Phone number ☎️ 0012012557722 👆 is reported as a persistent and sophisticated share scam targeting UK residents. Callers claim to represent various companies interested in buying shares, often referencing outdated or incorrect investments. They seem to possess personal details such as names and addresses, suggesting data has been sourced from public profiles or previous records. The calls often demand sensitive information, attempt pressured sales, or request non-disclosure agreements, ultimately aiming to deceive recipients into divulging financial details or making payments. Multiple reports describe aggressive, rude behaviour, and calls made at unusual hours, with some hanging up when questioned or asked for verification. Visitors are strongly advised not to engage, avoid sharing personal information, and block the number, as it poses a clear fraud risk.

5 monthsGot a call today at 3.11pm GMT about some investments I supposedly had in Alliance and Leicester. Obviously, they didn’t know that Santander took them over and shut them down like 15 years back. Proper clueless!AllianceLeicesterSantander6 monthsGot a call about Iberdrola shares, people saying there's a hostile takeover bid happening and they need to get shareholders on board. Asked me for my email but I said no way, told them to just forward the offer through the registrar instead. Apparently, they’ll be sending a physical letter by post!Iberdrola6 monthsCall from US wanting to speak re BAT shares; asked which company this (American) woman was calling from and call was immediately cut.USBAT6 monthsKept getting calls about buying my British Airways shares, it was nonstop. Eventually told them I'd checked with Equiniti and don’t actually own any shares anymore, then they finally left me alone.British AirwaysEquiniti6 monthsJust got a call around 6.45 pm from someone with an Asian accent, trying to talk me into selling my Scottish shares that I actually sold more than 14 years back. They even knew my name and postcode! Definitely seems like a scam to me.7 monthsGot a call earlier from someone with an Asian accent who knew my name and kept going on about purchasing ITV shares. I asked for the information to be sent by email, and then they just cut the call. Definitely seemed sketchy!ITV9 monthsI've had several calls on my home phone recently, with callers asking for my husband by name, which is odd since the landline isn’t in his last name. They want to discuss some shares related to the company he supposedly works for. It all feels a bit fishy to me. I reckon they must have pulled his name and our number from some random source and then figured out where he works via LinkedIn or something online. Possibly they guessed that the company runs a Sharesave scheme for staff. (October 2025)LinkedIn9 monthsGot a call out of the blue on my UK landline about some shares in Sainsbury’s, which I never asked for.UKSainsbury9 monthsGot a call regarding Legal & General shares, was about to hang up and they rang me again right away. I’ve blocked the number now.Legal & General1 yearGot a call tonight about some National Grid shares, sounded dodgy as soon as I answered. Definitely a scam, watch out!National Grid1 yearGot a call quite late at night from someone who somehow knew my name. Even after I told her I wasn’t who she thought I was, she just wouldn’t let it go. Eventually, I had to tell her to feck off.1 yearIt was a scam, no doubt. I asked straight away who they were and what they needed, spoke pretty firmly too, but then they just hung up after a little while.1 yearNarGrid shares? Definitely looks like a total scam to me.NarGrid1 yearGot a call from 21 on May 25th and just let it ring out. Honestly, constant calls like that can get a bit scary, feels like harassment.1 yearGot a random call from a number I didn’t recognise. Feels like it might be some kind of scam?1 yearThis number rung me a few times recently, shortly after I got calls from another US number that turned out to be a share scam. I didn't pick up this time tho. Pretty sure it's just another dodgy scammer trying it on.1 yearGot a call earlier about some Legal and General shares, I told them right away they sounded dodgy and then they just ended the call.1 yearI got a call from a lady talking about Iberjola shares - said they took over Scottish Power or something. I used to have shares in Scottish Power but if I remember right, they were forced buyouts ages ago, so I don’t own any now. I didn’t stick around to hear her out, just told her straight up I knew it was dodgy and doubt she’ll ring back. Might’ve been risky if