Reports on phone number 01384457287
8 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were looking into my Marks and Spencer order but obviously it was a scam. I told them my number's ex-directory and they hung up straight away. When I rang 1471 afterwards, it said that number's been disconnected and then tried to get me to call some 2 quid a minute premium number! Such a dodgy trick.MarksSpencer10 yearsI got one of those BT Truecaller phones, and honestly, it’s brilliant. The call never even rings through unless they leave a message and you press # to pick up. I still get to choose if I want to block or hang up. Honestly, best gadget I’ve purchased in ages, no more annoying withheld or international numbers bothering me since I set it up. Absolutely loving it!BT TruCall10 yearsAs soon as I picked up, they just cut the call right away, sounded like some kind of scam. Proper dodgy!10 yearsI got a call from 01384457287, a woman with an Asian accent claiming to be from "PE Wizard." She said some harmful files might have bypassed my firewall and security programmes (which seemed very doubtful since I use Norton!). She asked me to log into my PC so she could have a look. I knew it was dodgy, but I played along for a bit to annoy her, then told her I didn’t own a computer and asked her to clarify what was going on - she just hung up on me. I’ve reported the whole thing to the Police Action Fraud site.PE WizardNortonAction Fraud10 yearsI got a call from a bloke who said there was something wrong with my computer. I noticed the number had an X directory code, so I asked him how he found my number. As soon as I asked, he just hung up on me.10 yearsso I found out this number is linked to j wadley3 over at watsons green fields in rowley regis, postcode b658IjJ. WadleyWatsons Green FieldsRowley Regis10 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Jennifer at some foreign call centre. I wasn’t having it, told her to get lost you scammer. Then the line just went dead on me. Pretty sure it was a dodgy one.Jennifer10 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent asking for the password to my home computer. I just ignored her and ended the call. These sorts of calls are typical scams where they try to get control of your PC remotely. If they succeed, they could potentially mess with your online banking or any shopping you do with your card. Best advice: don’t even talk to them, just hang up straight away.10 yearsI got a call from someone telling me to turn on my computer, and they sounded pretty angry when I didn’t follow their instructions straight away. They wanted me to press some keys, something like the windows key plus r, but I didn’t go along with it. When I didn’t tell them if anything popped up, they lost their temper and passed me over to their manager, who was just as pushy. Honestly, I’d say just hang up like I did.10 yearsGot a call from someone saying there was a problem with my computer, sounded like a right scam.10 yearsI recently had an encounter with this particular number (Dudley, West Midlands), which appears to be linked to a rather dodgy outfit known as The Tech Helpline. Honestly, I suspect they might be shady computer hackers in disguise. An Indian gentleman who identified himself as Steven Woods reached out to me-funny name, right? Just a word of caution: they’ll attempt to persuade you into granting them access to your computer. It’s best to just disconnect the call and report them, rather than getting entangled in their dubious schemes.DudleyWest MidlandsThe Tech HelplineSteven Woods10 yearsGot a call from some scammers who tried to get me to let them on my computer through TeamViewer to check for a virus. I just told them to jog on and hung up.10 yearsJust like loads of others, the moment they mentioned some sort of tech support, I ended the call straight away.10 yearsWhat a total muppet, obviously some sort of scammer messing about with all this ssr+testes nonsense. Don't waste your time on these clowns!10 yearsGot a call from someone with an Indian accent. Like many others have said, he kept telling me my computer was infected and needed a virus re-download. He refused to give me a callback number - which honestly, I wasn’t going to ring anyway. I used 1471 and found out it was this exact number. Just a heads up, 01384 area codes can be purchased and used to forward calls to mobiles or different landlines!10 yearsI got a call from someone claiming my computer had issues, sounded like a call centre or something. They asked if I would let them access my computer remotely (as if I’m daft enough for that!). I thought I’d mess about a little, kept them on the line and had a laugh trying to confuse them. Eventually they gave up and just ended the call.10 yearsThey claimed there was an issue with my ID but somehow knew my name, which was odd - no idea how they got those details. I'd recommend blocking the number, sounds like one of those scams trying to access your bank by hacking your computer. The caller had a foreign accent, maybe from an Indian call centre or something.11 yearsReceived a call from this number and got a message on my answering machine. The caller had a strong accent. I've since blocked them and contacted 1470 to report the unwanted call.11 yearsCould someone shed some light on which phone service employs the number 1470 for reporting troublesome calls, please?11 yearsReceived a call during work hours.
