Phone number ☎️ 01163180617 👆 is reported as a persistent scam impersonating O2, often claiming to offer a 40% discount due to loyalty or Covid. The callers, frequently with foreign accents and unclear language, attempt to gain personal details and security codes, sometimes sending texts that look official to gain trust. Many advise never to share any verification codes, as these are used to access accounts fraudulently. Calls are typically unsolicited, with incorrect or outdated personal information used to manipulate recipients. Genuine O2 representatives reportedly do not make such discount offers via unsolicited calls. Users recommend hanging up immediately, blocking the number, verifying directly with O2 if uncertain, and changing account passwords if any information was exposed.

5 yearsDodgy chaps from a far-flung corner of the world are at it again! If you ever find yourself in one of their conversations, just keep them chatting for as long as you can. Make out as though you're on the hunt for your debit card, all the while insisting that the number must be 1234 5678 91012. It’s a right laugh to lead them on!5 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from 02, offering a 40% off deal. They texted me warning that I shouldn’t share a code they’d send. Then, out of nowhere, I got a six-digit code with some vague instructions on where to put it - totally confusing! Figured it was dodgy, so I just ended the call.5 yearsPicked up the call and said hello, but all I heard were noises like a call centre. Total spam, blocked it straight away!5 yearssomeone rang me but had my previous address saved and asked for where i live now. i didn't know who it was so i just hung up, watch out!5 yearssome bloke said he was from 02 which is supposed to be my phone company, but ive never even been with 02. he started telling me about some deal but i just hung up straight away. total scam this one!O25 yearsReceived a call from a person with a heavy foreign accent, purporting to be from O2, trying to sell me some exclusive deal since I'm a current customer. The thing is, I'm not even with them! The call didn’t last long before it was cut off.5 yearsReceived a call purporting to be from O2, touting some sort of discount. However, they quickly requested personal information and my O2 account passwords. I hung up and promptly blocked the number.5 yearsReceived a call claiming to be from O2 with some rather tempting offer of a 40% reduction on my existing contract. However, the experience was incredibly unprofessional, and the line was so chaotic that I could barely hear anything.5 yearsReceived a call purporting to be from O2, promising me a discount. Honestly, as if O2 would ever hand out discounts like that! 😂😂😂5 yearsJust like the numerous other remarks here, I received a call supposedly from O2, boasting about a 40% discount. However, when I informed them that I wasn't the account holder, they promptly cut the line. Quite the dodgy tactic, if you ask me!5 yearsI received a call from someone purporting to be from O2, saying they were offering a 40% discount because of the pandemic. Seems a bit dodgy, if you ask me!5 yearsThe communication today wasn't exactly crystal clear, but it's quite evident that it's a scam.5 yearsReceived a call from someone claiming to represent O2, insisting that I was entitled to a generous 40% reduction on my bills due to my punctual payments. I mentioned that I was quite busy at the moment and asked for a callback number. However, they were rather pushy, assuring me it wouldn’t take long, which prompted me to simply hang up. I then contacted O2 directly, and they informed me that they never reach out to customers with such offers. Later on, the same caller tried to reach me again, and I informed him about my chat with O2, which confirmed it was a scam. This led to a rather heated exchange, as he claimed he could easily validate his legitimacy. He then sent me two text messages that appeared to originate from O2, but I remembered reading that this was a common tactic in scams. I decided to end the conversation and block the number without hesitation. As a precaution, I also changed my password for my O2 account.5 yearsI recently received a rather dubious phone call claiming to be from O2, offering me a supposed 40% loyalty discount due to the pandemic. It was quite clear to me that this was nothing more than a scam, as the caller’s sole intent was to extract my 6-digit O2 security code in order to manipulate my personal information and upgrade choices. My advice? Never divulge your security code under any circumstances. To pass the time, I found it amusing to lead the scammer on by giving them a fake code for a good twenty minutes-watching their frustration build was quite entertaining! In summary, if you receive a call from someone in India with an enticing offer, be extremely cautious, as it’s almost certainly a con.IndiaSubmit Your Own Report (0116 318 0617)
