Avoid This Man!

If you receive a call from this number - 07506 332726 - don't waste your time answering it.

An Asian-sounding gentleman advised me that he was aware that I have various debts to credit cards - quite how he knows this he did not advise.

He then told me that I had been selected by a charity which was willing to pay some or all - certainly a substantial amount - of my credit card debt off.

I queried if this charity was going to clear my debt free of charge, and he confirmed that it would.

I advised him that I was indeed born at night - but it wasn't last night!

And I hung up.

I wasted ninety seconds of my life - so you don't have to.

He/they get quite abusive too according to some Google results - best given a wide berth.

Life is simpler for me just now - I have no TV, don't work, don't leave the house unless I have to, don't answer the door and don't answer the phone unless it is close family or close friends (the vet and my GP sometimes phone so I answer that).

What can go wrong.

These calls - the only time I get called madam, it is creepy.

I don't take calls from numbers I don't recognise or numbers unknown. I'll Google the number after they've rung off and if they're known scammers, I'll block them. I get far less nuisance calls now.

Bazile - I thought that you and your ruddy spaceship had that covered for me.
