Phone number ☎️ 01162412401 👆 is reported as a nuisance number tied to calls from men often claiming to be government officials offering refunds. Callers sometimes use official-sounding departments like the ministry of justice or a claims advisory group, but their behaviour is suspicious. They ask for personal details, hang up abruptly if challenged, or laugh inappropriately. Phone numbers they use might actually belong to legitimate businesses but appear to be hijacked. Many recipients do not trust the calls, believing them to be scams or attempts to get personal info under false pretences. The calls can come from different accents, including Indian or African sounding men, adding to the unease. Overall, this number is best viewed with considerable scepticism.
Reports on phone number 01162412401
4 yearsEarlier today, I received a telephone call from a chap with a distinctly Indian accent. He asserted that he was affiliated with a government agency and had some sort of refund awaiting me. He insisted that I qualified for this refund. However, I made it clear that I wasn’t in the slightest bit interested. Honestly, I’d never put my faith in a caller like him, especially coming from a number I didn't recognise.9 yearsI got a call from these guys, and the chap on the phone was chuckling away. I reckon he was having a giggle at how my surname sounds in Hindi.9 yearsJust got a call at 5:12 this evening.9 yearsI got a call from a bloke with an Indian accent who started by giving me a name and address, then wanted me to confirm if it was right. I refused to do that. He then said there was a government cheque waiting for me. He claimed to work for something called the "claim advisory group," which he said belonged to the ‘ministry of justice’. According to him, I was due some money. I just messed around with him a bit before hanging up.Claim Advisory GroupMinistry of Justice9 yearsGot a call from some guy with an Indian accent asking if I was Mrs ######. When I told him no and asked for his name, he just cut the call straight away. Doesn’t feel like a proper business call to me.9 yearsI called but no one answered.Submit Your Own Report (0116 241 2401)
