Phone number ☎️ 01462480716 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance from scammers, mainly based in India or Pakistan, using the same phone number for months on end. They often employ recorded messages warning of unauthorised or suspicious charges on cards, sometimes involving big sums or Amazon payments. The calls are frequently robo messages and try to trick recipients into pressing numbers or engaging, even though many do not fall for it. Despite multiple complaints, this number apparently hasn’t been blocked, possibly due to profitability for telecoms or scammers. The callers can be quite aggressive, with some even resorting to swearing when hung up on. Though many find it obviously fake, these scams continue because they must still trick some victims regularly.

3 yearsBlimey! This is nuts! I reckon my phone’s caught the attention of these dodgy Indian scammers now. They called me twice today from the same number. What’s mad is they don’t even bother hiding the spoofed digits - it’s been identical for over half a year! Makes me wonder why the phone companies haven’t blocked it yet. Maybe it’s making them a tidy penny? And seriously, how are they slipping past all those call blockers?India3 yearsUgh, those idiot scammers from India are at it again! It's the same bloody number I got called from like 4 days back, but this time the robo message was different, talking about £600 for Amazon and £1100 for some overseas transfer. Honestly, these lot are unbelievable. It's pretty sad though, 'cause you gotta figure folks still fall for this nonsense or else they wouldn’t keep on doing it!Amazon3 yearsJust got another call at 11:55 this morning from those annoying Indian scammers saying there’s been some “unauthorised charges” on my Visa card - which I don’t even own. Plus, my bank doesn’t have my landline on file at all. This must be the seventh time in four months they’ve tried this number… and it’s never worked before. Honestly, if it failed six times, why bother trying again? My number’s ex-directory, not used for making calls out, and I’m registered with the TPS to block these sorts of calls.Telephone Preference Service3 yearsGot a call with an automated woman’s voice telling me that £600 was withdrawn from my bank and £1000 was gonna be sent overseas. She said to press ‘1’ if I wanted to stop these payments. That was on 10th November 2023.3 yearsGot a call about some fake charges on my Amazon and eBay accounts. Total scam trying to trick me into giving my details. Watch out, it’s a common con.AmazoneBay3 yearsOnce again, I'm getting those annoying calls from the same scammers in India or Pakistan, all with their nonsense about "unauthorised charges on your credit card." This is the sixth time they've phoned me. I never fell for their rubbish before, so why do they keep bothering me? Probably because they're clueless. Clearly, there are plenty of gullible folks out there for these dodgy yobs to make a few quid; otherwise, they’d have given up by now.IndiaPakistan3 yearsIt’s been about three months since those scammers from India last rang me. Before that, they’d call me roughly every month or so. They always use the same fake number, which is baffling. You’d think BT or whoever manages that number would’ve shut it down by now, but I suppose they’re raking in enough cash to keep it going. They were trying that old “Two strange Visa transactions” line again.BT3 yearsSounds like a payment scam to me. The caller said something about money being taken from my account. When I told him that he should already know my name, he just ended the call. Really fishy behaviour.3 yearsI got two calls on the 31st from this number... you'd expect that once they realised I wasn't interested, they'd take me off their list, but nope! Proper pain, really. The fact they keep ringing must mean they're actually getting through to some folks who answer them. So, who’s the idiot here, I wonder?3 yearsOnce again, those dumb scammers from India called me. It was one of those automated calls claiming there were two weird transactions on my card linked to "bank security." They told me to press 1 to accept or 2 to talk to a security expert. I hit 2 and got some bloke who claimed he was from Visa. But I told him I don’t even use Visa, I’m with Mastercard. Right after that, he just cut me off. Typical scam attempt!Visa3 yearsThe same idiot who rang me about half an hour ago just called back again - used the exact same spiel but this time he actually swore before hanging up!3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Amazon, warning me about big, shady charges about to hit my card. Definitely a scam trying to trick you.Amazon3 yearsGot a voicemail saying there was some weird activity on my card but they didn’t mention which one. I looked through all my card accounts and couldn’t find anything suspicious at all. Definitely a scam.Submit Your Own Report (01462 480716)
