009 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 009 👆 is reported as a persistent scam involving calls from numbers starting with international prefixes, often tied to Nigeria. Callers use recorded messages claiming unauthorised transactions on bank accounts, typically relating to airline ticket purchases costing hundreds of pounds. They frequently urge recipients to press a number to confirm or dispute the charges, aiming to extract personal or financial information. The callers often imitate American accents and falsely identify themselves as bank fraud departments. Recipients are advised not to engage, to hang up immediately and block the numbers. These calls are strongly linked to fraudulent attempts to access card details, and genuine banks never request confirmation via unsolicited phone calls. Awareness and caution are essential to avoid falling victim to this ongoing telephone fraud.
