Ever wondered why that unsolicited call feels off? Reports consistently flag this number as a scam operation, where callers peddle fake wins like Tesco or Amazon vouchers, free legal documents, or even cars from competitions you never entered. They might already know your details to seem legit, but it's a ploy to extract bank info or push dodgy links. One chap cleverly messed with a persistent caller, switching from prize to legal docs—brilliant, but risky. Always block and report to Action Fraud or text 7726 for calls. Don't engage; hang up immediately to avoid phishing traps. Stay vigilant—scams evolve, but your caution keeps you safe.
I was informed I was in a queue and would be connected to the next available representative, but they hung up instead.
Apparently, I had won something related to legal documents, but I knew I hadn't entered any competition, so I've blocked and deleted the number.

It's high time that this scam number was removed from service. To combat such fraudulent activities, it's essential to report them to the relevant authorities, including the government and OfCom, using the system they have set up in conjunction with the police. The National Cyber Security Centre website provides detailed instructions on how to do this, specifically in the 'phishing' section: https://www.ncsc.gov.uk/collection/phishing-scams. Essentially, you can text call details to 7726, and if necessary, confirm your report. Additionally, forwarding texts to 7726 and emailing a screenshot or a copy of the message to the designated address can be helpful.

They informed me I'd won a contest I never entered. Clearly a scam.
SCAM 😂 Oh my goodness, these calls are so persistent, happening at the same time every day this week. I finally answered today (in a mood for it), and was told I had won a prize that either I or my children had entered. When I kept insisting it was a SCAM, he quickly altered his tone, insisting I listen because I had won. He became frustrated as I kept repeating SCAM, then changed the subject to LEGAL DOCUMENTS that I needed to sort out. I asked him to clarify which it was since he initially said I had won a prize… it was the best 5 minutes of my life watching him get flustered before he hung up 😂😂
My phone says this number is a suspected scam
Claimed I'd won an Amazon voucher, then tried to sell me something before I hung up.
This is a blatant scam. They claimed I won a Tesco voucher and had my personal details. They wanted me to click a link and enter my bank information, which I obviously refused. Don't be deceived by their politeness.
This is a scam, the caller claimed to be from a life insurance company, which was not relevant to me
Missed a call from this number, but upon checking, it's flagged as a known scam number.
