This phone number appears to have been used for a scam. An individual, who seemed to be of Asian descent, contacted our elderly mother, who is a pensioner. We've taken the matter seriously and have reported it to the police as well as the Office of Fair Trading. The caller was located in the Reading area.

Received a call on Friday, and I contacted our bank earlier today. I'm feeling quite anxious that we might fall victim to a scam. These individuals asked for £180 in Ukash vouchers with the promise of depositing over £4,000 into our bank account.

It seems we’ve fallen prey to a scam today. An Asian gentleman provided us with a number and a code to call on Monday, but it turns out it was a trick. Where would be the best place to lodge a complaint about this?

An Asian chap rang me up, asserting he was from the "Government Claims Office," promising a refund for some banking transactions. He provided me with a number and a code, urging me to get in touch with that number. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!
