Scam calls

Hi peeps.

 

Newbie alert, and I have introduced myself, so any further self praise is not needed!!!

 

Today, for the first time since joining the Vodafone/Voxi family, I have had so far 9 scam calls, all with the same starting number. 07900 (The same as mine.) 

 

Even on my previous network, I never got any at all. They all purport to Amazon. I block one, then another come along.

 

Any ideas?

Hi @Quinny1964! You're able to report scam calls to our fraud team who will investigate the number and shut them down.

To report the spam calls, please text "Call" to 7726. This won't charge you, you'll then receive a text asking for the number that's contacted you. Once you've forwarded the number over, this will be reviewed by the team 🙂

All done. 10 of them all received in a short time frame.

I had this for ages.
Do you use any 2 factor authentication for websites ?

Reduced mine to minimal, like paypal and ebay only.
I removed all 2FA from all Google, Facebook, and others i considered junk.  Changed passwords.

The dodgy calls stopped after that 🙂
