Phone number ☎️ 01615243178 👆 is reported as associated with repeated nuisance calls claiming to represent well-known energy companies and charities, but giving false information such as incorrect addresses. Callers often exhibit unusual behaviour, including odd accents and peculiar vocal tones, and become rude or hang up when questioned.

3 yearsReceived a call from someone claiming to represent British Gas, but the address they provided was completely incorrect. Definitely sounds like a scam to me!British Gas3 yearsReceived several calls from this number claiming to represent a Muslim charity. They rang me four times, and according to my online search, it’s actually listed as a takeaway joint in Yorkshire. I was a bit preoccupied at the time, so I just picked up to explain that I was tied up when they mentioned they were from Muslim Aid. It dawned on me afterwards that it was likely a scam-this charity certainly doesn’t have my number and they don’t operate in Manchester or Yorkshire, which is apparently a fast-food establishment according to Google. It’s clearly dodgy! The accent was rather peculiar as well. I didn’t engage for long since I had to keep insisting I was busy. Later on, when I tried returning the call, I was met with a recorded message from an energy company. Thank goodness I didn’t chat with them too long! I’ve since blocked the number!YorkshireMuslimManchesterGoogle3 yearsI've been receiving persistent calls claiming to be from British Gas, and honestly, the attitude of the callers is quite shocking! When I tried to ask them a few questions, they just cut the line without so much as a goodbye. It’s obvious this isn’t legitimate; it feels like a scam to me!British Gas3 yearsI refused to answer the phone as I don’t know anyone in Manchester, yet they tried to reach me a staggering nine times between 3 and 5 in the afternoon. This definitely feels like some sort of harassment!Manchester3 yearsI received a call claiming to be from EON, but the whole thing felt rather off. The caller elongated "oookkkkkaaaaayyyyy" in a rather eerie, drawn-out manner; it was as if they were up to something a bit dodgy. Just moments after I ended that peculiar conversation, I got another call from the same individual-but this time it came from a different number, 02073812322, which turned out to be linked to a takeaway in London. Clearly, this was some form of spoofing. It's rather unfortunate for the takeaway, being dragged into this mess as an unwitting scapegoat.EONLondon3 yearsThis number has buzzed my phone thrice within an hour! Seems rather dodgy, doesn’t it? I suspect it could be a scammer attempting to clone your device. Best to steer clear of this call. If they were genuine, wouldn’t they take a moment to leave a voicemail? Quite peculiar, if you ask me...Submit Your Own Report (0161 524 3178)
