Getting Dodgy Phone Calls – Report Here
I got scammed £52 on phone insurance by a company from Swansea called Sealaway. They get numbers from branches of CarPhoneWarehouse (who buy phone numbers in blocks and let you view a list of available numbers and choose one). The scammers presumably must view this system, guess numbers that have been taken and then phone you pretending to be CarPhoneWarehouse or others offering cheaper insurance. Yeah, stupid stupid me..
Only it’s not real insurance (not underwritten by anyone), I got phoned from 01792306900 and searching the web lead to me WhoCalls Me.com. Just put in a number and see if anyone else has reported it and loads of stories- over 7 pages on that number. So recommended as a place to look if you get phone calls that you don’t recognise. The site is very simple and fast; recomended.
