    Thank you for the warning ilovesthechoccies.
    I have not had a call from the number you reported but have had a few calls from a similar number which is also a scam.
    The one's I have received are from 02070603887.

    Oh thank god! I had this last week but the guy wasnt very nice at all. I told him to take me off his mailing list, he's a scammer and I want no part in it. His reply was to whisper down the phone 'F you'! I then told him how disgusting he was a swiftly hung up. The phone went again, this time before I even said 'hello' he asked me; 'stroke my ****'. I was pretty horrified so slammed the phone down(landline) and he persisted to call another 15 times! I didnt answer again butI did ring BT and have them trace the number. I did have to answer a call again from him to be able to do this and type in a code. He continued his disgusting comments and I left him on the phone long enough so they could trace it and hung up. He continued to call until 5.30pm, BT managed to trace it and will call me next week with their findings and bar his number for me :D

    I'd also report it to the police too.

  • Just had a call from these people. They asked me to confirm my email address (stupidly, i did). They told me i had entered a draw to win an iphone (i told them i hadn't) and then asked if i played the lottery.

    After telling them the chances of winning the lottery are highly remote, and i wouldn't play it because its a mugs game, i told them politely that I was going to end this call - so they hung up!

    Now, thank goodness I have an android phone, so i can set their number to 'ignore' and they can never bother me again.

    I had a call from these about 6weeks ago asking for all the above details ,telling me about the comp I entered then they mentioned a lottery,I told them that I do not do the lottery,that then that conversation,I know if I said I was interested they would then want the bank details and that is one thing I would never ever give out ,unfortunatly there are some people that do as to try and win money and then they get scammed .
