6 years0141 280 7229 just messaged me sayin ‘hey boo?? is this #my name but with some totally made-up middle name that kinda rhymes but is all misspelled# I’m your biggest fan pls respond’6 yearsTotal scam, do not trust it!6 yearsThey rang me, said they were from Lloyds and wanted personal details to get into my account. As soon as I said I knew it was a scam, they phoned again and started threatening me with my address.Lloyds Bank6 yearsThis number comes from an app that hides the actual phone number of the caller. It’s often used to reach out to someone who’s blocked the caller. Pretty dodgy stuff. If you’ve had a call from this number, best thing is to block it straight away.6 yearsI got a text from this number about a DVLA medical, saying they were the doctor or something?DVLA7 years01412807229 messaged me with a really cheeky text, found this page and decided to block them straight away.7 yearsGot some really disrespectful texts, i’ll be making sure to deal with this properly.7 yearsGot some really nasty messages, gonna sort this out properly.7 yearsthey actually knew my address and even named seven of my mates!7 yearsGot a text just saying hi and then my name, didn’t reply and just blocked em straight away.7 yearsA mate of mine got a message that said “check outside” and it was pretty odd.7 yearsLike another person mentioned, I reckon this has got to do with some app sending texts even after you’ve blocked a number, coz I got messages about a bad mate as well.8 yearsThis person messaged me with a simple "hello" but when I asked who it was since the number wasn't in my contacts, they said I already knew them and called themselves my guy? That’s definitely not right and it made me feel uneasy.8 yearsOnly got a text that said ‘hi’. After seeing all these, I’ll just block now, cheers everyone!8 yearsThis guy somehow gets hold of your phone and if you’re not interested, him and his mate start messing about. It’s exactly what happened to my mate as well! James Allday from Uxbridge. We used to be mates but he’s got loads of women on the go. You hear his name come up in pubs, so don’t give him your number. I’ve got a crime ref number but the cops aren’t doing much about it.James AlldayUxbridge8 yearsHaha, got a couple texts from 01412807229. First one was from a “Vanessa” saying she’s after a proper English bloke and is into me. Then the next said it’s not some scam, she’d seen my profile pic and wants to… well, sit on my face! 😂 I couldn’t resist replying, said somethin’ like, ‘Honestly, when I look at my own profile pic, I sometimes wanna sit on my own face as well!’ Proper funny stuff!Vanessa8 yearsgot a message that just said ‘watch your back -M’ bit creepy if you ask me8 yearsThis number looks like it’s from one of those disposable phone apps.9 yearsGot a message from someone called Michelle Collins asking me to contact them via email about my guitar I’ve got listed on Gumtree. I replied, but then got a weird message back saying they wanted to send a courier to collect it because they’re deaf and use a wheelchair. It made me uneasy since I already sent them a PayPal invoice - does that mean they have access to my bank details now? After reading some of the other comments here, I’ve gone ahead and blocked their email and cancelled the invoice just to be safe.Michelle CollinsGumtreePayPal9 yearsI havent picked up but they rang me 3 times already and just called again at half past one in the morning. From what I’ve read in the comments, it looks like it’s connected to gumtree or something, but I aint selling anything on there :/Gumtree9 yearsJust block him, it’s one of those gumtree con jobs.9 yearsGot a dodgy message about a sofa i'm selling on gumtree. These muppets must really think we're daft. Don't fall for their scams, just block and ignore their messages.Gumtree9 yearsGot a text from this number about my car listing on Friday-Ad in Sussex. They gave me an email address [email protected][###]. When I replied by email, the reply was a long story about being in the military and couldn’t take calls. They said they wanted to buy the car for a cousin, ready to pay without even checking it or fuss about price. They wanted to pay through PayPal too. Not bothering to reply again.Sussex9 yearsGot a text about my car listing on gumtree. Checked the phone number and stumbled on this site.Gumtree9 yearsTried to reach out through email about a Gumtree listing - turned out to be a scam.Gumtree9 yearsGot a call that was proper annoying.9 yearsSomeone responded to my Gumtree ad and I found it a bit dodgy. Thankfully I searched his number on Google first. The message he sent me is below. Definitely feels like a SCAM. He said he’s interested in the bike, asking about the final price and its current state. Then asked me to reply via his email (franklamp1000(at)gmail[###]).Gumtree9 yearsGot a phone call pretending to be from Paypal but reckoned they were trying to scam me, said they were interested in buying something from Gumtree. Total dodgy call!GumtreePayPal9 yearsGot a text from 0141280 7229 about my Gumtree ad, asking me to get in touch with mullenwilliamjoh(@)gmail[###]. I