My phone blocked this as a scam call. Scammers seem to be using 0161 numbers pretty frequently at the moment.

Indian call centre saying they are from O2 . Told the woman she was a liar and hung up.

Scam/Fraud
02 Jul 2025

Autodialler makes brief call to see if you pickup, and then cancels. If you did, the autodialler passes number to a human scammer who knows you are in. Then claims to be from O2, which is not "my internet provider", actually, in a thickly foreign accent. I suppose they go on to set up a direct debit to Uganda so I can get a price reduction, or something.

Caller: Fake O2
