Phone number ☎️ 0016313090427 👆 is reported as a persistent investment scam targeting UK shareholders, with callers claiming to represent companies interested in buying shares at inflated prices. Callers often appear well-spoken, frequently with an Asian accent, and sometimes provide details about supposed holdings in companies like BT, Tesco, Scottish Power, and others. They exploit personal information, sometimes even referring to deceased relatives, aiming to extract financial or sensitive data. The number originates from the US but uses spoofed or untraceable numbers, making blocking ineffective. Victims are strongly advised not to engage or share any information, to report calls via the official police fraud reporting system, and to contact their MP to push for stronger measures against such scams. Vigilance and prompt reporting are essential in combating these fraudulent activities.
Reports on phone number 0016313090427
4 yearsHad a call from a bloke asking for my husband, who sadly passed away about eight years back. He claimed he was working with a firm looking to buy out some shares to get majority control of the company and said they'd pay around £25-35 per share. Sounds like a total rip-off to me!4 yearsGot a call where they knew my name and said they were calling from Lloyds Banking Group. I guess they must have got my name from a shareholder list since I own just a single share. Either way, I’m not interested in dealing with them at all.Lloyds Banking Group4 yearsGot a call from +001 631 309 0427 about selling ITV shares, I just ended the call straight away.ITV4 yearsSomeone gave me a ring claiming to be from BT, talking about shares or something like that.BT4 yearsHad a few calls over the last week from different people all chatting about BT shares. Pretty clear it's a scam, no doubt about it.BT4 yearsGot a call from a woman with an American accent asking about some ITV shares, saying we supposedly had them and that she had a buyer interested. I told her we don’t own any ITV shares and she ended the call. Definitely sounded like a scam.ITV4 yearsGot a call from a polite guy with an Asian accent, talking to my husband about BAT shares. He said a client already owns 51% of the company and wants to buy the rest, the 49%. Claimed we could get £40 to £50 per share if we sold. He wanted to email a Non-Disclosure Agreement but we asked for it by post. Then he said they couldn’t do that because the purchase details might be leaked! Well, that info’s obviously out now. Feels like a total scam. Number was 0016313090427.BAT4 yearsBeen getting calls from 00161310904027 like twice every day, but every time I try to pick up, no ones there. Weird.4 yearsI keep getting calls every day from 0016313090427. It's really annoying and feels like harassment. I’m not picking up anymore and have been trying to block the number.4 yearsGot a call from a man saying he was ‘Bob’ about my husband’s shares with Lloyds Bank. He had a very polite tone but kept pushing for info, which felt really dodgy. He was an Asian guy and sounded quite professional, but I wasn’t having it. Asked for stuff like financial info - didn’t trust it one bit.BobLloyds Bank4 yearsGot a call from a lady who sounded like she might be Asian but spoke with an American accent. She wanted to talk to my mum, so I said she passed away like 18 years ago. She claimed she was authorised to buy my mum’s BT shares, saying they would automatically pass to me under UK law, which isn’t true. I told her I no longer had any shares and then just hung up. Funny thing is, my mum’s shares were kept in a nominee account, so how on earth did she have my mum’s name and phone number? Totally felt like a scam to try and fish for my financial info.UK4 yearsThey’re asking if we want to sell our BT shares, but how would they even know if we actually own any? Bit strange, really.BT4 yearsSomeone rang me up, asking loads about stock buys in BAT. Seemed proper keen on the whole share acquisition stuff, like they really wanted the lowdown on what's going on with BAT shares. Bit random, but guess people have their reasons for calling!4 yearsGot a call earlier from a number asking loads about buying bat shares. Didn't really know what to say, seemed a bit fishy if you ask me. Probably some kind of sales pitch or scam. Better be careful with these types of calls!4 yearsJust got a call from this number about 30 minutes back, asking if I wanted to sell some shares I supposedly own. How on earth do they have that info? From now on, I'm just ignoring any calls starting with 001. Proper annoyance. The number was 0016313090427. Honestly, such a nuisance.4 yearsTwo different times, I got calls about stocks. Each time, I said I didn’t recognise the person they were asking about and just hung up straight away.4 yearsHad this random number keep calling me non stop, they wouldn’t give up and just rang over and over.4 yearsGot a call from 0016313090427 saying something about BT shares and a takeover offer. They said they were with BUMB FINANCIAL, but felt a bit dodgy to me.BUMB FINANCIAL4 yearsA caller claiming to be from Telefonica Holdings asked for my wife, even though she passed away over 16 years ago! It was quite strange and honestly a bit unsettling.Telefonica Holdings4 yearsSomeone rang asking for me using just my