The best way to scam them back if your unfortunate enough to have picked up the phone is to let the conversation start then within a few seconds, just say 'hold on a moment, someone is at the door', then just put the handset down so the phone call is still active and go about doing what you was doing before the phone call. All the time they are waiting, they are having to pay for the phone call. The scammer will eventually get the message and terminate the phone call.Re: Indian scammers - BBC Panorama
They also use `spoofing` when ringing mobile phones (trying to present themselves as land-lines) - I don't know anybody from `Fort William` or `Hungerford` so know that they are scams. I get at least three of these nuisance calls on my mobile every day - luckily, my phone knows that they are Spam and get flagged as such. I block them, so they can't get through again and then check the number on whocallsme website to see how dangerous the call would have been.Re: Indian scammers - BBC Panorama
I've noticed recently the calls to my landline from the Indian scammers are from mobile numbers, they never used to be. Then calls to my mobile more often than not are those where "we are calling regarding the recent motor accident you had" (it was a cracked windscreen), these are from the London or Birmingham area and are from landlines.Re: Indian scammers - BBC Panorama

I get a lot of calls on my mobile from 0843 numbers which ring very briefly. I presume they think I'll see the missed call and ring it. A quick google suggests that they are from Indian mobiles. Must be some sort of scam but I'm not sure where the profit for them is.Re: Indian scammers - BBC Panorama
