01616761945 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01616761945 👆 is reported as a persistent and dangerous scam targeting individuals by falsely claiming to be from the National Crime Agency or HMRC. Callers use automated messages stating that the recipient’s National Insurance number is involved in illegal activity, threatening suspension, arrest, or asset seizure, and urging pressing a number to speak to an officer. These calls often feature poor English or unnatural tones and may originate from overseas call centres. Genuine agencies like HMRC do not contact individuals by phone about National Insurance matters, instead sending official letters. Recipients are advised never to provide personal information, to block and report the number, and to remain vigilant against these fraudulent tactics.

This number is DEFINITELY trying to scam you pretending to be from National Insurance. Don't share any details with them! You won't get calls about NI - they always send proper letters from HMRC instead. It's a risky call, so just block and report it right away.

61-676 1942 seems rather odd, doesn't it? (It’s lacking the 01 prefix when attempting to make a call.) The Orion Line Let’s not even mention those call centres; they’re clearly functioning from some underground lair. 👎 No self-respecting HUMAN would ever consider sinking to the level of taking on such a dismal role.

On the 19th of August, 2021, at approximately 09:13, I received a call with a recorded message claiming that my national insurance number had been implicated in suspicious activities. The voice urged me to press one if I wished to connect with an officer regarding this supposed suspension.

Got a call from someone claiming to be with the National Crime Agency, saying my National Insurance was linked to several crimes. When he asked my name, I gave him Mrs Fanny Hardcock. He threatened I'd get arrested. So far, no one’s come for me.

Got a call from someone with a British accent talking about my National Insurance number being suspended. The way they spoke was a bit off, sounded kinda awkward. They warned me I'd get arrested if I didn't press one right away to sort it out. Pretty sure it's a scam.

Got a call claiming to be from the National Crime Agency telling me there’s dodgy stuff going on with my National Insurance number and I’m about to get arrested. They said to press 1 to sort it out. Didn’t press anything and the call just ended.

I got a phone call from this number, and it turned out to be an automated voice claiming to be from the National Crime Agency, accusing me of being involved in fraudulent activities linked to my National Insurance card. Quite alarming, I must say! However, when I tried to return the call, I spoke to a person who didn’t seem to have any affiliation with the agency. It's all rather suspicious if you ask me!

I received a rather concerning call earlier, supposedly from the NCA, which alleged that my national insurance number was at risk of being suspended due to some supposed unlawful actions. They urged me to press one to get connected to an officer, warning me that failing to do so could result in my arrest and confiscation of my assets. Quite the scare tactic, I must say!

Got a call at 8 in the morning with some recorded bloke saying my National Insurance number was tied to some dodgy stuff and if I didn’t hit 1, I’d be nicked. Honestly, total rubbish but it could freak anyone who’s not on the lookout. Absolute scumbags.

I didn't pick up, as I've already barred this number from reaching me. Normally, that does the trick and they stop calling, but for some reason, they persistently keep trying. Quite peculiar, to say the least! A quick search on the internet suggests it’s just another dodgy scam attempt.

I chose not to pick up the call and have since placed the number on my block list. A quick search online indicates it may be a fraudulent caller.

I received a rather dubious call, purporting to be from the NCA regarding supposed illicit activities. They pressured me into pressing ‘1’ and, before I knew it, I was connected to an agent who immediately inquired about my name without even introducing himself. The line was quite shoddy and I suspect the caller was situated in India, as there was a cacophony of noise in the backdrop. They then asked me to spell my name-I started to comply when the call dropped unexpectedly. It’s baffling how they wouldn’t already know who they were contacting or the purpose of their call. Having been scammed several times in the past, I can say with certainty that this is a scam. I urge you to investigate this matter further and put a stop to such fraudulent practices.

I received a rather alarming phone call purporting to be from the NCA, warning me that my national insurance number was on the verge of being suspended due to supposed illegal activity. They insisted I press one to speak to an officer or face arrest and asset confiscation. It struck me as a complete scam, likely a group of individuals based in India masquerading as NCA officials. It seems that those with a contract from 3 Mobile might be particularly targeted, as their call centre operates out of India, and it wouldn't surprise me if there was a data breach involved.
