Reports on phone number 008735891958
7 yearsHad a caller on the line trying to get me involved in some share scam with BAT. I told him he was a con artist and to never contact me again, then just hung up. I've already reported the number to the FCA so hopefully they'll look into it.BATFCA7 yearsSo this woman with an Asian accent rang me up about some shares I supposedly have in DTZ, mentioning some buyer interested in them. Thing is, those shares haven’t been listed for years now. This is actually the second time in a couple of years I’ve had a call like this from them. Last time, they tried to offer me £8 a share! Proper sly scammers if you ask me!DTZ7 yearsA lady with an Asian accent rang me up, talking about some kind of Asian investments she said I’d made. I was completely lost and told her I had no idea what she was saying. When I asked if she could send me the details in writing, she just hung up before I could finish what I was saying.Asia7 yearsGot a call from some Asian guy wanting to talk to my husband about shares in NXT PLC. Thing is, that company got sold to Hiwave and went under like five years back. I told him he should send me something in writing instead.NXT PLCHiwave7 yearsSomeone rang my elderly mum asking to talk to my dad, who passed away three years ago. When she said she didn’t want to speak to him and ended the call, the man, who sounded Asian, called back and questioned why she’d hung up on him!Mum7 yearsSo this guy, Mr Hernandez from New York, says he’s ready to shell out £17 per share for my Stagecoach stock - which I dont even own anymore - and those shares are only worth about £1.65 now. I’m wondering if im passing up a golden opportunity or just getting scammed. There’s that old phrase you hear all the time: when something seems way too good, it’s usually a con - and this definitely feels like one.HernandezNew YorkStagecoach7 yearsGot a call earlier from a guy claiming he was based in New York and said he worked for Levenson. He mentioned knowing I owned shares in Stageciach and said they were planning to take over the company. He tried to offer me between £8 and £70 per share to buy them. Asked for my email but I just cut the chat there. I swear I heard someone shouting in the background encouraging him on.New YorkLevensonStageciach7 yearsI got a call from someone named James Allen, claiming to be in New York. He said I had leftover shares in a business that’d been bought out last year, and that I should’ve got paid already. He tried pushing me to sign some kind of confidentiality agreement for a firm called Levenson Partners. I told him my cousin’s on the board there and I’d check with him first (plus I’ve already let the company know what’s going on).James AllenNew YorkLevenson Partners7 yearsSome guy from Asia rang me about shares he claimed I’d purchased. Since that was complete rubbish, I told him not to bother calling me ever again. He got really angry and started shouting at me, so I just hung up.7 yearsGot a call from some bloke calling himself "Gordon Lee", had a pretty sketchy accent though. He somehow knew I had shares in TrafficMaster and was trying to convince me to sell them for a big payout. Kept saying it was a hostile takeover and that I couldn’t mention it to anyone. Claimed he was calling from New York, but honestly sounded like he was somewhere in the Philippines. The number he used was the one above. Honestly, how do these scammers sleep at night?Gordon LeeTrafficMasterNew YorkPhilippines7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be "Tony Young" who said they were buying shares in a UK company at a much higher price than they're worth. I started to get wary when I asked a few questions and the person’s odd accent didn’t help. Plus, the call came in pretty late at night, which seemed off to me. Honestly, I reckon this call wasn’t legit. My advice? If you get one of these calls, just hang up and forget about it - better to spend your time doing something worthwhile than wasting it on suspicious callers.Tony YoungUK7 yearsGot a call from someone with an Asian accent trying to talk about buying shares my late wife sold like 15 years back. I told him he had the wrong info since she’s been gone for over five years now and told him to buzz off.7 yearsGot a call about some shares in #######, sounded like a classic boiler room scam. When I asked for his UK licence number from the FSA, he quickly hung up. Seemed dodgy as anything!UKFCA7 yearsLike some of the others have said, I had a guy with an Asian accent ring me up saying he was from CooperNewton’s NY branch - didn’t know how he even knew I supposedly had some shares. He wanted to buy them off me at a crazy high price. At first, he sounded really believable but then things started to feel fishy. I checked out the company’s websites and phone numbers and soon realised the whole thing was a con. Even when I called him out on it, he kept insisting it was all above board. I’m sure he’s still at it. DNew YorkCooperNewton8 yearsA man with an accent I couldn't place rang me, claiming he was phoning from the US about a buyer interested in my Desire Petroleum shares. I explained I'd sold those shares ages ago, but he kept insisting I still owned over 5000 shares and that his client was willing to pay £8 each. I kept repeating I no longer had any shares, but he was convinced otherwise. I told him if his client really wanted to pay that amount, they could send me a cheque, though I was quite certain I had no shares left. He said he'd check my shareholding and get back to me.StatesDesire Petroleum8 yearsI own shares in a US firm named Genmark Diagnostics and have recently faced a few scam attempts linked to them. Just yesterday, I got a call on this number from a man with a foreign accent, not American but I couldn’t quite place where from. When I called him out for trying to scam me, he became hostile and hung up straight away. I tried calling the number back but it came up as unreachable.USGenmark Diagnostics8 yearsGot a call from an Asian bloke, first time asking about my mum's shares in Logica, which doesn’t even exist anymore - she’s been dead since 2012. Told him it was a waste of time and hung up. Then he rang again, this time claiming some firm took over Logica and wanted to buy the shares back (which isn’t true at all). I clearly told him not to bother calling again. Watch out for these dodgy calls!Logica8 yearsI got three calls within just a few minutes.8 yearsThis guy's trying to pull a scam with some dodgy shares.8 yearskeeps ringing from a guy with an accent i dont recognise. he always wants to speak to the missus. i just end the call straight away.Submit Your Own Report ()