someone more trusting picked up.IberjolaScottish Power1 yearGot a call where the lady asked for me by my name. When I asked her who was speaking, she claimed it was regarding Lloyds bank shares I supposedly own. I pretended I didn’t know anything about any investments and then she said maybe I wasn’t the right person they wanted. Then, she just ended the call. Definitely a scam trying to pull a fast one.Lloyds Bank1 yearGot loads of calls but they never left a voicemail, and one even came through just before 9 in the evening. My number’s ex-directory and on the TPS list, so no chance it’s legit - must be a scam.Telephone Preference Service1 yearSomeone rang claiming to be from National Grid PLC. When I asked for their name, they just hung up on me. Definitely seemed like a scam.National Grid PLC1 yearHad a call from some woman today, sounded a bit iffy. She started by giving her name but kinda stumbled over it. Then she told me I supposedly own shares in Lloyds Bank and that she had some list with my shares on it, trying to get me to sell them. I was like, no idea what you’re on about, so I just ended the call. Blocked the number straight away.Lloyds Bank1 yearI usually ignore calls from numbers I don’t recognise, but my answering machine was on so I let it go. At about 8.30 in the evening I heard silence after my message played and then the line went dead. This is the third time they’ve called around this time, always pretty late at night.1 yearGot a call from some woman overseas about BP shares who wanted to chat with my dad - trouble is, he died six years ago!BP1 yearI just left it ringing, didn't pick up.1 yearGot a call from a woman talking about some shares, but as soon as I asked for more info, the line just dropped. Definitely a scam!1 yearGot one of those Lloyds share scams the other day. Some woman called me with a weird foreign accent, trying to use my name. I just told her to get in touch with my stockbroker and then she ended the call straight away. Bit annoying! 😞Lloyd ' s1 yearThey called me by name, but the amount of shares they claimed I owned was way off. I could tell it was dodgy, so I just told them to leave me alone.1 yearGot called again just a couple days after the first time. They didn't leave any voicemail or anything. From what I’ve read here, it looks like this number's probably some sort of scam, so I’d be careful with it.1 yearNo voicemail or anything. Definitely a scam.2 yearsThought at first it might be legit, but something didn't feel right - turns out it was a massive scam, glad I picked up on it in time.2 yearsThey said they were based in New York and somehow had my name and the details about the shares I owned. Pretty strange.New York2 yearsGot a ring from someone named Sylvia asking me about my shares in Centrica. She told me this story about a client wanting to take over and needing small investors like me to hand over shares. I told her I reckoned it sounded dodgy, a bit unprofessional the way she spoke. She then said they'd follow up with a letter or something.SylviaCentrica2 yearsWatch out, got called by someone pretending to be from an investment firm. Total scam, don't fall for it!2 yearsGot a call from someone saying their firm wanted to purchase Lloyds bank shares before a takeover. They rang me again straight away, which felt really pushy and annoying!Lloyds Bank2 yearsGot a phone call saying Marks & Spencer was about to be bought out and they'd buy my shares before prices fell. I never told anyone I owned shares though, so how did they find out? Ended up hanging up straight away.Marks & Spencer2 yearsGot a call at 1:38 pm but just didn’t pick up. There wasn’t any message left on my voicemail either. Sounds like a dodgy scammer just trying to hassle people.2 yearsGot a call from someone trying to buy my share stocks in some hostile takeover thing. They were offering way more than it’s worth - sounded fishy to me. Definitely a share scam.2 yearsDefinitely a scam. Got a call a few days ago from a different number but same story about buying electricity shares. The woman on the line seemed like the same person, just using a fake name. Feels like they were trying to trick me into giving out personal details.2 yearsGot a call from this number earlier today. I usually ignore calls from numbers I don’t recognise. They didn’t leave any voicemail or anything.2 yearsReceived a call about some Lloyds Shares offer but I wasn’t interested, so I told them and they just ended the call.Lloyds Shares2 yearsThis bloke clearly tried a scam about investment shares. As soon as I told him we don't discuss