Oi, got a voicemail from some bloke claiming he's Tony and I've been 'selected' for a new phone. Can you believe it? The moment he realized I didn't answer, he dropped the F bomb and hung up! Classic scam alert, mate!

I get a call yesterday, and then today they ring again telling me I’ve won a free phone—what a load of rubbish! I struggled to understand their accent, and once I mentioned I’m a minor, they just hung up. Ugh, how annoying!

Received a call yesterday and then rang back today claiming I'd won a free phone. I was like, "Mate, I can't understand your accent!" So I told them, "I’m a minor, just leave me alone!" Then they just hung up. What a joke!

Straight-up scam! This woman with an African accent claimed to be from some Smart Phone Company. I couldn't hit the end call button fast enough and blocked her. What a bloody waste of time!

Received some free phone spam, and let’s just say my response wasn’t exactly sweet. Might need to cool it with the colorful language!

This number 284560169 called me claiming I had 'won' a new phone. Can you believe that? I just flat out told them I’m happy with my trusty old phone and hung up. Spare me the nonsense!
