Phone number ☎️ 0016075275479 👆 is reported as a persistent and sophisticated scam involving fraudulent calls claiming lottery wins of substantial sums, often around £146,000. Callers impersonate bank employees, frequently naming Barclays and individuals such as "Mark Johnson" or "John Williams," directing recipients to call international numbers for supposed legal or cheque release confirmation. The scam typically requires victims to provide personal or bank details, sometimes requesting upfront fees to claim winnings. Recipients warn that legitimate lottery organisations do not operate this way, and no legitimate bank has remittance departments as described. Many highlight the calls as unsolicited and harassing, urging caution, not to share information, and to report such calls to Action Fraud. The scam exploits lack of awareness and uses pressure tactics, often targeting elderly individuals.

6 yearsI got a call from someone saying I’d won some sort of Canadian lottery, said they were from Lynch Associates or something like that. It turned out to be a total scam - I ended up sending them money before realising. I’ve now reported it to the local cops. If anyone else gets a call like that, make sure you report it to Action Fraud on 0300 423 2040. Don’t fall for it!CanadaLynch AssociatesAction Fraud6 yearsGot a call sayin we’d won £146,000 but they wanted £495 upfront to unlock it. They asked for my bank details so the money could be in our account by next week. I told them thanks but no thanks, keep your £146k Ken Arthur, we’ll hold onto our £495 instead!Ken Arthur6 yearsI'm really curious, how on earth do these bloody scammers manage to get hold of our personal info???6 yearsJust within half an hour ago, a person named John Williams claiming to be from Barclays rang me from 020 328 90009 saying I’d won £146,000 in some lottery I don’t even remember joining. He wanted me to call this number 001607527547 to get a “NOC” or something, which apparently is needed to release the money. I told him straight up that this has all the signs of a scam, but he kept insisting it wasn’t. If he’s expecting me to call back, he might be waiting a long time. It’s definitely a con.John WilliamsBarclaysNOC6 yearsMy mum got a call from a bloke claiming to be John Williams from Barclays about winning the El Gordo Spanish lottery. He left a phone number for himself, 0203 239 0015, and asked mum to call back on 0016075275479. Luckily, mum's quite sharp with dodgy calls. I called them back from a different phone, saying I'd missed their call and wanted to know who they were. They were quite evasive, wouldn’t answer any proper questions, didn’t give a real name and just said they were some customer service but didn’t say for which company.John WilliamsBarclaysEl Gordo7 yearsMy elderly folks got a call from someone saying they had a mortgage PPI refund coming - problem is, they never took out any mortgage! The caller asked for their bank info to send some sort of electronic cheque. Sounds like a total scam to me.8 yearstotal scam! some guy rang up saying i won a lottery, but i havent even bought a ticket, let alone entered any draw. he claimed to be calling from vancouver, canada - yeah right, sounds really fishy to me. seriously, dont fall for this rubbish.VancouverCanada8 yearsI got a call from 02032867572 saying I’d won £92,465 in a lottery free draw. The guy claimed to be John from the Remington Dept at Barclays Bank. Naturally, I rang Barclays directly and there’s no dept by that name or that phone number. Then they wanted me to call 0016075275479 about the prize. If you ever get a call from 02032867572, keep chatting with them as long as you can - maybe run their phone bill up a bit! Honestly, tricksters like “John” deserve it.JohnRemingtonBarclays BankBarclays9 yearsDon’t be fooled by appearances! I ended up chatting for ages and drained all my phone credit, only to tell them I suspected it was a scam and planned on contacting the authorities once we hung up. Bit of a bummer, really, especially since I wouldn’t have minded having that £92,465!9 yearsJust got a ring from someone claiming I’d won £92,465 - sounded dodgy to me!Submit Your Own Report ((607) 527-5479)
