think its a scam, couple of rings to my mobile, and then left a missed call, happened a few weeks ago, and just happened again.
Ive not called back as some of the 08719 numbers come up as premium rates when searched on Google.
Anybody else had it??

I had one from 08719511450 on the weekend that did the same thing, didnt ring them back though
all 0871 numbers are either 6p or 10p a minute

I kept getting calls from a number like that, turned out to be 1st direct or some shower acting on the behalf of halifax wanting to know if I wanted accident insurance
