Phone number ☎️ 001516387036 👆 is reported as a persistent scam targeting elderly individuals with automated calls warning of a £600 Visa transaction. Callers use a robotic female voice urging recipients to press 1 to speak to an agent, which actually verifies the number for further exploitation. Despite call-blocking services, the scammers use varying numbers to avoid detection. Many people, particularly the elderly, find these calls distressing and frightening. Pressing 1 generally confirms your number for sale to other scammers, intensifying spam. The consensus strongly advises ignoring such calls entirely and not interacting with any prompts. Efforts by telecom providers to curb these calls have limited success, and users emphasise the need for more robust action from authorities to combat this ongoing problem.
Reports on phone number 001516387036
7 yearsToday, I got a call warning that £600 was about to be taken from the bank. My 90-year-old dad was absolutely scared stiff. Honestly, these people should all be locked up.7 yearsSo, the other day, I kinda "confessed" to hitting 1 on a weird call, and it got me curious. I checked out some videos on YouTube about different scam calls, and I reckon it was a Number Verification Scam. By pressing 1, the scammers managed to confirm my phone number. Now, I guess my number’s going to be lumped together with loads of others and flogged off. Pretty sneaky if you ask me.YouTube7 yearsGot a call from some robotic sounding woman saying there was an emergency cause £600 had been charged on my Visa card. She told me to press 1 to speak with their admin team. Weird thing is, I got a very similar message yesterday but from a totally different number.7 yearsIt's kind of odd because I use BT Call Protect, and when I try to add the previous caller's number, the BT system shows it as 01161729969. But if I check with 1471, it tells me the number is 001516387036. Quite confusing, if you ask me.BT7 yearsSo far, my mum has received four calls altogether. She's quite old now.7 yearsMy mum's older and they rang her up two times, telling her £600 was going to be taken from her bank. It really shook her up. Proper low life behaviour.7 yearsI reckon BT attempt to block these annoying calls, but they just ring you from a new number each time. Reporting the number to your phone provider might help, but honestly, it’s not as simple as everyone makes out. They do try, but these scammers are always one step ahead.BT7 yearsMy 93 year old mum got two phone calls today saying £600 was taken from her bank account. It really frightened her and she even tried calling the number back. Poor lady, she was quite shaken up by the whole thing.7 yearsJust got a call from 001516387036 saying there’s a £600 charge on your Visa, said it was urgent and to press 1 to sort it out. Be careful, sounds scammy to me.7 yearsMy elderly mum got a call from this number and it really frightened her. Luckily, she was clever enough to see through it and knew it was a scam. It’s just awful that stuff like this is still happening.7 yearsI hit 1 when they asked, does that mean something bad?7 yearsThis call was just like all the others people have mentioned. Got a random number ring me, then when I answered it was nothing but silence at the other end. Felt like a robot or some auto dialler messing about. Definitely not a genuine call, just one of those annoying ones.7 yearsTotal rip off, best to ignore it. Honestly, the officials need to step up and crack down on these scammers once and for all.7 yearsThey rang me up thrice today! Seriously, don’t trust a thing they say, it’s all a scam.7 yearsGot two calls from this number today and it was the same stuff as people mentioned before.7 yearsGot three calls saying there was a suspicious purchase on our debit card, which we don’t even have. They kept telling us to press 1, definitely don’t do that! Honestly, with how much we shell out to BT and others, you'd think they’d sort this kind of thing out by now.BT7 yearsAbout an hour back I got a call and I ended up pressing 1 on my phone - does anyone know what that might mean or what comes next?7 yearsI've had three calls now from this number claiming there's an issue with a transaction. The weird thing is, I don't even have an account like that. Quite suspicious if you ask me.7 yearsGot called multiple times about some issue with a transaction, but the account they mentioned isn’t even real. Weird, right?7 yearsI got a call from some automated voice saying something about £600 on my Visa card, I just let it ring off. Then later, a different auto-call came from 001619735080 trying the same scam. Proper low-life stuff.Visa7 yearsI get calls from these pesky scammers all the time! Seriously, why haven't the cops caught them and put a stop to this yet? It's about time they got locked away for good.7 yearsGot a call tellin me to press 1, looked dodgy to me so I ignored it. Could be a scam, so watch out and don’t press anything!7 yearsGot two calls this morning, first one showed up as no caller ID, then the second came from this number. They said there were some suspicious charges on my card. Something about Visa Secure or whatever. Pretty fishy if you ask me.Visa7 yearsGot three calls from this number today, each time they were trying to get me to press 1. Definitely a scam.7 yearsDidn't pick up when they called twice today, the number was 001516387036.7 yearsI got three calls in a row telling me to press 1, definitely a scam.7 yearsGot two calls today from this number. Heard that robotic female voice telling me there’s been a £600 internet purchase, and if it wasn’t me, press 1. Yeah right, as if I’d fall for that!7 yearsI got a call from a woman’s voice saying, “this is an emergency call.” I just ended it right away.7 yearsSomeone called me claiming to be from Visa but it was clearly a scam. Don’t trust these calls!7 yearsBeware of this scam! I got a call claiming there was a £600 charge on my Visa, then it told me to press 1 to talk to someone. Don’t fall for it!7 yearsGot a call from some dodgy automated message saying it was from “Visa Secure” about a supposed £600 transaction. They told me to press a button to get in touch - yeah right.

Seemed a bit dodgy to me.Visa7 yearsI got two calls today from different numbers, both had an automated voice saying something about "isa secure" or some message like that.