money stuff over the phone, I just ended the call straight away.2 yearssomeone called about buying shares in Lloyds and asked me to sign an NDA first. bit suspicious if you ask me.Lloyds2 yearsGot a call out of the blue and said I’d report them to the fraud squad, and they ended the call almost instantly. Total SCAMMERS!! Number’s blocked now.2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to help me invest in UK stocks, but it felt totally dodgy. Definitely a scam, watch out!UK2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be about my shares, sounded dodgy. Best thing is to just hang up and block them, don’t waste your time chatting with these scammers.2 yearsThis person tried to get me to offload my Lloyds shares at some dodgy price that would have benefited them, not me. Honestly, proper scammers who seem to have a hold of shareholder lists from loads of different companies just hoping for a quick win. The woman on the call was talking complete rubbish. Seriously, don’t even bother with these fraudsters - they'll swindle all your shares and leave you with nothing. Just block the number and move on.Lloyds2 yearsAt about 7:06 this evening, I got a call from this number. I usually don’t pick up if it’s someone I’m not familiar with. It went straight to voicemail but nobody said anything. So, I’ve decided to block the number now.2 yearsI got a call from a woman named Rachel claiming to be from New York. She said she wanted to buy some bonus or incentive shares I supposedly had in M&S because the company was being bought out. She even had my name and address and offered to send over a non-disclosure agreement by email. It felt off, so I did some digging and found info on this website about similar scams. Looks like they drag it out to make you trust them, then eventually want your bank details to "transfer" money. Glad I caught on before it went any further.RachelNew YorkM & S2 yearsTwice I got calls from a very impolite woman asking after me by name. When I told her I was also trying to find him, she started swearing at me.2 yearsI got a call about buying my National Grid shares, but when I said no, they just hung up on me straight away. Now I'm a bit uneasy about what info they might already have about me.National Grid2 yearsGot a call about buying shares because of some takeover offer for a company I used to own shares in. Seemed like a total scam so I just hung up straight away.2 yearsGot a call from GBX telling me there’s a hostile takeover happening at Lloyd’s. They wanted me to part with my shares for anything from £8 up to £17 each. Absolute joke considering they were only worth about 50p earlier today.GBXLloyd ' s2 yearsGot a call from someone called Spacey Reid claiming a client wanted to buy my Virgin Money shares. It sounded dodgy straight away, especially when they then asked if I had any Northern Rock shares too. Definitely felt like a scam to me.Spacey ReidVirgin MoneyNorthern Rock2 yearsMy missus picked up this number and it seemed dodgy to me, cause the person was asking about purchasing any shares from Virgin or Northern Rock for some American investor. We had no interest and just told them to speak to The Nationwide Building Society directly.VirginNorthernRockNationwide Building Society2 yearsGot a call this evening from someone claiming to be in the USA, trying to buy shares from me. What freaked me out a bit was that they already knew my name, which felt quite odd. Just a heads up to watch out for this.States2 yearsSomeone rang me up with a unsure "good evening" and asked if Mrs Murial Haslam was around. I replied she wasn’t, then they checked if I was Mr Haslam. I told them he’s unfortunately passed away. They seemed a bit thrown and then switched from saying good afternoon to good evening again. This number used to belong to a Haslam, but that was over a decade ago. Looks like they’re trying an old scam using outdated info. I was half expecting some kind of con to come next, but it never did.Murial HaslamHaslam2 yearsGot a call advising me to sell my shares for a big profit. The whole thing was really unclear. I just figured it was a scam and ignored it.2 yearsGot a call from supposed ‘advisors’ in New York saying a buyer’s interested in my shares. They emailed me a non-disclosure agreement first, but then started asking for money. Their website looked quite professional but showed ‘not secure’ in the browser, which made me suspicious it’s all a scam.New York2 yearsNo idea who it was, but the call ended as soon as my answerphone kicked in. They just hung up.Submit Your Own Report ((201) 255-7722)
