Anyone else been experiencing these? I migrated from Three to Vodafone [retaining my number] and ever since I have been getting these calls multiple times a week. Not sure if it's the same but there is a known scam targeting Chinese communities, where the call purpots to be the Chinese Embassy but as I don't speak the language I am unable to confirm if it is one and the same.

Number changes every time so it's a bit of a game trying to block them, currently getting Voda to investigate it.

Seems as though it has happened to a number of Three customers upon them leaving, and retaining their numbers through a PAC code request. Strange I never got them whilst I was with them though!
 
I'm on 3 and had about 4 or 5 of these around 2 weeks ago I'd say, all from different numbers, some mobile, some landline. Didn't have a bloody clue what they were on about, but found it quite entertaining.

I had completely forgotten about them as I haven't had any more since.
