Oddly enough, a flurry of late‑night calls from a UK number shows up right after receiving a Vinted verification code. Most reporters describe short, robotic messages that repeat the numeric code, then hang up, prompting fears of a scam. The pattern of multiple similar numbers calling within minutes suggests an automated system trying to harvest or confirm the code. To stay safe, ignore unknown callers, block the number, and let the official Vinted app handle verification. Report the incident to your carrier and to Vinted’s support. Never share personal details or confirm payments over a surprise phone call.
Después de que me robaran el móvil, he recibido varias llamadas; no sé si están vinculadas.
After removing the Vinted app from an old phone, I got a one‑time passcode text on my new device, followed by two back‑to‑back calls. My phone flagged the number as spam!
A call came right after I asked Vinted for a verification code – the code arrived fine, but the subsequent call – and another from a different number – were phishing attempts.
A post‑Vinted call turned out to be a scam.
While I was about to buy flowers for a sick friend, a robotic voice left a code on my answering machine. It may be a coincidence since they called my landline even though I’d left my mobile number for the flowers.
Received two calls after Vinted sent a verification code.
Frode legata a Vinted.
Recorded call.
Ringed immediately after Vinted mailed a code via SMS – pretty odd.
The call had an odd tone; I answered, listened, but didn't respond.
While awaiting a Vinted code, this number rang; my phone flagged it as spam so I let it go to voicemail.
I received a call right after Vinted sent a verification text, but I didn’t answer.
Following a Vinted SMS code, I got two rapid calls, including one from this number.
Simply blocked the line without replying; it's a scam
I received a recorded message claiming to have information about a redirected HMRC letter – I hung up straight away, clearly a scam call.
The message left on my landline was muffled and unhelpful; a waste of time as usual, especially since I’m on the TPS register.
Automated call
Alle 21:25 ho ricevuto due chiamate consecutive, con una voce robotica che recitava un codice Vinted.
Tentativo di truffa evidente, ho terminato la chiamata subito.
It's junk; they kept dialing me from this line plus three others. I've blocked them now.
An automated message pretended to be from Vinted.co.uk, but the spoken code didn't match the SMS code Vinted sent.
Fraudulent.
Probably a Vinted one‑time passcode, though I'm not completely certain.
Unremarkable call, seemed automated and ended quickly.
A recorded message was left on my phone.
Pubblicità invadente, mi hanno spinto a comprare qualcosa di cui non avevo bisogno.
Got a fraudulent call – I hung up and asked them not to call back.
A call came in on Sunday morning.
Una pubblicità davvero invadente, mi ha interrotto la serata.
Ricevuta chiamata alle 21:30 due volte di seguito da Londra; conviene non rispondere.