first name and another name, but they didn’t use my surname or full name. I told them I wasn’t familiar with anyone by that name.4 yearsSo this number’s from New York, apparently!! My phone only allows calls from numbers I’ve approved, so this one never makes it through, though it’s tried ringing the last couple of days. Honestly, I enjoy knowing my phone is just throwing their calls away while I’m none the wiser. I suppose I could check my call logs to see which dodgy callers are wasting their time now. Absolute SCAMMERS! Just block the number, seriously.New York4 yearsAnother dodgy call trying to scam me!4 yearsThe caller said it was regarding an account with Alliance and Leicester.AllianceLeicester4 yearsGot three calls in a single day, none of them left an answer. Really annoying!4 yearsSome bloke called Brian Adams rang me, said he wanted to buy my Tesco shares. I have no clue how he found out I own any, maybe Tesco's customer info got hacked or something. Could be legit, but I'm definitely suspicious.Brian AdamsTesco4 yearsGot info about who owns Tesco shares and then rang me up saying they’re from a group wanting to make a buyout offer. They’ve phoned several times now.Tesco4 yearsI got three calls from 16313090427 tonight. A woman with an Asian accent answered, saying stuff about Scottish Power shares and acquisitions, and she even knew my name. It sounded dodgy, so I just ended the call. After having a look on here, I’m pretty certain it’s a scam, so I’ve blocked the number now.Scottish Power4 yearsMy mum, who’s a widow, was called by 0016313090427 saying that my dad owned shares in BT and she should be getting a dividend. Seems a bit dodgy to me.BT4 yearsGot a call about some Scottish Power shares or something like that, apparently they bought out some firm. The person said that their clients already hold half the shares and now want to buy more, about ten percent extra or so. They promised to send details on how I could get in on this supposed share opportunity. I stopped listening once it became clear there might be some hidden fees or costs involved. Sounded dodgy to me.Scottish Power4 yearsGot a call from a bloke called Michael, sounded Asian. Was chatting about shares in Scottish Power and some takeover deal or something. I think I used to own shares in Scottish Power but got rid of them ages ago. Another time, with a number that was blocked as well.MichaelScottish Power4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from the IRS, saying I hadn’t paid my income tax. They sounded Asian and then started threatening that they’d come round to my house. Proper panic moment.IRS4 yearsThere was this very strong Indian accent lady who called me, and honestly, I struggled to catch what she was saying. But she kept talking about shares and something about my shareholding. I told her I wasn’t interested and that I would sort things out with my stockbroker. After that, I just blocked the number.4 yearsGot a call from someone speaking with an Asian accent, telling me about some Scottish Power shares. They mentioned other stocks too, but told me those are blocked on my mobile. Now, they’re trying again using my landline, which seems a bit dodgy if you ask me. Definitely feels like suspicious business!Scottish Power4 yearsA bloke with an Asian accent called us the following day, saying he wanted to purchase some shares that we actually don’t have any longer. He claimed he was ringing from New York. I told him to send it over in writing. Then he asked for our email to send some documents we had to fill out within seven hours.New York4 yearsSome bloke rang me, said his name's Bob Jenkins (honestly!) and claimed he worked for a client wanting to buy my Tesco shares at some crazy high price. He even knew my name. I told him I wasn’t interested cos it sounded dodgy. This is clearly a scam, and it’s really risky for folks who are struggling and need cash quick!!!Bob JenkinsTesco4 yearsGot a call from the US, this was the second time, and the person had a really thick Asian accent. Kept going on about shares or something. I told them to just send an email instead and then hung up. Definitely sounds like a scam to me.4 yearsI was tryin’ to purchase some Tesco shares but turns out I don’t own any at all.Tesco4 yearsTried ringing about buying Tesco shares, but I actually don’t own any.Tesco4 yearsGot a call from a guy who sounded Asian and actually knew my name. He started talking about some Scottish Power shares I supposedly had before. Then he brought up Vodafone, but I had no clue what he meant. I told him I don’t own any shares like that now and ended the call. Afterwards, I blocked the number. Definitely felt like a scam to me.Scottish PowerVodafone4 yearsThis number 16313090427 keeps ringing me over and over, but they never leave a message, just some kind of recorded tune on the other end. Really annoying!4 yearsGot a call from 0016313090427, the bloke sounded Asian but the number's from the US. He was asking if the previous owner of this number was about. Told him that the number’s not in use by anyone now and he just hung up. Checked the comments here and it might be one of those share scams. Interesting to see what others have said!4 yearsUnknown number called me but didn’t leave any message.4 yearsGot a call from someone with an