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 Calls are typically unsolicited, with incorrect or outdated personal information used to manipulate recipients.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 yearsI got a call from some scammer, probs from some dodgy country. I just kept them on the line saying I had to look for my bank card, but was pretty sure the number was 1234 5678 91012. Lad spent ages trying to convince me, so I was just winding them up.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 yearsGot a call from someone with a thick foreign accent saying they were from O2 and wanted to give me a special deal because I’m supposedly already a customer. Thing is, I’m not with them at all. They hung up pretty fast after that.5 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with o2 and offering a deal, but then they started asking for my personal info and passwords for my account. I just hung up and blocked the number straight away.5 yearsthe caller claimed to be from O2 saying they could get me a 40% off my current plan. the line was super noisy and they sounded very unprofessional.5 yearsSome bloke said he was from 02 and tried to sell me a discount. Yeah right, like 02 would actually give any kind of deal! 😂😂😂5 yearsJust like loads of others have said, this number said they were from O2 and tried to tempt me with a 40% discount. As soon as I mentioned I'm not the account owner, they quickly ended the call. Pretty typical behaviour from these calls.5 yearsGot a call from someone overseas saying they were from O2, trying to offer me a 40% discount because of covid or something. Felt a bit dodgy to me.5 yearsGot a call today, the way they spoke was really hard to understand but it was defo a scam.5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from O2, saying I qualified for 40% off my bill because I’m always punctual with payments. I told them I was busy and asked for a callback number but they kept insisting it wouldn’t take long. I ended up hanging up and called O2 directly, who told me they don’t make calls like that. Later, the same number phoned again. I informed them I’d checked with O2 and it was a scam. The caller tried to argue, even sending me a couple of texts that looked legit, supposedly from O2 - but I knew those were fake too. I ended the call, blocked the number, and changed my O2 password just to be safe.5 yearsBeware of these O2 scam calls from India offering 40% off. They ring up pretending it’s a special loyalty discount because of Covid or something. What they really want is your 6 digit O2 security code so they can get into your account or mess with your upgrades. Don’t ever share that code with anyone! I usually keep them hanging by giving a random code, just to annoy them for a good 20 minutes. Honestly, it drives them mad. If you get a call from India claiming it’s some kind of offer, especially from India, just hang up. Almost definitely a scam.IndiaSubmit Your Own Report (0116 318 0617)