didn’t reply straight away cos it smelt fishy. Looks like from what others are saying, I wasn’t wrong to be suspicous.Gumtree9 years[email protected][###] Just like everyone else says, "wheelchair-bound, can't come to view" - complete excuse. Avoid dealing with this bloke!9 yearsGot a text from this number about my Gumtree ad. They wanted to chat via email [email protected], said the item was for a relative who’s in a wheelchair, and they’d send a courier and pay through PayPal. Classic scam - same story as always!Gumtree9 yearsEnded up getting some proper abuse on the line.9 years[email protected][###] or +441143599246. Like others mentioned, he claims to be serving our country and cannot use his bank account, only PayPal. Always begins with “Hello Kindly.” Sounds really suspicious. BEST NOT TO PICK UP. JUST DELETE AND BLOCK.9 yearsGot a reply to my auto trader post, they asked me to send my PayPal info by email. Looked up the number and turns out it's a scam. Stay clear of it. I’ve reported it as fraud already.Auto Trader9 yearsJust like others, I got a message after posting on Gumtree asking me to email them. They replied saying they’d send a courier to collect the item and pay via PayPal because they’re in a wheelchair. The problem is they can "pay," collect the stuff, then later say it never showed up or was faulty, and PayPal usually sides with the buyer and refunds them. Totally sounds like a scam. Same “Michelle” name everyone’s talking about. That’s why Gumtree advises meeting buyers face to face. Don’t trust these types!MichelleGumtree9 yearsMate i got a message from someone really interested in renting my place. They told me to get in touch with them at ( ann00kathy AT gmail DOT com ) and said not to reply here. Thought id share in case anyones had similar. The call came from a Glasgow number +44 141 280 7229. Seems a bit fishy to me.GumtreeGlasgow9 yearsGot a message through Gumtree asking me to drop an email to [email protected], then I got this odd reply: Thanks for getting back so quick! Please mark this as sold and cancel any other viewings, I’m buying it for my kid. I’m happy to pay your full asking price. I’ve read the ad and I’m totally happy with it. Could you possibly send some pictures? Unfortunately, I can’t come see or collect it myself because I’m deaf and use a wheelchair after a stroke. But I have a courier who will pick it up from wherever suits you. I can only pay through PayPal and I’ll cover all the fees. Please send me your PayPal email and the pickup address so I can tell my courier. Waiting for your reply... This is definitely a PayPal scam, don’t share any info!Gumtree9 yearsGot a message on Gumtree from [email protected][###] 01412807229 asking me to reply via email to [email protected][###] They then asked for my PayPal details. This is definitely a PayPal scam - don’t share any info with them and make sure to block straight away.Gumtree9 years[email protected][###]. Got the same story - they want the scooter listed, say theyll pay without seeing it, cant visit because theyre away overseas and all that. Total scam!9 yearsGot a text on my landline about a car we’re trying to sell, with an email attached. Definitely steer clear of that one, it smells dodgy!9 yearsGot a message out of the blue saying 'hey we crossed paths earlier, want to go out?' Seriously? No thanks!!!!9 yearsSteer clear of [email protected][###], ringing from 01412807229. Same story - trying to buy a car with a Chinese address, promises of full payment. Total scam. I’ve alerted Paypal and my bank!9 yearsThis number started sending me scary messages saying they know my identity and my address. Quite unsettling!9 yearsReceived the exact same message and email right after. Totally a scam. Never give them your PayPal or any other info!!!RefrainPayPal9 yearsThis number messaged me as well as another one, +441183100422, with the same text saying, ‘Hello, please reply to my personal email ( [email protected][###]) to check if your van is still for sale?’ I got back to the email, and they said they were in the RAF and would send the price - but didn’t actually say what it was! Then they said they’d arrange collection but asked for my PayPal info. The email kept pushing PayPal, which made me suspicious straight away. I was selling a caravan on a couple of sites, so not sure where they snagged my details from.RAF9 yearsResponding to a car ad I posted on Gumtree, this number texted me asking for extra info. When I replied by email, they said they'd send someone to collect the car but wanted to pay through Paypal. Then they asked for my bank details. Clearly a scam, so watch out and don’t get caught!GumtreePayPal9 yearsGot a message about my Gumtree listing from a person calling herself Caroline Pope. She said she was deaf and used a wheelchair, and wanted to get the item for her cousin. After sorting the price, she then asked me to send £285 in cash to a Western Union account under the name Qioa Zhang in China. Be careful with this one, they’re just trying to scam you out of money.Caroline PopeWestern UnionQioa ZhangChina9 yearsJust got a text from this number asking what