00131

Total rip off!

I got a call from someone claiming to be O2, my phone company, saying they'd give me a discount if I shared my email, which they already have on file. When I asked how much I’d actually save or what the new price would be, she couldn’t or wouldn’t tell me. So, I just ended the call.

I've been receiving persistent messages from the number 00131### on WhatsApp, and it's quite bothersome.

I’ve had a right bother with the number 00131### and +###; they’ve managed to take control of my account. At this moment, my WhatsApp is completely out of action.

I’ve just had a rather peculiar voicemail from 00131###..... claiming that I've bagged £###,### in some competition or other! They urged me to call this number to chat with their accounts team to sort out my winnings. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

I received a call on my landline from the number 00131### on the date of January ###th at ###.###. The caller, who struggled quite a bit with his English, actually asked for me by name and claimed to be representing Microsoft. I suspect he might be up to no good, especially since my computer faced a hacking incident back on January ###, 2023. It’s all rather suspicious, if you ask me.

### Nuisance Calls

I received a voicemail informing me that I had nabbed the second prize of £###,###.###. The strange thing is, I haven’t entered any competition at all! They provided this number to ring back: ###131### !!!

I received a notification that my Visa card had been charged for purchases on Amazon and eBay amounting to £###. I've chosen to disregard it and have already filed a report with BT.

Just received a rather concerning automated call claiming to be from the fraud department. It was a bit of a muddle, really-something about two transactions pending, one for £### and another for £###. The message was so garbled that I could barely catch it all. They urged me to press 1 for customer service or 2 to approve the transactions. Then, just like that, the call ended abruptly. Quite suspicious if you ask me!

When I declined to reveal my identity until I had some idea of who they were, I was met with a rather rude response - something along the lines of “get lost”. Quite distressing, to say the least!

Avoid picking up numbers you don’t recognise, like SCAM-0013156069027,0013 - it’s total rubbish! Best just ignore those random calls!

If you check the code 00131, it becomes obvious that 0013157498323 is just a scam, don't waste your time!

I received a call earlier today from someone claiming to be from Amazon's customer service regarding a transaction on my account for £###, which I can assure you, is not mine - the reference number was 00131###. After a bit of back and forth, I finally managed to get through to Amazon, who confirmed categorically that they do not make phone calls to customers. It's quite alarming how many times these callers have tried to reach me - three times this week alone! The first call came bright and early on Tuesday at 6.###, then I was contacted again later the same day, and yet another call this morning. They are certainly not shy about trying!

Received a call from 00131###, but as soon as I picked up, the line went silent. Quite odd, really.

I received a rather curious call from this number today. The chap on the other end spoke with a pronounced Asian accent. I decided to play the naïve one and led him on for a bit; I've encountered these sorts of calls before! “Ah, Madam,” he purred. He claimed to be from Microsoft, insisting that someone had been tampering with my computer. “You need to switch it on right away!” he urged. “No, I won’t, thank you very much,” I replied. “And why should I?” he probed, “Haven’t you checked your notifications?” I retorted that I was quite occupied at the moment, as I had a policeman in my house handling a different issue! He promptly made himself scarce, but not before threatening to ring me each morning at 6 o'clock. Bring it on, I thought! I'm usually awake by 5 anyway, and I’ll be ready with my trusty whistle for when that call comes through!

I received a rather dodgy call from 00131### recently. The person on the line claimed to be affiliated with Amazon, stating that my account had been used to purchase an Apple phone from the States. I promptly informed them that I hadn't made such a transaction and that I would be notifying both my bank and the police about the matter. At that point, they abruptly ended the call. The amount in question was a staggering ### pounds. Quite alarming, to say the least!

Received a call that was completely silent and ended up hanging up after about seven seconds.

I've been inundated with calls from Amazon using this number. I keep hanging up, but they're back at it again a few days later. It’s quite frustrating, to say the least!

I received a call earlier that claimed to be from BT's call blocking service. It quickly turned suspicious, as just a couple of minutes in, the caller started probing for my banking information-definitely a dodgy phishing attempt!

As an elderly person, I find these incessant calls quite distressing. I've taken to ignoring all incoming calls and doing a bit of sleuthing before deciding whether to return any of them.

Got a call from 0013121403445 but didn’t pick up, it just went straight to voicemail. There was no message, only some weird crackling sounds. Saw the reviews on here and decided to block the number.

Claimed to be from BT and warned me they’d disconnect my internet service. I opted to hang up on them instead.

Received a couple of calls today featuring a rather similar pre-recorded message about money and card transfers, urging me to press either 1 or 2. The numbers were as follows: 1. 00131### 2. 00131###

I've been getting calls from 00131, varying numbers, three times yesterday and once already today. I'm just not picking up the phone-what a nuisance! Cheers, Eileen.

In the past couple of days, I've received three phone calls from these digits. It's becoming a right nuisance, so I’m planning to give these numbers the boot. 00131###, 00131###, 00131### Cheers, Julie!

Received a call claiming to be from Amazon, stating that I had an outstanding balance. They instructed me to press 1 for more information. I decided to hang up instead.

I received a call from this number, purporting to be from Amazon Prime, but I can assure you it’s nothing but a scam. They rang me again, but I chose not to pick up the phone that time. It's best to be cautious!

It’s rather frustrating how relentless they are! I keep receiving calls from this lengthy number, and the last few digits seem to change each time. But I never pick up for unfamiliar numbers, so really, they’re just spinning their wheels, aren't they? Total scam!

Fraudulent Canadian lottery scheme

I've received three calls today from someone purporting to be from Amazon Prime.

