Reports consistently highlight phishing attempts via this number, targeting bank details under pretexts like phone bill discounts or warranty renewals. Callers often pose as telecom firms or warranty providers, using personal info to build trust before pressing for sensitive data. Evidence from multiple accounts shows aggressive tactics, including false claims of account issues or refunds. Hang up immediately if approached; never share banking info or verify details over unsolicited calls. Report to Action Fraud and block the number to safeguard privacy. Enable call screening on your phone for added protection against such scams. Consider registering with the Telephone Preference Service to reduce unwanted calls.

He claimed to be from BT Telecom, but halted the call when I mentioned my provider.

An eastern‑accented caller claimed I’d missed out on a 35% discount for an extended warranty renewal I don’t have. He caught me at a bad time, so I couldn’t continue.
A man with an East Asian accent pretended to represent Domestic and General, insisting I had a two‑year contract starting last January. He knew my name, address, bank and even quoted a D&G account number, likely trying to harvest banking details. I haven’t dealt with D&G for years.
A man claiming to be John from India tried to obtain my account number, sort code, DOB and more—definitely a scam, so I refused. When I asked for the time in Mumbai, he seemed bewildered.
