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. The number appears linked to spoofing activity involving legitimate local businesses like takeaways, which are being misused to mask the true source of the calls. Multiple calls in a short period without leaving voicemails are common, leading many to believe this is part of a scam, possibly involving phone cloning attempts. Recipients are advised to be cautious, avoid engaging with the callers, and consider blocking the number to prevent harassment.

3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with British Gas, but the address they mentioned didn’t match mine at all. Definitely seemed like a dodgy call!British Gas3 yearsGot a few calls from this number, said it was a Muslim charity calling me. It rang about four times and the number seemed to be from Yorkshire. I was tied up and only answered quickly to say I couldn’t talk. Later I looked it up and it showed as a takeaway in Manchester or Yorkshire, not the charity they claimed. Sounded like a dodgy call, especially with the weird accent they had. When I tried calling back, I got a recorded message from some energy company, which made me even more suspicious. Lucky I didn’t get caught out! Blocked the number straight away.YorkshireMuslimManchesterGoogle3 yearsKept getting calls claiming to be from British Gas, and when I asked a few questions, the person on the line got quite rude and just ended the call. Definitely seems like a scam to me.British Gas3 yearsI kept ignoring the calls since I don't know anyone in Manchester, but they rang me nine times between 3 and 5 in the afternoon. Honestly, feels like they're just pestering me!Manchester3 yearsSomeone rang claiming to be from EON and acted really strange, dragging out a big ‘ooooookaaaaayyyy’ in this super slow, calm tone like they were up to something dodgy. Right after I ended the call, the same person tried again but with a different number - 02073812322 - which belongs to a takeaway in London. Pretty clear it was spoofed, poor takeaway just used as a cover.EONLondon3 yearsI got three calls from this number in just an hour and it felt really dodgy to me. I reckon it’s someone trying to clone your phone. Wouldn't recommend picking up. If they were legit, surely they’d leave a message by now? Bit fishy if you ask me...Submit Your Own Report (0161 524 3178)
