01248248023 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01248248023 👆 is reported as a persistent scam and nuisance caller linked to various fraudulent impersonations, including fake representatives from well-known companies like Currys, O2, Virgin Media, and Carphone Warehouse.

Many users report repeated calls from slightly different numbers, no messages left, and frequent hang-ups. The number is associated with telemarketing scams, premium rate traps, and attempts to extract personal or financial information. Victims strongly advise blocking the number, not engaging, and reporting to official fraud authorities. This number exemplifies the ongoing challenges of scam calls despite blocking attempts.

There’s only 2 posts laying out what you should do if you wanna put an end to all these dodgy foreign scammers ripping off vulnerable people’s cash and pestering everyone else. It’s a bit of a faff but I’ve done it myself, reporting scam calls and texts to the police database (lucky for me the link’s saved in my bookmarks). Sadly, it needs thousands of folks doing this before any real change happens, but every day loads of people report scam calls on here. You won’t see any quick results if you bother reporting, but if nobody bothers, these scams will just go on forever.

Some woman claimed she was ringing from Currys, with a supposed cracking deal on a phone. I wound her up as long as I could cos obviously the longer she’s on the line with me, the less time she’s spending trying to scam others. After a bit, I told her the number showed Bangor, North Wales, and she said their office was there or something. Then, out of the blue, she just cut me off!

Heads up, 01248 numbers are actually premium rate, so watch out. The trick is, they ring you and then just drop the call. If you ring back without knowing they’re premium rate, you could end up with a hefty bill. You can check it out here https://www.ukphoneinfo.com/area-code/01248

I got a call from Curry's Mobile asking about what phone I was using. When I asked where they got my number from, they said it was passed on by my mobile provider. But when I pressed which one, they couldn’t tell me and just said they work alongside EE, O2, and Vodafone. I told them I never agreed to them having my number or phoning me like that, and then they just hung up.

Claiming to be from Carphone Warehouse, they were promoting an iPhone 13 Pro Max for just £35 a month. However, the call ended rather abruptly when I mentioned that my number is with the Telephone Preference Service. I've since reported it as a bothersome call to 7726 and the TPS.

I received a call this morning at 9 AM from 01248248023 on my home phone. An Indian woman claimed to be calling from Open Reach, but the whole thing felt very much like a call centre operation. I’ve spoken with genuine Open Reach engineers before, and I can assure you, none of them have ever been from a call centre or tried to frighten me about my internet connection being hacked. She insisted on verifying if I was the account holder and requested my personal information. Immediately, I sensed something was off and told her I thought it was a scam before hanging up. I then looked up the number and found an answerphone message instructing me to email sparkssolutions96 if I wished to stop this so-called "marketing." But let’s be honest, this isn’t marketing at all! These individuals are a sinister presence, attempting to invade your peace of mind for their own gain. For anyone concerned about their online safety, it’s wise to invest in a VPN and block this number and its associated callers.

Just got a call from 01248248023, which is a Welsh number. The caller said they were from Carphone Warehouse, asking about what phone I’ve got and who my provider is. They tried to sell me an iPhone 13 Pro on Three for £21 a month. Carphone said Three was their service partner. Then they asked for £350 upfront for the phone and a £10 security payment. Total scam!

I got a robotic voice saying something like "You have been ___ from our ___" (couldn't really figure out the missing words) and then they cut me off.

Got a call from 01248 248023, some Indian scammer pretending to be CarPhone Warehouse. They were pushing these crazy "deals" that sounded way too good to be true just to make you sign up.

Got a missed call from this number. They definitely didn’t know me as I’m usually busy around the same time they rang.

Got a call from Bangor in Wales, but I don’t know anyone there. Didn’t pick up. Looked it up here and decided to block the number afterwards.

It showed up as probable spam, so I just ignored it.

Received a call purporting to be from Carphone Warehouse, supposedly about the latest iPhone 13. When I mentioned that I’d already acquired one, he inquired about the price I’d paid. At that point, I decided it was best to hang up, as it seemed obviously dodgy.

So, I received a call claiming, "We've detected an issue with your home PC." I mentioned that I was employed at Microsoft, and suddenly, they ended the call!

The guy sounded Chinese, I told him a couple of times I wasn’t getting what he said but he just kept going like I wasn’t even talking.

I don’t pick up if I don’t know the number anymore. If it’s really something urgent, they’ll ring again. Reading what everyone’s said about this number says it all for me.
