In the space of two hours today three calls came through on the house phone and one theme in common and yet again it is the one and only eir. This is nothing new when it comes to scams or eir in general as they have a history of this over the last few years. On speaking to one of the numbers below they claimed to be from eir and wanted to fix a technical error. Sadly it was on the landline so I could not record as I normally do with such calls on mobile.

I am not a customer of eir but the scammers hang themselves up almost immediately and keep saying eircom. The first call was a female with a Pakistan accent and she hung up when questioned, then two calls came later on and same thing but hung up so this could be also a cost trap too as well as trying to scam your money. This comes in light of a recent cost trap call coming from France,these boys must be getting their xmas monies ready..

Numbers to note..

00353766701368 – 0035376670148 – 00353766705525- 0035356953749 The first two seem to originate in Argentina and the latter is in Germany.

As per norm ignore these and report and block the said numbers above or anything that looks like them.One call a day is enough but this is taking the piss..