the final price was for a Gumtree ad and telling me to email that address. Seems like loads of others have had the same, judging by the comments on here! [email protected][###] 01412807229Gumtree9 yearsThey said they'd buy my car without even checking it out first. Told me not to use PayPal, but they were fine with me sending the money through BACS.PayPalBACS9 yearsSomeone got in touch about my Gumtree listing and asked me to send an email. Decided to look up the number first and it definitely looks dodgy. Didn't bother going ahead with it - just can't be bothered wasting my time on this rubbish.Gumtree9 yearsI was trying to rent out a spare room at mine and ended up nearly getting done over by this woman named Kathy. She claimed she'd send a certain sum into my bank, but only after I covered this supposed cost to ship her bags via Western Union. She said she was working on an oil rig out in New Zealand or something like that. Total con, no doubt. They even have a dodgy ID showing the name Katherine Ann Weir from Manassas, Virginia - and get this, they're actually from Glasgow. Watch yourselves with these lot, definitely dodgy!KathyWestern UnionNew ZealandKatherine Ann WeirManassasVirginiaGlasgow9 yearsWatch out, total con artists pretending to be PayPal! Don’t get caught up in their trap.PayPal9 yearsWatch out on Gumtree, it's a con! They ask for PayPal payments and end up ripping people off, really dodgy stuff.GumtreePayPal9 yearsHey, I’m Bradley. Could you please contact my husband at [email protected][###] about the cost of your bike or scooter? He’s quite keen. Feels like Gumtree’s always trying to keep us guessing, doesn’t it?BradleyGumtree9 yearsFrom what I've seen, they often go after Gumtree ads, especially if it’s about baby stuff. They can be pretty annoying, flooding you with loads of slightly different messages. Honestly, it makes me not want to put up any ads there at all!Gumtree9 yearsGot a text saying he got my number from a mate and wants to have a chat? Honestly, how do these people even get hold of our digits? Would love to understand that.9 yearsI've been receiving some pretty nasty text threats on my phone, and they even got my name and address right. I actually know who’s behind it, but I’m baffled how they’re managing to send from this number since they’re living all the way in England.England9 yearsGot a text after listing my pram on Gumtree sayin, "Hi, is your pram still up for grabs? Please reply with your final price to my email [email protected][###]". Didn't trust it so I just blocked the number.Gumtree9 yearsComplete rip-off! I responded to an ad on Gumtree and got an email that seemed to be from 'PayPal' saying the money was in my account. It looked legit, but it was fake. Fortunately I didn't get tricked but I totally get how others might. Just be cautious and always log into your actual PayPal to verify stuff instead of trusting emails.GumtreePayPal9 yearsYet another dodgy number trying to scam people. Wish I could track down these pests for good.9 yearsReceived a suspicious text asking "Is your wedding dress still up for sale? Please reply with your final price to my email [email protected][###]" I replied thinking it was genuine at first, but then they said they were disabled and insisted on paying through PayPal. Got an identical scam message from a different number too, 01183100422. Beware, they try to trick you into paying for courier fees claiming they’ll pay you, but in the end, you never get the money. Don’t get caught out!9 yearsAsked if the car was available then got told to email [email protected][###] to chat more. From what I’m reading here, it seems pretty obvious it’s a scam.9 yearsSomeone contacted me about a bike I had up for sale on Gumtree, giving this number and asking me to confirm by email. They said they were abroad and would pick up the bike after the PayPal payment cleared. Turns out it’s a scam! You’ll end up losing both your bike and the cash because once PayPal realises the money came from a stolen card, the payment gets reversed. Be really careful with buyers like this - it’s a complete trap!GumtreePayPal9 yearsGot a text from this number replying to a Gumtree ad, but it’s a classic scam. They claim to have covered the shipping fees and then say you gotta pay the courier directly. Usually they try to use Worldpay or some sort of untraceable payment way. It’s an old trick but obviously still works for them somehow.Gumtree9 yearsGot a message right after I put my car on eBay saying "Is the Volvo still available? Please email me at [email protected][###] for a smoother chat and speedy sale." Totally a scam, so I blocked them straight away!9 yearsNo clue who that was.9 yearsLooking for puppies!9 yearsI put an ad up on Gumtree and got a message saying to cancel all other viewings because they wanted it for their granddaughter. Apparently, they can’t come themselves due to a disability and had a stroke, so they’re saying they’ll send a courier to pick it up and pay via PayPal only. Seems really fishy - I've been getting scam emails from [email protected][###]. Just thought I’d share in case anyone else comes