Reports on phone number 01617110285
6 yearsTypical car crash scam, like the ones about your recent accident.6 yearsI keep getting calls for someone named ‘Allen’, but that’s not me at all. Seems like my number is tied to that name somewhere in some list. Anyway, I just end the call immediately and block the number. Whenever they ask for Allen, I can tell straight away it’s not a genuine call.Allen7 yearsGot a call from 0161 236 0297 saying they were from Aviva insurance, mentioned my name, address and number, then asked for my DOB which I didn’t share. Definitely felt like a scam, the woman with an Asian accent just ended the call after that.Aviva7 yearsgot loads of irritating calls from 0161 (Manchester) numbers lately, just ignored and blocked them all!Manchester7 yearsJust like everyone else, I had trouble with this number. I blocked it and then they called from a similar but different one. Probably best to stay clear of them!7 yearsGot calls from 01617110285 saying I’m due a refund, told them to post the cheque then ended the call. Then 5 mins later, another call from 01614656630 with the same story, I just hung up straight away.7 yearsGot a ring from this number just now, the person asked for me but called me by my dad’s name. When I said I don’t sound like a bloke, she got all short and claimed I didn’t say anything at all when I answered, even though I clearly said hello! We kind of went in circles and she refused to say who she was until I gave her my full name, which I refused. When I asked if she was with TalkTalk, she said no, she’s from Reliance First. I asked where that was, and she just muttered “you heard love.” I ended the call and blocked the number straight away!!!TalkTalkReliance7 yearsDefinitely dodgy scammers, looks like some kind of organised group. They use loads of different tricks and tales that should make you wary. Best not to get involved at all!!! How they manage to get hold of our numbers is beyond me. I’d recommend changing your phone number fairly often. At least every 5 years, especially if you keep getting loads of calls.7 yearsThe person on the phone kept trying to get my personal details, but as soon as I asked questions, they just ended the call! Ive blocked the number loads of times but it looks like they keep getting a slightly different one to ring me back.7 yearsGot a call a few moments ago but didn’t pick up.
