Phone number ☎️ 01612430467 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation, often featuring men with South Asian accents falsely claiming to represent NHS, BT, or telephone service providers. Callers aggressively promote medical alert devices or attempt to confirm direct debit and bank details, frequently using intimidation or deception. Calls may come from local UK numbers but are typically spoofed or originate from abroad, with silent or dropped calls common. Users are warned not to engage, avoid providing personal information, and never call back unknown numbers due to potential additional scams. Blocking numbers is ineffective as scammers rotate numbers frequently. Reporting all scam attempts via official police channels, such as Action Fraud, is strongly advised to aid investigation and protect others.

2 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Asian accent asking if I was (boss’s name). The number showed up as private, so I just blocked it and let my boss know straight away.2 yearsGot a call from a bloke speaking with an Asian accent, claiming he worked for the NHS and that I required some sort of safety gadget. I asked him where he was ringing from, and he didn’t say Manchester or anywhere near it. After I started messing about asking who he thought I was and where I lived, he just ended the call.NHSManchester3 yearsGot a call from 01612430467, bloke sounded Asian and said his name was Jason. He was telling me I was eligible for some Medical Emergency gadget in case I fell or had an accident. Bit of a weird one cos I’m pretty sure I never signed up for anything like that. Said thanks but no thanks and wrapped up the call nicely.Jason3 yearsTried calling 01612430467 but no reply.3 yearsI experienced something similar. The phone just kept ringing and ringing without a pause. I had no clue whose number it was, so I decided to let it be.3 yearsClaimed I was eligible for some medical assistance. The caller had an Indian accent and promptly hung up on me.3 yearsI would like to bring to attention an unauthorised deduction that has occurred from an unknown banking account.3 yearsGot a call from 0161 243047, no word said at all. Just wasted my time, so blocked them straight away 🚫. People should find something better to do instead of messing about! Proper time wasters, honestly.3 yearsTotal scam alert. They say they have some fancy medical emergency gadget that can spot fires in your home too!! The person who called was really pushy and not polite at all.3 yearsAnswered the phone and then the call just dropped straight away.3 yearsThey just kept raving about kitchen gadgets and stuff, it was a bit much really.3 yearsOh yeah, sure my phone service is "fine".... not!!!3 yearsGot a call from a Manchester number today, 19th Jan 2023. Didn't bother answering and they left no voicemail.Manchester3 yearsI checked the phone number on this site first, so I decided not to pick up.3 yearsHad no clue who the caller was or what they were after, so I’ve already blocked the number. Just another annoying ring.3 yearsI received a rather concerning phone call on Saturday morning from a chap identifying himself as Peter, claiming to be affiliated with BT. He called my parents from the number 0161 243 0467, threatening that their landline would be disconnected, despite the fact that they consistently settle their bills via direct debit. He had a surprising amount of personal information about them, which unnerved my mother, leading her to reluctantly disclose her bank card information. Worried about the whole situation, I decided to look up the number online, where I encountered numerous negative reviews. I quickly escorted her to the bank to cancel her card, and thankfully, no money was taken. However, I was alarmed to learn that "Peter" reached out again today from another number, 0203 154 8055. Upon attempting to call this new number back, I was greeted with a message stating it was a market research line and that my call couldn’t be processed. Feeling uneasy, I contacted BT directly to report this dubious number and discuss Saturday's encounter in detail. As it stands, if you attempt to return calls to these numbers now, they seem to be unresponsive.PeterBT3 yearsNo idea who that was, didn’t pick up the call.3 yearsI received a call from a chap with an Indian accent, stating he was from BT and that my Direct Debit was on the verge of expiring. I promptly told him that was absolute nonsense, and he had the audacity to suggest I shouldn't dispute what he was saying! I wasn't having any of it, so I unleashed a few choice words and cut the line.BTDirect Debit4 yearsI saw the number but wasn’t sure who it was, so I just ignored it.4 yearsThat area code looked familiar but since I don’t have any mates in Manchester, I just ignored the call.Manchester4 yearsGot a call from some housing company claiming they think I've got mould or damp problems. I was like, nope, not true at all! Told them goodbye and good riddance to scammers!5 yearsI received a call from a foreign-accented chap who claimed that we had recently set up a service with BT to block nuisance calls. He proceeded to ask for personal details, including names and our address, which immediately set off alarm bells for me. Things took a turn for the worse when he insisted on verifying our bank details linked to the payment. At that point, I decided to hang up. It's rather concerning, especially considering that we had only just implemented the nuisance call blocking-seems like a rather uncanny coincidence, don't you think?BT5 yearsJust got a call from 01612430467, and it’s a scam operation based in Gurugram, India. I’m actually a private investigator working with the Indian police on cases like this. If you’ve been caught out by these scammers, drop me a message. I can help look into it further, and my fee for the investigation is £50. These fraudsters won’t get away with it if we work together. Cheers!GurugramIndia5 yearsOops, I completely forgot to include my investigation email, it’s [email protected]. Thanks so much once again!5 yearsI got a call from some bloke claiming to be David from my phone company, sayin he could sort out all these spam calls for me. When I asked him who my actual provider was, he just told me to “shut your mouth and be quiet.” Proper rude, wasn’t it?David5 yearsReceived a dodgy call from an unfamiliar accent claiming my direct debit was nearing its expiry. It's evident this is just a sneaky scam from some lowlife trying to pull a fast one.5 yearsGot a call from a dodgy number at 4.20pm on Friday, no idea who it was. Left a message that seemed fishy. I've checked it about 19 times, looks like plenty have had the same sort of calls. Not answering that one again.5 yearsGot a call from someone named Peter who said he was from my phone provider and that my direct debit was going to run out soon and needed updating. When I asked him which company he was with, he couldn’t even get that right. I knew it was dodgy straight away and told him to jog on.Peter5 yearsThe phone kept ringing ages but I didn't pick up cause I had no idea who it was.5 yearsIt rang on for quite a while without anyone picking up, as I didn't recognise the number.5 yearsSome bloke called saying he was from the phone company offering a call blocking service. Then he asked if I pay by direct debit and which bank I use, like Lloyds or Barclays or Natwest. I told him I don’t share bank details over the phone and just hung up. Definitely sounded like a scam to me.LloydsBarclaysNatWest5 yearsI received a call on my landline from this number, and when I picked up, there was complete silence until it disconnected right after I greeted them. I'm convinced it's a dodgy and potentially harmful call. Whatever you do, steer clear of this number! Simply answering it gives the scammers the green light, confirming that your number is active and ripe for their nefarious schemes. You don't want to fall into their trap!5 yearsA chap with a foreign accent called me claiming to be from my phone bill company. He asked if I paid via direct debit, and right away, the alarm bells started ringing. I instantly recognised it as a scam and hung up. It was clear he hadn't a clue who my actual provider is!5 yearsthis guy who spoke super slowly said he was julian from the “call blocking team” at my phone provider, but when I asked which phone service he meant, he kinda fumbled and couldn’t give a straight answer. so i just ended the call.Julian5 yearsDont reply to any of their questions, its definitely a scam. He claimed he worked for my phone provider or something like that. Seriously, what company here in the UK - or anywhere - actually says "I'm from your telephone department"? Sounds fishy to me.UK5 yearsDon’t reply to any of their questions, it's definitely a scam. The person claimed they were from my telephone company. Honestly, which business here in the UK - or anywhere really - would say, “I’m from your telephone department”? Sounds so dodgy to me.UKSubmit Your Own Report (0161 243 0467)
