01615268797 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01615268797 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance scam operation, frequently changing slight digits in the phone number to evade blocking. Callers often claim to assist with car-related finance or insurance claims, using personal details to sound convincing, but drop calls or hang up when challenged. Many victims advise not answering unknown numbers and urge reporting these attempts to official authorities via police and Ofcom channels to help reduce the broader scam problem. Blocking individual numbers offers limited protection since new ones will be used repeatedly. Calls typically involve silence, hang-ups, or aggressive behaviour, frequently linked to bogus PCP or car claim scams. Overall, it is strongly recommended to avoid engagement, block, and report all suspicious calls to aid in combating such fraud.

Got a ring from this number at 7:46pm on a weeknight! I hardly ever pick up if the number isn't saved in my phone. Decided to look it up here instead. Well, you can guess what happened next haha!

I’m really sick of getting constant calls, it’s so annoying!

Another one of those scam calls popped up again. You’d think they’d realise by now that most people just block unknown numbers and don’t pick up. But no, they keep ringing anyway. I’ve had enough, so this one’s straight to blocked now.

Got a text from these scammers first, then they called me about PCP. Would definitely avoid them!

Looks dodgy to me. From what I read here, I didn’t pick up and just blocked the number.

Not sure who it was, but the number looked a lot like one that called me a couple days back, so I just ignored it!

Got a call about some car finance claim with my name, reg and address, but problem is I never bought the car on finance. The moment I questioned them, they just cut the line. It’s clearly a scam. This 0161 number has called me like five or six times already. What a waste of time.

I've been getting calls too from a number starting with 0161526 but the last four numbers keep switching up. They've rung me three times just today. Can't seem to block them properly since those final digits are always different. Same annoying issue here.

Got a call from a guy saying his name was 'John', sounds like he was for some call centre with loads of noise in the background. I told him where to shove it and hung up, then blocked the number straight away.

Got three different numbers all with just one digit swapped, and none of them even ring, just dead quiet 🤬

SCAM alert - PCP Got a call from someone saying they could sort out a car claim for £5000 on a car I’d leased through work ages ago. They kept going on about “your current claim” but honestly, no such thing existed. Ended up ignoring them and just letting them waste time chatting to no one. Guess that’ll cost them more in phone charges than me!

I've been getting calls from this number, or one that’s almost the same except for one digit, pretty much every day. Whenever I pick up, the call just cuts off and nobody talks. After checking online, it seems like it’s some kind of scam, which I suspected. I’m just going to keep blocking these calls from now on.

Got a few calls from this number but they just hung up every time. Honestly, I’ve stopped picking up unknown callers now - if it’s important, they usually leave a voicemail anyway.

Got a call earlier, the number showed up from somewhere in Manchester. The guy said it was about a “claim” I supposedly had for £5500 linked to my car. He even mentioned the make and registration number, then asked for my address. I ended the call straight away. Honestly, it freaked me out how much he seemed to know - even my name! Seriously, stay clear of these people.

I quickly ended the call after just a few seconds, reckon it was one of those car finance scams trying to reel me in.

Over the last few days, I’ve had loads of calls from numbers that are all really close to each other, like just one or two digits different. I don’t pick up at all.

Got a call from this number but when I answered, there was just silence on the other end.

I got a call from a cheeky woman who kept going on about some "claim" related to my car. Thing is, I don't have any claim at all. She tried to get me to say what kind of car I drive, but I just cut her off and ended the call.

I got calls from a few different numbers, and they kept asking way too many personal questions.

Got a call out of the blue, and they didn't bother to leave any message.

Got a call about some £5,500 claim, but when the bloke said the vehicle registration, I told him it wasn’t mine and he just hung up on me straight away.
