Phone number ☎️ 01618184995 👆 is reported as a persistent scam originating from callers claiming you have PPI compensation due, often linked to Lloyds, Barclays, or Santander banks. Callers frequently use polite introductions but quickly turn aggressive or insulting. They commonly demand upfront payments via Amazon vouchers under false pretences, offering cash or cheque payouts upon receipt. Multiple aliases and changing numbers are typical tactics, with no legitimate company details provided. Many targets find these calls suspicious as they have no relevant claims or bank links.

3 yearsCalled me several times but didn’t bother to leave even a single voicemail.3 yearsA lady rang me from this number, introducing herself as Gloria. Initially, she was charming and courteous, but as the conversation progressed, her tone took a turn for the worse, and she began hurling insults my way. She claimed that I was entitled to a refund of £5000 in PPI.Gloria6 yearsGot a voicemail from some Asian woman called Lily who kept saying I owed PPI from Lloyds or something like that, bit of a mess honestly, I couldn't catch it right. Lucky it was just the answerphone, so I didn’t have to deal with her directly. I’ve blocked the number now. Just a heads up for anyone else, sounds like a scam!LilyLloyds6 yearsGot a call from a woman, said her name was Jessica, saying my mum's PPI claim got approved with Lloyds. Thing is, my mum ain't even a Lloyds customer. Felt like a total scam to me.JessicaLloyds7 yearsGot a call with no message left. When I rang back from my private number, the other end just hung up without saying what their business was. So I’ve blocked them now - won't be getting any more calls from that number for sure.7 yearsI received a call informing me that I was owed £3050 from Barclays. The thing is, I've never had an account with them, so it was clearly a dodgy attempt to swindle me. I let him know exactly what I thought of his little scheme, and he promptly terminated the call. What a joke! Good riddance, you muppet! 😂Barclays7 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Asian accent claiming his name was “Alex.” He said we’d won a PPI claim from Lloyds Bank and left a message on our answerphone asking us to ring back. Problem is, we’ve never had an account with Lloyds at all, so we definitely didn’t bother calling.AlexLloyds BankLloyds7 yearsI got a call from a guy called Mike, sounded like he had an Asian accent, saying I had won a prize from Lloyds. I told him he wasn’t from the bank and hung up quickly. Even though I have a call blocker on my phone, somehow the call still got through.MikeLloyds7 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Asian accent saying I was owed PPI from Santander! I jotted down his info and then looked up the postcode on Google Maps - BL9 0DA - and was stunned to find it was just a dodgy back alley. Then I searched the company, Oracle Legal Ltd, on Companies House. You should do it yourself and also read the reviews online. Total scam artists!SantanderMapsOracle Legal LtdCompanies House7 yearsGot a voicemail out to Lloyds Bank about 3k they owe me for PPI, bloke sounded like he had an Indian accent. Fingers crossed I get that cash soon!Lloyds Bank7 yearsThey just never stop, always switching up their phone digits. The last one ended with 543 as well! Someone really needs to block this number for good!7 yearsWe've been getting calls from this number pretty much every week, but whenever I pick up, there's nothing but quiet on the line. And if I don't pick up, it just rings onto the answerphone without leaving any message. Weird behaviour, honestly.7 yearsSome lady, sounded Asian or something, said her name was Christine and gave this red number with money I supposedly needed to get back on some PPI. She said her mate James Cooper was bringing it to my dad’s house. Now they’re asking for £300 in Amazon vouchers! How daft do they think we are? Scamming an elderly bloke who’s 94, bless him.ChristineJames CooperAmazon7 years01618184995 is a number to watch out for.

Big thanks to Scambuster for the help!Scambuster7 yearsSome woman called Gloria, saying I’m due £3,000 back in PPI compensation and if I gave £200 in Amazon vouchers, they’d send the cash right to my house.