across this.Gumtree9 yearsI put something up for sale on gumtree and got an email from someone looking to buy it without even checking it out first. They told me they'd just transfer the cash into my bank account. Total scam, so watch out and don’t fall for it!Gumtree9 yearsJust a heads up, this number is definitely a scam. Better not to answer or get back to it!9 yearsGot a text from this number today after I posted an ad on Autotrader for a campervan. They said they wanted to pay through PayPal without even viewing the van and asked me to share my PayPal info! Told me to email natmillerson5@gmailf###] and sent a typical scam message. They claimed to be a serviceman stationed overseas, buying the van unseen as a present. A quick search showed loads of identical messages dating back to 2013. Definitely a scam.AutotraderPayPal9 yearsSelling something on Gumtree and this person asks me to email mellajones.scam! Sounds dodgy to me, not sure what’s going on with that. Beware!Gumtree9 yearsJust got a message telling me to get in touch with them and they've dropped an email for me to send some details over.9 yearsDodgy characters seem to be thriving on platforms like Gumtree and eBay these days. It's rather baffling, isn't it? I mean, why on earth would someone ring up from Glasgow just to inquire about a price that's clearly stated in the advert? It’s as if common sense has taken a holiday!GumtreeeBayGlasgow9 yearsThis is definitely a scam, better just block and forget about it!9 yearsCalls non stop, better to just ignore it!9 yearsGot a dodgy caller from Gumtree attempting to buy things but sounded like a total scammer.GumtreePayPalRefrain9 yearsI sent a message on Gumtree about a car I’m selling and got an email address to get in touch with. Seems like it could be a dodgy number, probably a scam.Gumtree9 yearsGot scammed through gumtree and paypal - now had to block the number.Gumtree9 yearsGot a call about something I supposedly had for sale and they wanted an email. Felt a bit off, but I went ahead and sent one out of curiosity. Things quickly got a bit ridiculous after that. I then googled the number and found myself here.Google9 yearsI just got the same message. It said, hello. If your furniture is still available, please contact my wife at lyulyumeng012@gmailf###]. She's the one interested in buying it.9 yearsThey wanted to know if my caravan was still available, then asked me to get in touch through my personal email sottedtanner@gmaill###]9 yearsThere’s defo some app you can download that lets you generate a number to call and text from. It showed up as Glasgow but it was actually my ex since I had his usual number blocked! So yeah, it’s clearly someone trying to hide their identity.Glasgow9 yearsGot a text from this number saying: "Hi, if your furniture is still for sale please contact my wife at lyulyumeng012@gmaili###] she’s the interested party." I replied asking "Which furniture?" but no response since. Figured I’d look up the number and found loads of other people reporting odd calls and texts. I actually posted something unrelated (not furniture) on Gumtree last night, so I’m guessing they might be linked. Didn’t click on the email link just in case it’s dodgy or could infect my phone. Going to delete the message and block the number now.Gumtree9 yearsI dropped them a text to check if the thing I was trying to sell was still available and gave them my email for contact. Seems dodgy though, if they were legit they would’ve just called. Definitely feels like a scam to me.9 yearsGot a message from that number, asking if the item was still up for grabs and gave me an email to reach them on.9 yearsThey told me to get in touch by email at eechat1 @gmail[###] instead of calling back this number.9 yearsI got a message asking whether I was still trying to sell my car, and strangely, it had all the info I’d listed and even an email address included. Honestly, after reading some of the other comments here, I’m quite doubtful about the whole thing.9 yearsgot two calls back to back but didn’t pick up, then got 3 texts, two were just 'hello' and the last one was 'speak bitch'. if i were you, i’d just block the number.9 yearsThey called a couple times but said nowt. Ended up blocking the number.9 yearsCan someone please block this number? They’re scammers and have been threatening people.9 yearsGot a text from a number just saying "tic toc". I rang back but there was no caller ID and it just went to voicemail. Really wish these sorts of numbers could be blocked.9 yearsThis number keeps ringing my ex's old landline. I can hear what sounds like a busy call centre - people typing away or chatting on other lines in the background. It's really annoying and should honestly be blocked.9 yearsthis number keeps ringing me and when I answer no ones there, then they just hang up. so frustrating!10 yearsgot a weird text from this number asking if i wanna "hang out" since they got an empty house next week. been checking out what others said about it and it honestly doesn’t sound like a scam? feeling a bit puzzled tbh!10 yearsquite intimidating tbhSubmit Your Own Report (0141 280 7229)
