they immediately call again again says nothing. Blocked and reported as spam
3x calls in the last two days, from 0161 524 5826, 0161 524 3649 and 0151 453 2556 numbers... Did not pick up & no messages were left either.. Annoying more than anything
They keep ringing using slightly different formats . I do t answer? Then I block the number
Called and when I picked up the phone it took 3-5s for them to speak possibly checking if my number is legit. Said something about O2 then he hung up the phone (Possible scam)
Same as previous reports. Called from an 0151 453 3247 then called from this 0161 number, the first one rang out the second one just rang once.
Exactly the same as a previous message. One call from 0151 then two calls from this number. I didn’t answer either. And no message left
Received a phone call from 0151 453 3247 which rang once and then stopped. Immediately afterwards I received a call from this number 0161 524 3649. It rang twice and then stopped. Obviously, checking my phone number is legit and able to receive spam calls...
Didn’t speak
