Blocked this number but still getting 2-4 calls every day since March 18th. Relentless
Calls frequently, when I picked up there was complete silence
Continuously harasses and uses rude language
Calls every day but never leaves message, very annoying
five calls over three days, no messages left
Appears to be Audika Hearing Clinic, calling several times a day.
Called several times last few days but never leaves message. Have now blocked this harassing loser scammer.
The very first time they called it was in evening and as I was expecting a call from someone, hurriedly answered it. After I said hello? No one responded so I repeated myself a couple more times but there was just silence on the other end and then they hung up. I called the number back straight away (as it looked like a local number) and I got connected with a recorded message for Audika in a neighbouring suburb. So I hung up straight away and checked the number for Audika for that particular suburb and it was totally different!
So it would seem this scammy f***er is stealing and using legitimate businesses recorded message info etc to scam ppl.
Definitely Block and report to relevant authorities if you can, folks.
Three calls daily for the past week, first at 7 AM waking me up. Phone flags it as spam. Decided to block after seeing others' reports
Calls during dinner, once answered Indian man tried selling hearing aids, insulted me when I said hearing fine, now calls with nobody speaking
This number has called me 2 to 3 times a day! It's ridiculous they don't get the hint even when their number is blocked.
