Sam calls

Will these Asian Johnny English scammers ever stop ringing me?? I block every number they use but they just keep coming. Anyone else get this 2 or 3 times a week?

I guess to them as they speak English they don't realise their strong accent makes the English names they use so laughable.

Every Christmas Eve for the last 3 years I have been getting between 50 and 80 calls over a 24 hour period from landlines and mobile numbers. I block and report each one but every number is different.

It's just for that one day and never happens again until the following Christmas Eve.

Are you implying Indian people can't have English names?

They are simply carrying out their job, their nationality and name is irrelevant.

I bet you wouldn’t bat an eyelid at a dog called George but you draw the line at an Asian man called Dave. Weird take.

Generally they are scammers so not so sure it's a valid job.

Tell them your name is Jim Browning (YouTube it) and they won't call again out of fear of being hacked

No, Fred. Indian people can only have Indian names and English people can only have English names.

Please can all English people named Daniel, Stephen/Steven, Aaron, Noah, Luke, David/Dave, Matthew etc. all report to Dover at 08:00 tomorrow morning? You will be summarily deported by rubber dinghy back to your name's country of origin.

Thank you for your cooperation and have a lovely day!

Don't be naive you know full well what I am saying. They are scammers trying to get access to our money by hook or by crook, they think people are stupid enough not realise a strong Asian accented person with a name like Peter English, Thomas Johnson etc will fool us. They are scammers trying to steal. If you are not troubled by their English names and nationality you entertain them give them your bank details, let them have access to your computer.

My mate used to work on the call centres in the 90s and he had to ring a Mr Sechs one afternoon and burst out laughing, apparently the guy started shouting stop calling me and doing this it’s not sex it’s sechs, first time he’d ever called but the poor sod must have had it constantly.

As this is your 5th thread, I'm guessing you're fairly new to the forums and haven't quite picked up on some hints and tips.

Here's one, if you want to reply to someone just use the reply and quote function, it's under each message on the right

Seems a lot of naive people on here choose to read into my post things that I did not say.. Let me clarify. I mean every word I said, I DO listen to them first and find out what they want!

O.K. And then I KNOW they are scammers.

I don't care what their nationality is they are crooks and give their country, and if here in the U.K their people here a bad name.

Thanks I have often done that but sometimes the post will not send as the original "quote" has brackets or quotation marks or such, and on my trying to post a reply it won't go through. But thank you for your advice, I shall persevere.

Calm down and stop making assumptions about me allowing anyone to have access to my bank details.

I don't do drama ....

Are you trying to delete the [/ quote] part? because you have to write after that

I know. The only calls I get on my landline are from these chancers.

The amount of calls I've had from Sky just this week about my broadband despite the fact I haven't had sky broadband for years