I've noticed that numerous reports have come in about the 00131 numbers. The last four digits seem to change constantly, which is incredibly frustrating! It’s happening multiple times each day, and it’s really getting on my nerves.

What a bother this Amazon scam is - absolutely infuriating!

I receive calls from this number a couple of times daily. Every time, I end up asking them if their folks take pride in their scamming ways. And just like that, the line goes dead.

Received a message purporting to be from Amazon Prime, claiming that my account has been charged for renewal. It’s clearly a con!

These 00131 numbers keep popping up with different digits after them and I’m fed up. No one ever talks when I pick up. Honestly, I wish they’d stop bothering me entirely!

I receive a fair few questionable phone calls, and this one’s certainly among them.

Got a call from 00131ete, likely a scam. Left a message on my answerphone. Better not to pick up or reply!

Received a call earlier today, but they didn't bother to leave any sort of message.

I've been receiving calls from this number for the past couple of days: 00131### and 00131###. Quite annoying, if you ask me!

I don’t really know what’s going on but I get calls from them about three times a day, saying they’ve taken £359 from my bank, which they haven’t obviously. I just end up hanging up. My elderly mum isn’t doing too great, and sometimes I just can’t bring myself to pick up, but then I worry it might be something serious about her. This really isn’t on, they even call my mobile! Please someone do something about these pests.

I've had three calls from this number today, but I chose not to pick up, so I can’t really provide any details about what they wanted.

So I called back 0013127012136 and the moment I said a word, the person just hung up. If scammers are gonna bother with me, they might as well talk instead of being so quick to drop the call!

I'm continually being bombarded with automated calls regarding the renewal of my Amazon Prime membership. It's becoming rather annoying!

I've tried calling this landline several times, but there's never anyone there when I pick up. They never seem to leave a message on the answering machine either! Quite peculiar, if you ask me.

Received a call at ### in the morning. When I answered and hit 0, I was greeted with, "How may I assist you?" I simply said, "I've no idea - you called me!" before ending the call.

I received a call from this number around 7 in the evening. I didn't pick up, but then I came across your site and found some useful information. I've now added this number to my block list. Cheers for your help!

I didn’t pick up or leave any voicemail. When I checked the number, it seems to be linked to some kind of scam.

Pretending to be from Amazon, they are!

Beware of a fraudulent call pretending to be from Amazon, aiming to con you out of your money. It's best not to return their call or press any buttons, as they profit from the callback fees. Stay vigilant!

Every time I pick up the phone, I'm greeted by a pre-recorded voice yammering on about my supposed account. I hardly give it a moment's attention, especially since I haven't had anything to do with them for ages, especially after they slapped me with charges for Prime delivery, which I never authorised! Indeed, they’re quite notorious for passing around phone numbers. Whenever I receive one of those calls claiming there's an issue with my computer, I simply say it’s a pity, as I ditched that old thing yonks ago (though in reality, I haven’t).

I've been receiving a lot of calls from this particular number.

I keep getting these pesky automated calls, twice a month-one at a ridiculous hour in the early morning and another in the late afternoon. They're always droning on about Amazon Prime. What's more, all the numbers seem to begin with 00131, and then there's a string of random digits following that. It's such an annoyance!

I've received five calls from this 00131 number, and oddly enough, the remaining digits differ with each call. They always bypass leaving a message on my answering machine. Quite frustrating, really!

This number keeps ringing but always ends up going to my voicemail without a word left behind. I'm convinced it's a scam.

Received three separate calls today, all starting with the prefix 00131. I didn’t bother answering any of them and promptly added them to my blocked list.

I keep receiving calls from those pesky 00131 numbers claiming there's an iPhone on its way to me and that my Amazon account has been settled! They even ask if I wish to cancel my account. The truth is, I’ve never had an account with Amazon, so I don’t respond to these fraudulent calls. It’s alarming how they utilise various numbers, even mobile ones, to send out these automated messages. We must all stay vigilant against such scams!

I received a call from someone purporting to be from Amazon Prime, and they were rather threatening about charging me for a subscription.

Received a call from Canada claiming to be affiliated with Amazon.

This particular number has been ringing me every single day without fail. Whenever I manage to block it, they simply alter a few digits and try again. The very first time I picked up, it turned out to be a dodgy scam claiming to be from Amazon, stating I’d supposedly bought an item for £###n and that I either had to request a refund or take some other action. They even had my name, which was a bit alarming. I promptly contacted Amazon to alert them about the situation.

Received a call purporting to be from Amazon regarding some sort of annual subscription. Best to steer clear of this one! Don't share any personal info with them-just hang up!

I've been absolutely inundated with calls from this number! I must have received at least three calls just today alone. It's becoming incredibly frustrating and honestly, it's driving me quite insane!

Received a call purporting to be from Amazon Prime, but it’s glaringly clear it's a scam, especially since I don’t even have an Amazon Prime account. Avoid!

I received a call from this number just now, but it disconnected as soon as I picked up. Quite puzzling!

I didn't know the number so I just let it go to voicemail. As I expected, no one said a word before they just dropped the call. Weird!

I received a missed call from this number earlier today. It’s unfamiliar to me, and I certainly don’t plan on returning the call. I've glanced through the comments left by others regarding this number, and I appreciate all the insights shared! Cheers to everyone for the heads-up!

I seem to be receiving quite a few calls from this number, but they’re always silent. Quite perplexing, really!

The initial caller appeared to be an Indian woman. The second one, however, spoke with a rather posh British accent. She expressed her gratitude for my supposed membership in Amazon Prime, which I found rather puzzling since I haven't signed up for it at all. The conversation revolved around the subject of Amazon Prime, and she mentioned that I would need to pay £### each month. Just to clarify, I do not have Amazon Prime.
