"rang me at 13:42 today and when I answered the call they hung up. It is not a number I recognise and I have been receiving multiple calls supposedly from Sky trying to get me to go on my computer to check an email and link for a new sim card that I have not asked for and do not understand why it is needed. The calls never come from the same number"

"Claimed to be from my bank via a recorded message and reported suspicious charges on bank cards from amazon and zoo. Obviously the charges did not exist and it was trying to get me to connect to someone to take control of accounts. Very obvious but as they are still running these scams they must work on some people. If worried never press a button to connect to someone, first hang up and make sure you have disconnected, then ring an official number for your bank which is on a statement or other official communication."
