Had this 3 times today, seems this scam is maybe doing the rounds again.
Automated voice so can't have a rant at it!!
DO NOT PRESS 1 as instructed - probably goes to premium rate number.
My call have come from: 01819325365.

1. If you receive a call, then pressing numbers cant initiate another call, premium or otherwise ..
2. There are threads every week or so regarding this , use search
3. Listing the number is no help, as it is not a real number, is spoofed anyway, and likely changes every time a call is initiated0 -

Pressing 1 will perhaps just tell them that there's a live person on the line, presumably you'll get a "helper" pick up to guide you through the "problem".0 -

I have had these too0

I've had a few in the last couple of days. I only answer my phone because the ringing annoys me. No-one rings me anymore, its all text and email ( my choice).The best portion of your life will be the small, nameless moments you spend smiling with someone who matters to you.0

Only if they get you to give your credit card details, or tell you to hang up and call them back on a premium-rate number.0 -
I never answer an unrecognised number. Only get one now and again as the number is never answered it's probably dropped off the list that gets sold on to the next bunch of scammers.0
