Phone number ☎️ 01618095294 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number frequently impersonating well-known UK providers like TalkTalk and Virgin Media. Callers use deceptive tactics, including fake technical issues and urgent service threats, often accompanied by foreign accents and aggressive behaviour. Many recipients experience repeated calls, sometimes several a day, with occasional obscured or withheld numbers making blocking difficult. These calls commonly aim to deceive individuals into providing personal information or access to devices, with some distressing attempts involving emotional manipulation. No legitimate messages are left, and the genuine companies confirm they are not responsible. Users are advised to block the number, avoid engaging, and report incidents to authorities such as Action Fraud to help combat this ongoing nuisance.

9 yearssomeone called claiming to be from “talk talk” but ended up shouting all sorts of rubbish at me ( fttti# cH## and the like). i later spoke with the actual talk talk people, and they said it’s definitely a scam. got a mate who knows what he’s doing looking into it now. honestly, i’m ready to go on a wild goose chase and track the idiot down no matter how far it takes me. just wait until he realises who i really am. maybe time for a new pair of trousers, eh???TalkTalk9 yearsIndeed, I’ve received a barrage of phone calls, at least half a dozen, from what they claim is ‘TalkTalk’ and even BT! All the callers appear to be foreign. I’ve asked time and again for them to cease contacting me, yet it seems to fall on deaf ears. My husband did manage to get through to one of them and retrieve the number, but the rest have been impossible to trace.9 yearsA caller claimed to be from TalkTalk, threatening to cut off my service. When I nonchalantly replied that I was fine with that, they abruptly ended the call. Quite amusing, really!TalkTalk9 yearsLet it ring, no voicemail left so I decided to look it up here. Cheers for the info, I'm definitely adding it to my blacklist now.9 yearsSome dodgy lot tried to break into my computer and nick my cash, so I just told them to shove off and blocked them straight away.9 yearsThis number has rung me twice today pretending to be from TalkTalk, and I had three other calls from them earlier this week. It's really distressing, especially since we're quite old.TalkTalk9 yearsI've been bombarded with multiple calls a day from this ruddy number. Occasionally, they come up as ‘withheld’, which makes it impossible for me to block them. However, today they slipped up and didn’t withhold their number. I've gone ahead and blocked it now. I've also reached out to Action Fraud via their website. I reckon it's worth it for everyone else to do the same-it might put a spanner in the works for these con artists. The chap who rang me today claimed to be from TalkTalk Technical Support, saying there was an issue with my internet. Nice try, mate-I’m not falling for that! 😂Action FraudTalkTalk9 yearsThis number said they were from TalkTalk. I've blocked it and also let TalkTalk know about it.TalkTalk9 yearsYet another annoying telephone call, adding to the never-ending list of those pesky unknown numbers. I've blocked them all!9 yearsI could only catch a snippet of what sounded like a foreign accent saying 'Talk Talk'. This number has rung me previously, and I have a strong suspicion it's some kind of phishing attempt.9 yearsI recently received a call from the number listed above, claiming to be from TalkTalk. It was quite convincing, complete with background noise that mimicked a genuine call centre vibe. Others have reported similar encounters. Undoubtedly a scam, and I highly advise against engaging with them. If you find yourself in a similar situation, simply inform them that you will contact the company directly at a later date. This usually prompts them to hang up quickly, which is a clear indication that they’re not legitimate. Stay vigilant!TalkTalk9 yearsI received a call earlier today from someone purporting to be from TalkTalk. They insisted that I needed to unplug my router and follow some convoluted instructions to ensure my internet stayed up and running. I told them I’d ring TalkTalk using a different number to verify their claims, at which point the caller promptly hung up. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!TalkTalk9 yearsI just had a rather dubious phone call from someone claiming to be from TALK TALK. The details they provided were all over the place, and I struggled to make sense of what they were on about. Definitely feels like a scam to me!9 yearsClaimed to be from TalkTalk, but when I inquired about the reason for their call, they hung up on me. I've since added them to my blocked list.TalkTalk9 yearsGot a call from this number and it really upset me. A little kid's voice was begging, "please help, bring some food, I'm starving" - honestly, it was horrible. I'm definitely going to notify the police about it. If it's just some sick prank trying to get people to ring back, it's absolutely disgusting.9 yearsAbsolutely no clue who this might be - I've received three other calls already, one claiming to be from "TalkTalk," which kicked off around 8 this morning. I seem to get multiple of these types of calls daily and often just let them ring without picking up. Usually, I’ll check 1471 and only return the calls that seem genuine. It’s quite vexing, to say the least!9 yearsReceived a call from this number earlier today while I was out. Thankfully, I took the time to look it up on this website. I've now gone ahead and blocked it.9 yearsI've had a couple of calls from this number lately. My phone’s set to send unknown callers straight to voicemail with a friendly message asking them to leave their number or a message, promising a callback. Not a single message was left, which is a dead giveaway it’s a scam. Did my usual check on this site and blocked the number immediately.9 yearsI told them to quit ringing me and didn’t bother to check who they were. The guy, who sounded Indian, just shouted a load of insults at me and then hung up. Definitely not a proper business.9 yearsGot a call from 01618095294 saying they were Virgin Media and needed to test my router speed, even asked me to switch on my laptop. Nah, no way am I falling for that!Virgin Media9 yearsReceived a call from someone impersonating Virgin Media, but I could tell straight away it was a scam as they rang my mobile.Virgin Media9 yearsI didn't recognise the number, so I opted to let it go to voicemail. However, there was no message left, so I decided to block it!9 yearsI received a call from someone impersonating Virgin Media, asking me to carry out tasks on my computer using the Windows key along with the letter R. When I requested the password to verify their claim, they feigned a poor connection and claimed they couldn’t hear me. It became obvious to me really quickly that it was a scam; for one, they contacted me on my mobile phone, whereas Virgin usually calls through the landline.Virgin MediaVirgin9 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Virgin Media, asking me to press the windows key and the letter r on my computer. When I asked for the password, they acted like they couldn’t hear me at all. I was suspicious from the start since they rang my mobile instead of the landline, which Virgin would’ve definitely used. Pretty obvious it was a scam.Virgin MediaSubmit Your Own Report (0161 809 5294)
