And now I've got, a few times a day, a computer voice on my telephone telling me my Amazon is hacked and that I'm enrolled in Prime for £99 and to press "1" if I want to cancel that. (No, I'm not that gullible.) Followed about 20 minutes later by a caller who doesn't speak/isn't there/has hanged up, and another "nobody there" call about an hour later. Every day. Several times a day. I'm glad we have an answering machine. Come from 0160-687-1726. Or, yesterday's did.
Today already I've had a call that was a hangup. Different number. No message left. I'd chalk it up to spam calls, except that I actually am waiting for a call from any of a number of freight-forwarders about shipping the tropical fish home. One would think those would actually leave a message, though. Or, previous to living here I would have thought that, but I no longer do as I've had so many tradespeople phone without leaving a message or a return number if they DID leave a message. So it's probably the spam caller, changing their spoofed number. Which is now 0325-584-0960.
I've reported the first one to Ofcom and put us on the "do not call" registry, but I don' think that's going to stop this kind of calls. We get maybe one telephone call every few months on that line, sometimes less often, so it's just bizarre to hear that phone ringing several times a day. If I get another from 0325 I'll report them as well.
Aside from that, on a landline, there's nothing else to do, is there?
