Yes I too got an unwanted call today from these dodgy people.

I certainly won't be calling them back nor will I ever supply them with any personal details - especially bank account numbers.

There may be no connection, but ironically today I also got a nuisance call from 0361650698. I called the number back on a landline - which doesn't display the caller number - and my call was answered by a questionable sounding woman from "Lifestyle Services". I shudder to think what that could imply!

I got a call today from this number. The woman I spoke to said she was calling to tell me about personal insurance. I asked her how she got my number and she said it was probably because I filled out an online survey.

I told her I wasn't interested in insurance and she made a big huff and puff and hung up.

I've got a call three times from this number today. I haven't answered it because I don't normally answer numbers I don't know. But looking at all these comments I'm sure it's a spam!

Iv gotten about 5 calls a day from this number. When I answer it is in delay so I hang up when I try and call back it says its disconnected. It is a spam and should be blocked. Its gotten very bad that they call 5 times a day.

They just call and hang up when an answering m/c starts up. I never answer unless someone I know starts to leave a message, this is best policy.
