Just had a text supposedly from EE. Stating that they were unable to collect my payment, and that my service will be terminated. There was a contact site to give my details. I deleted it. I am not even with EE.

My guess is the ones making the calls are often slave labour earning pennies with any proceeds going to the people behind it, but yes there are some very nieve people who fall for it but its hard to see who so many still are not aware that its better to put the phone down, take a breath and check before paying someone who can hardly speak English and probly dosnt even know your name
A few weeks ago I got the call telling me I was going to be arrested if I didnt pay my tax bill immediately.
Obviously I gave my card number over after agreeing to pay £600 or so. I was stood in our yard at work and just wrote down 16 random figures on a pallet. The caller was getting very irritated as I asked her to read the numbers back to me for the fifth time. She insisted she was was putting the number down correctly and the card was being refused. I told her she wasn't hearing it as I was saying it .. I insisted she wasn't and suggested I give her another card number. After another few attempts at trying to charge my card she accused me of falsifying my details.
My suggestion was if she couldn't take good instruction when it was given, why was she in such an important position. Then I asked if her company had a training budget. I pointed out that her customer service skills could do with her attending an improvement course. She only flipped her lid and said she was appointing the ballifs to remove my property. Obviously I apologised and suggested I give her another card number, this seemed to calm her down for a while. The card number didnt work .. three attempts were made before she issued the authorisation for the ballifs to come and get me.
When I asked if she knew who her father was, she said "of course I do" .. I said .. "its a real pity he didnt practice birth control the day he sired you and do you think he would be proud of his b#@% ##@@ ##%@ of a daughter who spends her day trying to steal from honest hardworking people ".
Apparently I am in big trouble now ..... for fraud and wasting a tax officers valuable time.... whatever !
