Phone number ☎️ 0018188909812 👆 is reported as a persistent scam originating from an overseas call centre, often using an American phone number and heavy foreign accents. Callers impersonate major UK energy suppliers like British Gas, N Power, E.ON, SSE, and Scottish Power, requesting sensitive information such as meter readings, supply numbers, invoice details, and contract information. They use high-pressure tactics, repeated calls, and sometimes offensive language when challenged. Genuine companies do not ask for personal or account details this way and will not harass consumers. It is strongly advised not to provide any information, to request communication in writing, and to block the number immediately. This number is widely recognised as linked to fraudulent attempts to gain account access and should be treated with caution.

9 yearsWe've been getting calls from this number today, like four times now. The person says they're from British Gas but sounds like they've got an Indian accent, and the weird part is the number looks American. Proper annoying!British Gas9 yearsGot a call saying it was British Gas about some meter issue and address mix-up. Total con. The number was from the US and the person on the line had a really strong Filipino accent.British GasStatesPhilippines9 yearsGot a call from this number earlier, claiming to be British Gas. Thing is, my phone showed the call coming all the way from the US! I spent about 12 minutes chatting with the bloke, telling him straight up I knew it was a scam. He was laughing the whole time but still kept pushing for my meter reference number, insisting he was from British Gas. Needless to say, I’ve blocked the number now.British GasAmerica9 yearsGot a call from an Indian call centre out of the blue. They knew my name and asked for me directly. I just ended the call straight away.India9 yearsThis number has called me for three days straight, saying they're from N Power and that our contract ran out. When I told them I knew it was a scam and they weren't real N Power, they kept calling non-stop. They even threatened to keep ringing until we agreed to sign up for some supposed 'new' deal with them. Proper sketchy behaviour.N Power9 yearsGot a call today from some bloke called Alan who said he was from Opus. He wanted the supply numbers for electric and gas at one of our locations, then asked about the latest bill amounts and when our contracts end. Feels like they were trying to fish out my details or something.AlanOpus9 yearsI got a call from this number at around 10:30 this morning. The bloke on the line was pretty rude, asking me to confirm my supply number for a meter reading. When I requested he send me something in writing, he just got annoyed and refused. He told me he’d ring back at 1pm and expected me to have the info ready. Honestly, it felt dodgy to me, so watch out and don’t hand over any info without getting something written first - an email or letter. If it’s legit, they’d have no problem doing that.9 yearsOn the 10th of May, someone called claiming to be Luke, then the next day, the same number rang but this time the caller said his name was Jack! The guy had a strong Asian accent and said he was from Eon’s meter reading team, asking for the supply number found on our last bill because apparently their computers were acting up. I decided to phone Eon's Customer Services directly, and they told me it had nothing to do with them. They also suggested setting up a password on my account for security.LukeJackEonEon ’ s Customer Services9 yearsGot a call at our office earlier from someone who never even gave his name. He just said he wanted meter readings. Didn’t ask who he was speaking to or even the company name. Then out of nowhere he started asking for invoice info. When I questioned him, he claimed to be from EDF. Are people really that daft? Loads of scams going round these days, it’s unreal.EDF9 yearsThis number has been ringing our office about 20 times daily - total pain!9 yearsJust got a call from a bloke with a funny accent claiming to be from N Power, asking for my supply number. I told him to send me a letter or an email instead and that I'd get back to him then.N Power9 yearsSome bloke called James Morgan saying he was from Opus, asking for the same stuff others have mentioned. When I didn’t give him the info he got proper irritated and told me to f### off. Then he rang me again the next day, so I told him what he said the day before, but he just denied it. So, I just hung up on him.James MorganOpus9 yearsJust had a guy ring up with some foreign accent, said he was from the EON meter reading team and asked for my supply number. Totally dodgy! Didn’t buy a word, blocked him straight away.9 yearsI recently received a call purporting to be from Gazprom, asserting that there was a problem with the serial number linked to our electricity account. The chap on the line requested the number displayed on our invoice, however, I countered and asked him to provide the number *he* held. Coincidentally, they were identical. Then he went off on a tangent about some "number above the line," which left me completely baffled. He proceeded to inquire whether Gazprom was also our gas supplier... At that moment, I made it clear that I wasn't willing to share any more details, and he promptly ended the call.Gazprom9 yearsJust to keep you posted, I rang up SSE myself and they clarified that it’s indeed some brokers fishing for information. So, it’s safe to say it’s a scam.9 yearsI just got a call from someone claiming to be with the SSE meter reading department, saying there was an issue with a reading they'd supposedly received. The strange thing is, I’ve never even requested a meter reading! They were spouting off details like my meter number and serial number-everything a broker would require to pry into your account with your electricity supplier. It’s clearly a dodgy attempt to extract personal information to flog to brokers or who knows what. Be wary!9 yearsI had a rather strange encounter with a caller claiming to be from Scottish Power, insisting they needed to verify my supply number and check how much credit I had left. Then, they started asking for the name on the bill. At that point, I pointed out that if they were genuinely Scottish Power, they ought to already have that information. So, I decided to cut the conversation short and ended the call. I can't quite figure out what they were actually after, though - it felt a bit dodgy to me!Scottish Power9 yearsIt seems like clients are being asked to fork out £2,000 due to some fraudulent activities linked to British Gas accounts. Quite alarming, isn’t it?British Gas9 yearsI received a call from Scottish and Southern Energy, and they mentioned they needed to verify my supplier identification number.ScottishSouthern Energy9 yearsReceived a phone call purporting to be from British Gas, stating there was a complication with my supply number that required my confirmation.
