AI generation calls

"AI trying to sell an Investment"

"I did not pick up. I looked up number and found info explaining that these types of numbers are used via a UK based techbusiness which used to be called Voxbone; the company was bought and is now known as Bandwidth. This company advise on, and sell, AI voice messaging services to businesses who use these systems instead of using human beings to take customers' calls. Scammers frequently use these AI phone systems to assist in operating scams."

"A call with an AI-made voice, from reform, asked for paper votes. After I said my morals don't align, as I'm a working woman, he still wanted my vote. I will vote for Count BinFace again if he's running. I'd never not vote, but politics is a joke now!"

"When I answered the call, a voice said it was Human Resources. The odd voice sounded like an AI. I did not continue the call. Almost definately a scam."

"Stayed quiet. Maybe trying to get you to speak, so they can clone your voice with AI. Instead, make a noise like mmmmyaaa. A sound that's useless but still a reply if it's official. It's spam, cold callers or scammers."

"UK insolvency services AI bot, calling from lots of different numbers"

"Very persuasive AI call that knew my first name. Said they could help save money by switching utilities or white goods insurance and stuff. I mentioned I could save by cutting off my electricity, and it agreed but said I’d lose access to electrical appliances!"

"They couldnt say my name right. Its a simple name! I let them tell me who they were. But they replied the same way and said they were Sarah, bit worrying, might be AI. No one I know."

"I got asked a bunch of questions about my health. They said they were from the nhs aftercare service. I've been in recently, so I didn't pay much attention. 30 minutes later, my own voice with different words was playing back to me. Be very very careful!!!! They called back on the same number asking for my mum and said I need help getting a train home. In the call, they asked if my mum could send my friend Alison the money and help me. I’m stuck in ‘eden berg’ with no way to get home. Yes please, it’s really me mum. AI SCAM!!!"

"It was AI Jo about the loft insulation scam! Search online! There are lots of warnings. Don't talk to them. They could record the call and use AI…"

"It's AI Jo with the loft insulation scam! Check it out online! The internet has loads of warnings. Don't speak to scammers. The call might be recorded and AI could copy your British voice to scam other people. Report ALL scam attempts. Info shared below. Unfortunately, there are people who get caught by these scams. That's why scammers keep doing it. To help protect people AND help cut down the massive amount of scam calls texts and emails that come to the UK daily, everyone should report them to the systems made to handle them. Right now, hardly any get reported so government numbers don't show this is a big problem. That's just what scammers want! And blocking doesn't stop scams. Blocks only stop that single number from ringing YOUR phone."
