01224606247 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01224606247 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number primarily targeting individuals with calls falsely claiming to be from the NHS or Public Health departments about Covid-19 vaccinations. Callers, often with foreign accents, ask intrusive questions about vaccination status and then aggressively probe for life insurance or personal financial details. The calls are frequently disconnected when challenged, leaving many recipients suspicious of phishing attempts and identity fraud. Blocking the number is commonly advised, though scammers often use multiple numbers to bypass restrictions. Genuine NHS communications do not request sensitive financial information by phone, and any such calls should be treated with caution. It is recommended to report these calls to the police fraud database and inform local MPs to help combat this ongoing fraudulent activity.

On 9th May 2022, someone rang me saying they were from Public Health, asking about my vaccination status and if I had insurance. I ended the call straight away. Then today, 16th May 2022, I got another call from a Nottingham number, 0115 778 9620. It was an Asian gentleman again asking the same questions about vaccination. I told him Public Health must already have my info and then hung up. I've blocked both these numbers now and will keep blocking any others that show up, especially from different towns. Be careful with odd local numbers like these.

I got a call from this number, and it was a guy speaking with an Asian accent. He said it was about getting the Covid vaccination and something about a Covid Pass, claiming to be from the NHS. But honestly, why would the NHS ring you from a private number? Felt like he was trying to scam me and grab my medical details. Definitely dodgy.

Beware, this is definitely a scam from people pretending to be Track and Trace! I got a call from an Asian lady called Emma, she started with "Hello miss, I'm calling from Track and Trace." Then she said I owed them £409. Absolutely ridiculous. Told her to get lost. Honestly, don’t even pick up if you get a similar call. These fake companies should be shut down for good. What a joke!

Got a call from a Scottish number, but the guy had a thick Indian accent, which seemed a bit odd. Said he was ringing from some "Covid 19 Helpdesk". He then asked if I’d had all my jabs. I just said "No comment" and he ended the chat pretty politely, wishing me a good day. All my gut tells me it was a trick call.

This bloke claimed he was from the NHS, which I doubt. I reckon if it was really the NHS, they'd ring from an 0800 number. He asked if I had life insurance, which sounded a bit dodgy to me. I didn’t give out any personal details, though. Just a heads up, be careful.

Blocking these scam calls is pretty useless. The fraudsters just switch up their numbers and keep ringing you. A few hours ago, there are like 3 posts on here explaining what you can do to actually stop them, but be warned, it’s not gonna be easy and you’ll have to put some work into it.

Then they suddenly started asking about my life insurance details. I told them that was none of their business and that the NHS wouldn’t ask for that sort of info. They tried asking again, but I told them I thought it was a scam and hung up straight away. Later that day, the same number called me again, but I refused the call and have since blocked it.

Someone rang me claiming to be from the NHS Covid jab team, checking if I'd experienced any side effects. Then they oddly asked about my health insurance and how much I pay monthly - I told them my employer covers it.

When I questioned the reason for the call again, they just said it was to update my records, so I ended the call there.

I got a call today asking if I was fully vaccinated, the person actually said, “you’re fully vaccinated, right?” I told them no, and then they claimed to be from the Covid 19 department wanting to know if I had insurance. I asked what their purpose was and where they were calling from, but they just kept saying it was the Covid 19 department. I then told them I work there and we don’t carry out calls like that. They insisted we do, but I disagreed firmly. After a bit more arguing, they said something else and just hung up. Seriously, don’t get tricked by these calls!

He called me this morning saying he was Allan from some covid enquiry team or something. I just told him I’m all good and hung up straight away. Then this afternoon, he rang again with the same story, so I told him I knew he wasn’t legit and told him to stop wasting my time. In truth, I just told him to get lost!

Got two calls from this number but when I tried to call back, it just cut off straight away. Strange.

Got a call supposedly from the NHS about my Covid jabs, but it was a total scam. They asked if I’d had them, and when I replied, “You’d have that info already, wouldn’t you?” they just ended the call.

On mobile phones, you won’t be able to use 141. Instead, you need to find the setting in your phone’s options to disable the caller ID before making a call.

Looks like a total scam call to me.
