Picture this: your phone rings and a stranger claims to be from a credit investigation bureau, demanding payment for debts you’ve never heard of. The call often comes with a heavy accent, vague references to "citizen advice" or "debt advice", and ends abruptly when you question it. Never share personal data, bank details or passwords during such unsolicited calls. Hang up, block the number on your handset and report the incident to Action Fraud or your mobile provider’s spam‑blocking service. Keep a log of the caller’s number and wording – it helps authorities spot patterns. Regularly update your Do Not Call register and stay sceptical of anyone pressuring you for immediate payment.
I'm confused by all the debt collector comment's, this guy called me by my name, and asked if i remembered him, he said his name was Michael, but when i got impatient, he told me it was time to leave this planet, and hung up, saying bye darling, it was absolutly disturbing
A call was received from this number, with the caller claiming to be from the Citizens Advice Bureau, but their reasoning for calling was flawed, and they abruptly ended the call

When questioned, the caller claimed to be from credit investigations, but promptly ended the call, strongly suggesting a scam, and it is advisable to block this number

Had two calls today, they claimed I owed money and were from a credit investigation company, I told them they were scammers and hung up, whats the point of these companys
The call was answered, but immediately cut off, resulting in the number being blocked

07938 536790 A rude man insulted me and called me a liar simply because I didn’t want to discuss a non-existent debt.
Some chap rang me and asked for me by name, then started talking about debt advice, i asked him what company he worked for, he just said debt advice, i told him that wasnt a answer to my question, i told him i dont have any debts and i didnt want to speak to him, so i hung up

Yes, some fool claiming to be from a credit agency. When I called him a scammer, he told me to f### off.
This is just another example of the usual scam tactics, attempting to deceive and manipulate unsuspecting individuals
It's aparent they are activly making calls, I recieved two calls from them, one of which I answred, the man claimed I had debt issues, which I absolutly dont, and when I asked if he was cold calling me, he just repeaded the same thing, be carefull not to pick up calls from this number
The caller asked who they were speaking to, and when I turned the question back on them, they became evasive and eventually hung up.
These scammers couldnt even get my name rite, they said they were from the credit investigations department, what a load of rubish
Tonight, I've had three calls from this same number, which is quite persistent - it's a good reminder to never answer calls from unknown numbers on my mobile.
