Pretending to be O2, called 10 seconds earlier on a number that's only 1 digit different at the end. Definitely NOT O2.

Caller showing from ‘Bungay’. I never answer, just block the number having Googled the number. Alternative numbers used by the same caller, and again numbers blocked. Numerous calls received over the past two weeks. These people are a pain the a**e!

I keep blocking numbers like this and they just switch to another one. It is becoming persistent and very annoying behaviour.

Indian scammers as confirmed by other posts. BLOCK

User reported 01986 300 205 as Dangerous

These Indians have been harassing me for over five years. They initially obtained my information from the WHOIS database years ago when it was publicly accessible, and they have been harassing people ever since. Today, they called, asking me about an old domain. I gave them a very direct and negative response. Moreover, when you call the number back, an automated message identifies them as some kind of energy firm, suggesting they operate a variety of different scams. They use hundreds of different numbers, making it impossible to block them. The only option is to engage them with abuse.

Indian scammers using VoIP

User reported 01986 300 205 as Dangerous

Received an unsolicited call regarding mobile provider upgrade, sim card swap for discounts. The voice was distinctly Indian, script sounded rehearsed. I'm not even due for an upgrade, so obvious fake. Ended the call, blocked, and checked my account just in case. These cons prey on people who might not question them.
