Reports on phone number 01282717226
2 yearsThey said they were from The workwear specialists, a site for healthcare uniforms that seemed legit at first. But don’t bother ordering from them - they take your payment, send an invoice saying it’s processing, then cancel the order and just hold on to your cash. Took me ages to get my money back through my bank. When I called them, their English was quite bad, and they wanted to chat over WhatsApp instead of properly talking. Really dodgy service overall.WhatsApp3 yearsI have a setting on my phone that tells me who’s calling before I pick up, and the person on the other end hung up without saying anything. I looked up the number here and saw it was spam, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked it.3 yearsJust got a dodgy call, total scam alert!3 yearsGot a voicemail from this number, sounded dodgy. Definitely a scam, just ended the call straight away.3 yearsYesterday, we weren’t home when the call came through, but they left a voicemail with pretty much the same details other people mentioned. Seems like just another scam to me, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number.3 yearsThey rang while we were out and didn’t bother leaving a message. Pretty sure it was just another scam call, as usual.3 yearsGot a robo call saying my card was hacked and loads of money was taken out via Amazon and Western Union. Just hung up straight away.AmazonWestern Union3 yearsI received a call from a woman’s voice informing me that £300 had been withdrawn from my visa card and instructed me to ring this number back. I decided to ignore it.3 yearsGot a call about some supposed purchase from Amazon, but it was totally a scam. Never made that transaction!Amazon3 yearsI just got a call about some Amazon order and something about an international money transfer. They told me to press 1 if I didnt agree and wanted to talk to someone. Obviously a scam, dont press 1 or youll get caught out!Amazon3 yearsThis number is definitely a scam, don’t even think about pressing 1! Total rip-off!3 yearsI got a robo call about weird activity on my account, something about two payments. Thought it was a dodgy scam, so I just ended the call.3 yearsI got a recorded message saying there were two payments taken from my bank account. It told me to press 1 if I wanted to stop them, so I did. Then they asked for my name and DOB, which I gave, but when they asked for my bank sort code, I told them they should already have that info. Not long after, they just hung up on me.3 yearsGot a call from this number, 01282717226, and it was some automated message trying to scam me about my bank card. Total scam alert!3 yearsGot a robocall from some visa dept saying my card was charged twice. Total scam, watch out!Visa3 yearsOn 10/10/23 I got a call from a recorded voice saying it was the 'Visa' department. They mentioned there were two big charges, one supposedly from Amazon and the other from Western Union. Don’t know which card company they were even talking about.VisaAmazonWestern Union3 yearsGot a robocall saying my card was charged twice or something, kept going on and on about it. Total scam, just hung up.3 yearsHad almost the same thing happen to me like some folks on here - a supposed Amazon charge of £700, then they asked for £1100 through Western Union. They told me to hit 1 to cancel payments or 2 to chat with fraud team but then just cut the call off.AmazonWestern Union3 yearsGot a dodgy call about moving a big sum of money, sounded like a total scam.3 yearsCalled at 1:45 this afternoon. Got an automated message regarding some hefty charges on my Visa/Mastercard. I had a hunch it was a dodgy call since I had a silent one earlier today-clearly, they were trying to confirm my number was working! This is the second call of a similar nature I’ve had this month.3 yearsI received a couple of missed calls today from this number, but they didn't bother leaving a message. Quite curious, really!3 yearsI've had a similar experience earlier, receiving a call at approximately 1:44 PM. It was a pre-recorded message regarding two hefty transactions on my Visa-one for £300 via Amazon and another for £1100 through Western Union. The message prompted me to press 1 to get in touch. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!AmazonWestern Union3 yearsI received a call but had a blocker activated, which likely led them to disconnect as soon as it engaged. Seems pretty dodgy to me, if I'm honest!3 yearsI received a notification claiming that my Visa card has been involved in a couple of potentially dodgy transactions. Turns out, that call itself was the real scam!3 yearsI’ve just received a call, and what a shocker it was! It turns out, like others have mentioned before, that the same two figures linked to those same two companies also pertain to my “account.” Isn’t that amusing?3 yearsI received a dubious call regarding my credit card - they failed to specify which card it was or even which bank they were representing. All I got was some vague nonsense about having two hefty payments pending authorisation. They wanted me to press 1 to accept or 2 to speak to a representative. Naturally, I ignored the lot!3 yearsIf you can avoid it, I would suggest not responding.3 yearsTook a call today at 13:49, only to hear a pre-recorded message about two hefty charges on my Visa/MasterCard. Clearly, that’s just not right. This marks the second time this week I’ve received a similar call on my private work line, which is supposedly registered with the TPS (not that it seems to make much difference!).TPS3 yearsI've received a robotic message, just like everyone else seems to have mentioned. The same figures seem to be hanging around, awaiting approval.3 yearsI received a call suggesting there was some dodgy activity associated with my account. Is there really no way to track down these rogues, put an end to their antics, and throw them behind bars?3 yearsReceived a call but there was nothing but silence on the other end before they promptly disconnected. Quite baffling!3 years14.16 It’s strikingly similar, isn’t it? £300 for Amazon and a whopping £1000 for an international transfer through Visa or Mastercard. Quite clearly, this is a dodgy scheme!AmazonVisaMastercard3 yearsI received a call from a lady, but I didn’t pick up, yet £300 has been deducted from my Visa card. Quite baffling, to say the least!3 yearsThe call ended before I had a chance to pick up. They've been added to my blocked list.3 yearsHad another dodgy call this week, the first one was from 01642 455569. It was the same spiel - they claimed there was suspicious activity on my card linked to Amazon and Western Union. Just terminated the call.AmazonWesternUnion3 yearsJust like others have mentioned, I received a pre-recorded message claiming that I had £300 credit from Amazon and also alerting me about £1100 in suspicious international transactions. Quite alarming!Amazon3 yearsI suspect I've fallen victim to credit card fraud. It seems my details have been compromised, and I'm quite anxious about it. I've noticed some transactions that I definitely didn't authorise. It's a worrying situation, and I'm keen to get to the bottom of this before it spirals further out of control. I’ve already contacted my bank, but it’s all so distressing, isn’t it?3 yearsYet another scam attempt claiming to be from Visa! It's astonishing how these crooks have been using the same pre-recorded spiel for such a long stretch of time. You'd think they'd at least try to switch it up a bit!Visa3 yearsReceived a message regarding a supposed security issue, instructing me to press 1 on my device. I decided to hang up instead.3 yearsReceived a dodgy call indicating that there were two questionable transactions of £300 and £1100 linked to my Visa card for Amazon. They urged me to press 1 to confirm or 2 to connect with a representative. I swiftly hung up and made sure to block the number!AmazonSubmit Your Own Report (01282 717226)
