We got a withheld number yesterday, and when I answered, this person told me
he was from Microsoft, and advised me to check my computer. Well I just
love this sort of thing, so I gave him a real mouthful which is not fit for
repeating here. Sometimes I can give these scammers a wind-up, but I didn't
have time for it yesterday, so he got an earful of abuse instead. Wherever
possible, people should reveal their number, but those who are ex directory
often won't.
Kind regards,

fair point, it's a difficult one in that case. I always tend to give my
mobile number to hospitals and doctors, at least if my phone reads out that
it's with held I can choose to answer or just divert them to voicemail. Most
medical centers do tend to leave voicemails.
cheers,
Mo.

and we do want to take those calls.

Hi John.
I would block calls from international numbers and also calls from
with held numbers. Your provider should be able to do this. since i've
done this, touch wood we've not had any nusence calls.

Hello list,me
I am not sure if this is off-topic, but I am sure the moderator will
let
know if it is.claim
I am registered with both the Telephone Preference Service and the
Mobile Preference Service which keeps the majority of nuisance calls
from hitting me. However I do still get a number of international
calls which do get through. That is, as I understand it, because TPS
and MPS only cover calls emanating from within the UK.
Both yesterday and today I have had a call from a withheld and an
international number that claims to be working on behalf of TPS. They
to have been notified by my phone supplier that I have been receivingas
international calls which turn out to be scams. After a few moments
of discussion with them and, of course, with no information being
given by me they have both abruptly hung up. In my view that proves
they were both scams.
So don't get caught by this new one.
I am aware that I can get things like call blockers and also units
