Spam call?
I just had a call from [MOD EDIT: Spoofed number] claiming to be from VM, sounded like an Indian call centre and started off by saying VM has merged with O2 and have I experienced any issues. Sounded...
Scammers regularly take a real telephone number (belonging to an innocent business or homeowner) and use it as a fake caller ID.
You can tell nothing from caller ID alone when trying to work out who is calling you (as it is easily faked by scammers).
When they phone you again, just hang up without speaking to them
Thanks, and I can see the mod marked it as spoofed which confirms it was a scam. I suspected that's the case.
Actually, my own personal number got spoofed before, I used to get calls from random people saying they had a missed call from me. I don't think anything can be done about it though.😐
