Hi,

Has anyone else been getting calls from random people claiming that they had a missed call from your number?
Last week i had a call from someone near manchester claming that i called them and today i have had another call from an Asian lady claiming that she had a missed call from my number.
Im guessing a scammer is using my number on their VOIP to call people. Any idea on how i can fix this as i really dont want to change my number.

Regards

Dan

Not sure there’s much you can do, @dmarriott.

yeah i didnt think there was much i could do. Number masking is just far to easy now, hopefully it will stop soon.

Hi @dmarriott,

Welcome to the Community!

Sorry to hear about this and I can understand how frustrating it is as I have had the same issue in the past.

There is the option of changing your number which is chargeable. However that doesn’t guarantee that the issue won’t happen again.
