Phone number ☎️ 01617682598 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation linked to a defunct company formerly involved in PPI claims, targeting individuals with calls about alleged tax refunds and requesting personal details like National Insurance numbers. Callers often use multiple local numbers, leaving no messages and frequently hanging up when answered. Many recipients suspect phishing attempts and recommend not engaging or providing information. The calls are intrusive, with repeated daily attempts despite blocking efforts. Authorities and HMRC phishing teams have been informed, and users are advised to exercise caution, block the numbers, and avoid returning calls or clicking on any links sent via texts. This nuisance reflects a broader trend of fraudulent calls exploiting past financial dealings.
Reports on phone number 01617682598
3 yearsCalls keep coming through, ringing at all hours and from different numbers on separate days.5 yearsNobody uttered a word. I kept silent myself, as I had a hunch it was some sort of trick-the calls always came in at the same hour, from the number 01617682598.6 yearsI almost picked up but decided against it after seeing what others said here. Glad I didn’t bother.6 yearsEven though I have this number blocked on my phone, it still manages to ring about 4 or 5 times during the week. I’ve read other comments here saying the same thing. The callers claim to be from Harringtons Advisory, telling you they’re giving you a tax refund on a PPI claim. Don’t be fooled, that’s rubbish - that company actually went bust after HMRC caught them for dodging tax. Honestly, the police really need to crack down on these scam calls.Harringtons AdvisoryHMRC6 yearsI've been receiving a minimum of two calls daily from the number 0161 768 2598. Quite relentless, to be honest!6 yearsThis number has rung me several times and I haven’t got a clue who it belongs to, so I’ve chosen to ignore it.6 yearsThis number 01617682598 phoned me two times over two days, but there was complete silence both times. I reckon it’s a scam call and I’m not picking up if they call again. I noticed from other comments that it might have something to do with Harrington, a company I dealt with years ago. They went out of business after some court case (said something in the Bolton News). Looks like these scammers might have got hold of some of my info.HarringtonBolton News6 yearsHad a call from someone called Bobby, who said he was ringing from Harrington Advisory - a firm I’ve dealt with before. He mentioned PPI compensation from way back in 2008, which he seemed to know all about, and told me there was another payment waiting. At first, I answered a couple of questions, but then got a bit wary. When he asked for my National Insurance number, I said I’d need to check the paperwork I’d stored away in the loft and that I’d ring him back later. He left me his number as 01617682598.BobbyHarrington AdvisoryNational Insurance6 yearsGot a silent call that hung up after a couple of seconds. Definitely looks like a scam to me.6 yearsRang me four times today, didn’t bother to leave a message though.6 yearsJust got a call from someone saying it’s about taxes but hung up before I could say anything. Definitely a scam, so I blocked the number straight away. Don’t answer these kinds of calls!6 yearsI received a rather dodgy call about some payment concerning my PPI, and they went on about needing extra tax payments to pass on to HMRC. It struck me as fishy, so I promptly hung up the phone. I've now blocked that number entirely.HMRC6 yearsProper pain in the neck!6 yearsAbsolutely sick of this number constantly calling me! x6 yearsI received a rather dubious call concerning PPI, where the caller brought up HSBC and a company called Harrisons, who had previously managed my PPI claims. They mentioned that a law firm called Goldman Knightley would be reaching out to me shortly. What was concerning was that this caller seemed to have knowledge of my previous address and my date of birth, which made it all the more unsettling. In a moment of foolishness, I revealed my National Insurance number, but as soon as I hung up, it dawned on me that it could very well have been a scam. Should I take this further and inform the authorities about this incident?HSBCHarrisonsGoldman KnightleyNational Insurance6 yearsI’m really happy I didn’t answer that call after I looked up who was ringing me on Who Called Me.6 yearsI got two calls from this number, both times they wanted my National Insurance number and other personal info. After that, I received a text pushing me to click a link ASAP. They were saying something about getting a tax refund or claim? Seemed a bit dodgy to me.National Insurance6 yearsGot a load of dodgy calls from scammers trying to get my info, so I just blocked this number straight away!!!6 yearsBeen getting loads of calls from this number, just hangs up without leaving any voicemail. Definitely sounds like a dodgy PPI scam, so I've blocked it now. Total fraudsters, really annoying.6 yearsThey call me a few times daily, probably two or three times every single day. I usually ignore calls from unknown numbers, but these lot just keep trying constantly.6 yearsOn Monday the 10th of August, I got a call from this number, with a woman claiming I was owed a tax refund from HMRC linked to a PPI payment. She mentioned she was ringing from Harrington Advisory, but I’m pretty sure that company went bust some time ago. I’ve sent the details over to HMRC’s team that deals with phishing.HMRCHarrington Advisory6 yearsThis number has been incessantly buzzing my phone, and it seems to have no plans of letting up! In the last three days alone, I've been bombarded with more than twelve calls from it, yet I've chosen not to pick up once. Well, serves them right for not bothering to leave a message!6 yearsEvery day I’m getting calls from a new number. I never say anything to the answering machine, but it’s really starting to bug me. Blocking them doesn’t seem to work at all, they just somehow keep managing to ring me again. Such a pain!6 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from a company handling claims for TSX, they name dropped Harringtons who I dealt with before. The security questions they asked were about my postcode and birthday. Weirdly, they said they had my partner’s email but not mine. Then they wanted my National Insurance number, which seemed off. They promised to send me an email but never did.SaidTSXNational Insurance6 yearsOver the past few days, this number has kept ringing me but never left a single message, which makes me think it's not really urgent. Glad I looked it up here first, I've gone ahead and blocked it now.6 yearsThey just keep calling but it always goes straight to voicemail. Not once have they left a message, which makes me think it’s not anything urgent. Every time I block a number, they just ring from a different one. I’ve used Harrington’s before and seeing what others are saying here is quite interesting.Harrington6 yearsHonestly, it’s so annoying - they keep calling from new numbers, and I've had to block each one! When will it ever stop?6 yearsGot a call from an 0161 number I don’t recognise. I’ve blocked a few from that area already, but they just switch up the last few numbers each time. At this rate, I’ll run out of room to block all these annoying calls soon.6 yearsMy phone went off three times in a row and I finally picked up. It was a woman with an American accent saying something about the police and jail threats. I was a bit suspicious at first but then I saw the comments about Harringtons and remembered a mate who used them to get his PPPI sorted. Can’t believe they supposedly didn't pay their taxes though! Quite the story.HMRCHarrington6 yearsThey say they're a firm helping you reclaim tax from PPI, but honestly, if there was any tax owed, HMRC would reach out to me themselves. The phone number they use keeps switching all the time. Sounds linked to Harringtons, who, funnily enough, were told by a court to stop trading because they owe HMRC tax. Avoid this lot, they're total scammers.HMRCHarringtons6 yearsGot another call from some 0161 code, blocked it straight away, but they keep switching up the numbers each time. So annoying!6 yearsI picked up the phone but there wasn’t any message after I answered.6 yearsBlocked the spammer’s call, don’t want to deal with those scams again.6 yearsi keep getting calls from different manchester area codes. every time i pick up, no one speaks and then they just put the phone down. feels like a scam to check if your number is active or something like that.ManchesterSubmit Your Own Report (0161 768 2598)
