This number called me, an Asian lady was pretending to be from 3, when I asked what does she want and where she got my number from she hung up, I think it's part of a scam from previous experience I had. I blocked the number

Caller has a British accent and sounded convincing.. until I asked a question and the response was "AI underscore AI response". I said, "okay" and caller responded with "Is that okay? Please confirm you date of birth". I said something about winning the lottery and caller responded with "AI underscore AI response". It didn't know how to answer to unexpected questions. It's funny but at the same time scary af. be careful out there!

Says they are from first lotto and I had won ten free entries into the euro lottery? Not entered a competition Sounds Like it was a bot talking and when I asked questions they said line was bad and they’d call back. Guess what never heard again!! Scary bit was they knew my name/contact details.
