Bogus calls scams

malinheader

Anyone else having bother with scam calls. Three so far this week. First about a virus in my lap top from an Indian lady.second from supposedly revenue from an Indian man with hardly any English and today from Eir an automated female voice that you could hardly understand. All looking for one thing bank details. Why can't these be traced or stopped.

I know revenue wouldn't ring regarding anything to do with your personal details but I was surprised when the call started with an automated message spoken by an Irish person who then asked you to press 1 to be put through to an adviser. The Eir call was the same.

I had that Eir one this week. I just keep this type of caller on the line as long as possible, ask loads of questions, didder with numbers etc and eventually ask if they want me to keep wasting their time or do they think they can still steal my details if I keep going.

I don’t know anyone from Africa or India so I just don’t answer.

Forward me your IBAN and bic numbers and I will arrange to have a program installed which will block these calls

They are often spoofed numbers and often made from a different continent.