Asian accent asking about shares that I've never had.4 yearsGot a call from a number in the US, the bloke spoke with a thick Asian accent. He kept going on about some national grid shares. I told him I had absolutely no clue what he was yammering about and just ended the call. They rang straight back and even dropped my name and address. I told them to send a letter instead and then hung up.AmericaNational Grid4 yearsI got a call from someone named Justin who was talking about buying shares for a hostile takeover. He said he’d send me some info but told me not to share it with anyone, not even my own lawyer. Was a bit fishy if you ask me.Justin4 yearsThis number rings a couple of times every week but I just ignore it now. It goes straight to voicemail and there’s never any message left. Feels like a dodgy scam to me. Watch out!4 yearsThis number 0016313090427 is from the States and is definitely some kind of financial scam. Watch out for it!USA5 yearsThis number has been calling non-stop for the past few days.5 yearsGot a call from someone called Justin Lee about buying shares in Walgreen Boots Alliance. He asked for my email to send some non-disclosure stuff. I didn’t give any details and he just ended the call.Justin LeeWalgreens Boots Alliance5 yearsGot a call listed as "International," let it ring but didn’t pick up, no voicemail or anything. After reading some stuff here, I’ve just blocked the number. Cheers for the heads-up!International5 yearsI got a call from someone running a boiler room scam.

He wanted me to offload some shares I supposedly had. Smelled fishy to me, like one of those 'Boiler Room' or 'Shares Bond' scams the FCA warns about. Definitely don’t give these lot any of your details.Justin LeePacific Financial ServicesFCA5 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from a firm interested in purchasing shares in National Grid. They provided an email address and requested that I send over some documents.

I decided to let it go to voicemail, and once I had the chance, I checked straight away, but there was no message left behind.5 yearsGot a call from a US number (+1) today, and they were all about "your National Grid shares" or something like that. Didn't stay on the line to find out what they were really after, just hung up quick. Sounds dodgy to me!StatesNational Grid5 yearsThis number called me twice today. It sounded like someone pushing to buy shares, but they just couldn’t take the hint when I said I wasn’t interested. I’ll be letting the company they’re targeting know about these calls.5 yearsGot two calls from this number, but never let the guy say a word before I just dropped the call.5 yearsIt was a call trying to talk about Vodaphone stocks, but I just ended the call before they got a chance to explain any further. Definitely a dodgy scam.Vodafone5 yearsWas looking to invest in shares but it turned out to be a total scam. Be careful folks!5 yearsI was calling to ask about National Grid and a possible hostile takeover. The guy on the other end gave me a price that felt totally off and then began digging into how many shares I had. I just ended the call there.National Grid5 yearsThis number (0016313090427) has rung me a few times about some shares linked to my late dad. It all seems a bit dodgy, like maybe a scam, but there's just enough that it’s got me a bit curious - could be legit, who knows? It’s worrying but I can’t help but keep listening.5 yearsI was interested in buying some Tata shares but when they asked me to send it in writing, they just ended the call. Definitely sounds like a scam to me.Tata5 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from “Star Financial Services” about a hostile takeover involving shares. They told me they couldn’t reveal their identity because of the takeover’s sensitive nature. They even asked my elderly dad to sign and return an NDA before they’d share any details. I was suspicious and asked why there’s no info on their website. Turns out, the address they give in New York doesn't check out, and the phone number they’re calling from isn’t linked to the one they say is registered there. Felt very dodgy.Star Financial ServicesNew York5 yearsSeems dodgy, might be a scam.5 yearsGot a call about buying our Tata shares, but something felt off. I reckon he was just after our bank info.Tata5 yearssomeone rang up looking for my late husband’s first wife by name, which confused me since she hasn’t lived here for over two decades. i’m not sure why her name is still linked to this phone number. when i asked who was calling and their company, the caller got all muffled but i caught something like ascent financial planning. being newly widowed, this call really upset me. it’s the first time in 16 years anyone has called asking after his first wife, so it felt quite unsettling.5 yearsGot called like 3 times today from the same number. Every time I answered, they were cold callers so I just hung up and told them to shove off. Definitely not someone I want to chat with!5 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were from a firm interested in buying shares in National Grid. Even though we don’t own any shares anymore, they insisted we did and tried to get more of my personal info. Bit suspicious if you ask me.National GridSubmit Your Own Report ((631) 309-0427)
