Phone number ☎️ 01613940238 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number posing as representatives from eBay or Amazon, claiming fraudulent orders were made on users’ accounts. Callers often use poor English and various accents, insisting on confirming personal or bank details, usually to trick recipients into revealing sensitive information. Victims rarely have genuine accounts linked to these platforms, confirming the calls are bogus. The scammers frequently call back after hang-ups, displaying aggressive tactics. Some have detected dodgy automated messages encouraging pressing a button to opt out, which appears suspicious and potentially harmful. Users are strongly advised not to disclose any details, to hang up immediately, and to block the number. Authorities and banks are unlikely to be involved; it is a well-known telephone fraud targeting vulnerable individuals.
Reports on phone number 01613940238
2 yearsI received a dodgy message claiming to be from eBay, asking for my debit card info to supposedly cancel an order I never even made. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!2 yearsReceived a call purporting to be from eBay, attempting to obtain my debit card information. Absolutely steer clear of using a debit card for such requests!2 yearsI just received a rather peculiar call from this number, claiming they needed me to verify a purchase of trainers made via eBay today. I clearly informed them that I've never engaged with eBay, as it’s not a platform I use. Nevertheless, they persisted in insisting that I had indeed placed an order and pressed me for my bank details. They threatened that if I didn't confirm, the order would be cancelled. I firmly stated that they could go ahead and cancel it, then promptly hung up. I've since contacted my bank's fraud department, and they've assured me that no transactions have been made. They've advised me to completely disregard any further communication from this number.2 yearsGot a call from a lady with a foreign accent claiming to be from eBay. Something felt off straight away, so I told her I’m not interested in any scams and just ended the call. Definitely seemed dodgy to me.2 yearsTotally a scam, mate. Just hang up right away and don’t share any of your info with them.2 yearsI got a call from 0161 384 9238 today. The lady on the line said someone had tried to place a £200 order on my eBay account and asked me to look at an email they supposedly sent me. When I asked her what email she was talking about, she just told me to check anyway - not very convincing at all. I kept her going with different replies for like 15 minutes before she finally gave up and hung up. Just a heads up to be careful with calls like this!2 yearsGot a call from a lady speaking with an Indian accent - that made me wary right away. She pretended to be from eBay, rambling on about some account I supposedly had. Problem is, I’ve never even bothered with eBay! Total scam, no doubt. I just told her off and hung up. Really makes me wonder, with a British PM of Indian descent, why can’t they push the Indian authorities (who are likely on the take) to crack down on these con artists?2 yearsThis number has rung me several times claiming I made a huge purchase on Amazon, which is total nonsense. I never ordered anything, so it was clear they were trying to scam me. Today, the caller rang again but switched it up, saying I’d bought something off eBay, so I just ended the call. They immediately called back, saying there was no reason to hang up, but I told them to stop calling because they’re obviously up to no good and then I slammed the phone down. How on earth do these dodgy folks get hold of my number?Amazon3 yearsWhat really stood out about the person calling from this number was how relentless she was. I ended up hanging up on her four times, yet she didn’t give up and rang me straight after every time!3 yearsMy 89-year-old mum’s phone rang and I picked it up for her, didn’t bother to say it wasn’t her. The bloke started on about my Amazon account and my email, which is odd because she doesn’t have either. I told him straight up he was making it up, no email or Amazon here. He got a bit sniffy, claiming I’d changed my email and there was some scam about my money being at risk, said it was urgent. I just chuckled, said I haven’t got any money anyway, and he cut me off. Definitely wasn’t a proper British accent either.Amazon3 yearsI got a call from someone with pretty broken English claiming to be from Amazon. They said there was a purchase made with my account for a Cartier watch worth like £1,000. Seemed a bit odd to me.Amazon6 yearsCalled the number back and got an automated voice saying something like, "hi this is renew life, press one to unsubscribe." I pressed one then went ahead and blocked it. Felt like some shady life insurance scam that might keep bugging you.6 yearsI rang the number back and caught only part of a message that tried to say which company it was from, but I couldn’t make out the name. The message said to press one if you want to stop getting calls. Seemed really sketchy, so I decided not to press anything.6 yearsI got a call from someone asking for a mate of mine. When I asked if they could pass on my number so my friend could ring back, they said they’d ring me instead when my friend was nearby. My friend was sitting right next to me at the time, and when I mentioned I wasn’t sure when they’d be available, the caller just hung up suddenly!! Just watch out for this sort of thing. COOo6 yearsI called them back using a hidden number and it was pretty dodgy, no doubt about it. The company name they mentioned was impossible to make out, and the only choice they gave was to press 1 to stop them from ringing you again. Sketchy af fo sho!Submit Your Own Report (0161 394 0238)
