I got calls from this number twice, once back on 21/3/22 and again on 2/11/21, but they never left any message. Don't know who it was.

Got a call from 01617680145, some bloke claiming to be from Tarquin Walton or smth, said I could get a tax refund from HMRC. He knew my name but it all felt dodgy to me. Definitely seemed like a scam.

Got a really annoying call from 01617680145 asking if we'd already used up our personal savings allowance this year and what steps we could take. The person on the line wouldn't quit talking and ignored us when we said we didn’t want to talk since it was a random call. We told them to delete our number from their records for good (and I’m on the TPS as well) but he warned that we'd get loads more calls since we didn’t play along. Honestly, they just don’t understand that no really means no.

On the 17th of March 2022, we received a call from this number as well. It’s nothing more than a scam. The person on the other end rambled on about some government programme where we could supposedly claim money, and it all sounded rather fishy. To top it off, you could easily tell he was from the sub-continent, given his strong accent.

The call ended just as I was about to pick up. I looked up the number here and decided it’s best to block it now.

this rude lady rang me up claiming I had some tax refund waiting, I told her it sounded dodgy, she insisted it wasn’t a scam. I said I wasn’t interested in any money from her. Then she asked if she could verify my email, but I refused to give it out. I asked her to send something by post instead, but she said they don't send letters. So I just hung up.

Got a call from someone saying they were Wilson Tarquin, but as far as I know, they aren't even operating anymore. They started going on about some sort of payment charges refund. When I asked questions, the answers were pretty dodgy and full of excuses. One red flag was them stressing they didn’t need my bank info - like that was supposed to make me feel safe or something. Yeah right, total scam in my opinion! Lol.

Some bloke called himself Wilson Tarquin or something, who apparently isn’t even in business anymore? He was going on about refunds and extra charges or whatever. When I asked a few questions, he just started making all kinds of excuses. The dead giveaway was him being all “don’t worry, I don’t need your bank info” - yeah, right, like that’s meant to be reassuring! Proper dodgy if you ask me.

Seems I’ve had a run-in with someone pretending to be Wilson Tarquin, a name I’m told is no longer in business. It all smelled rather fishy, with this whole rigmarole about recouping payment fees. When I probed a bit further, they became rather evasive. One major red flag was how overly eager they were to assure me that my bank details weren’t needed, emphasising how that meant everything was ‘perfectly secure’. Really? Made me chuckle, to be honest!

Since I didn’t recognise the number, I just didn’t pick up. I figure if it’s something important, the person will leave a voicemail anyway.

Got a call about a car crash I supposedly had. I didn’t pick up, but when I rang back, there was some robotic message saying who they were. I reckon they’re those injury claim folks looking to get me to sign up for compensation from an old accident. Cold calls like that just aren’t for me!
