3 yearsAs of 21st December 2023, this number is definitely still linked to scammers. I've already flagged it with BT's abuse department. I got a voicemail saying it was Mastercard calling to notify me about two recent transactions on my card - one was £14.99 supposedly for Amazon Prime, and the other was a much larger amount. Loads of people online have been sharing similar reports about this scam over the last few months.BTMastercardAmazon Prime3 yearsOn 21st December 2023, this number was definitely still active with those scam folks. I’ve already notified BT’s abuse department about it. Like others have said, when I called back, there was this automated message claiming it was Mastercard warning me about two transactions: one for £14.99 linked to Amazon Prime, and another one for a lot more money. Total rubbish, as far as I’m concerned.BTMastercardAmazon Prime3 yearsThose calls are definitely from con artists.3 yearsI got a call supposedly from 'the bank' about two transactions, quoting the amounts and asking me to confirm them. One was an overseas payment which I definitely hadn’t made, so it set alarm bells ringing. I ended the call and rang 147, which gave me this number - turns out it’s a scam. It’s frustrating that BT hasn’t done anything to fix this problem.BT3 yearsDo you think BT ought to block this number?BT3 yearsGot a voicemail saying my mastercard was charged a certain amount. Odd thing is, I don’t even own a credit card! My elderly husband, who’s 85, picked up the call and got pretty anxious.
