Phone number ☎️ 01617680461 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation targeting elderly individuals, often posing as a health or senior goods company. Callers, typically with South Asian accents, pressure recipients for personal and bank details under the guise of confirming orders or delivering packages. They use outdated or deceased relatives' names to appear legitimate, causing distress and confusion. Victims report aggressive and harassing behaviour, including repeated calls despite objections. The scam appears linked to overseas call centres and preys on vulnerable people, with no clear business name disclosed. Authorities and trading standards have been informed, but it remains a widespread issue. Visitors are strongly advised not to share any personal information and to block and report these calls.

6 yearsWhat a bunch of charlatans! It appears these calls are originating from India, with the sole intention of conning unsuspecting individuals into signing up for some dodgy service. Quite infuriating, really!India11 yearsI’ve just managed to persuade my elderly mum to make a couple of card payments, only to find out that ‘Sante Seniors’ - a so-called French firm - delivered items that were nothing like what she paid for. It’s absolutely disgraceful how they seem to be preying on vulnerable seniors, all while our personal information is being traded globally! What a racket!Sante Seniors11 yearsI got a call from this number earlier today, and they were asking for my husband using his full name, which was quite surprising since he has been gone for over 17 years now. The caller had quite a heavy accent, and I struggled to catch their name. It's baffling how they even obtained such information! Once I mentioned that no one by that name resides here, they suddenly went all silent, prompting me to end the conversation.11 yearsI’m continually bombarded with calls from this number, and it’s always the same - a woman with an Indian accent insisting on speaking to MRS PLATT HAROLD. Can you believe it? She's oblivious to the fact that Mr. Harold Platt was my late husband. She rambles on about a product I supposedly ordered, which is absolutely nonsensical, and then she presses me for my bank card details to verify a number she refuses to disclose. It's infuriating! Her tone turns rather confrontational the moment I hesitate to share any information. What a nuisance! - Caller: Indian womanHarold PlattCaller11 yearsI've been absolutely appalled by the relentless attempts to extract bank details from my elderly mother-in-law, who’s 80, under the guise of a festive delivery. They’ve called her four times today, and after I lost my temper, they still had the nerve to ring back! I've already lodged a complaint with trading standards, though I doubt it’ll lead to any real change. It's utterly disgraceful to prey on those who are vulnerable.11 yearsMy elderly mother, who’s 91, received a phone call from this number trying to peddle some sort of medication to her.11 yearsThis is an issue that requires immediate attention. It appears they're preying on vulnerable seniors, such as my mother. It’s high time for the authorities or the government to intervene.11 yearsSeemed to be a number from the UK, but I suspect I ended up chatting with a call centre abroad, likely in Pakistan. A chap with a strong Pakistani accent wanted to have a word with the previous tenant of my residence - an elderly gentleman. Honestly, I find these unsolicited calls from overseas quite tedious, especially when the language barrier makes it even more of a slog to follow the conversation. It was evident the caller was trying to target the old bloke who once lived here. In the end, I explained that his English was quite difficult to comprehend, and promptly hung up before blocking the number.UKPakistan11 yearsMy dear elderly aunt was pestered with five phone calls this morning, all while her caregiver was attending to her. They were insisting on her bank details to “facilitate” a package delivery. Thankfully, the carer called me, and I promptly did some digging online to verify their authenticity. As expected, it was a scam! How ridiculous!11 yearsI had a rather distressing experience with an aggressive sales call that targeted my 85-year-old grandmother. They were quite intrusive, pressuring her for personal information and pushing a sale she clearly wasn’t interested in. I had to step in and confront the caller, but to my surprise, they refused to disclose their name or the company they represented. When I requested they refrain from calling her again, the rude representative smugly replied, “I’ll call back this evening.” Naturally, I felt compelled to return the call and lodged a complaint. Unfortunately, I’m still none the wiser about their identity, as they are deliberately withholding that information.11 yearsReceived a trio of calls in quick succession this morning from someone claiming to be "Jason Griffin," representing the "Health Senior Company." These bottom-feeders have contacted me previously, attempting to extract credit card information under the guise of "confirming" details for processing an "order" and organising delivery. They're incredibly relentless and I can't help but think they prey on vulnerable individuals with their deceitful tactics. PLEASE BE VIGILANT AND REFRAIN FROM PROVIDING ANY DETAILS TO THESE DESPICABLE CHARACTERS. I'm on a quest to uncover who they truly are and put an end to their fraudulent activities. - Caller: The alleged Jason Griffin from the purported Health Senior Company.Jason GriffinHealth Senior CompanyBE VIGILANTREFRAINCaller11 yearsI received a call this morning at precisely 9:25 on the 20th of October, 2015. The individual on the other end inquired about Mrs Baguley. I regretfully informed them that my mother had passed on quite some time ago. Instead of expressing any empathy, they abruptly hung up! It's rather galling considering they were the ones who initiated the call to my number, to begin with. Curiosity got the better of me, so I attempted to return the call only to be met with a recorded message from a bustling call centre. Apparently, all the operators were tied up with other calls.
