Phone number ☎️ 01618186134 👆 is reported as a scam targeting vulnerable individuals seeking loans. Callers claiming to represent a loan service request upfront payments via paysafe cards, starting around £25 and escalating, but never disburse any funds.

The operation uses unofficial email addresses and persistent phone calls, causing distress and financial harm.

Has anyone managed to get their cash back yet?

I ran into trouble with viva loans. First, they wanted me to pay £25 using a paysafe card, then came back asking for £75 more, and after that, they asked for £100 again. It really confused me, feels like a total scam to me.

These people won’t stop ringing me! I’m really confused about how they manage to get hold of someone’s personal information in the first place. What kind of things are they even able to do with all that data?
11 years
An obvious scam, really. Whenever I get calls like this, I just ask them which country they’re ringing from and that sends them packing most times. Here’s the kind of message they leave: basically saying your unsecured loan request has been approved and that the money will be in your bank within 24 hours. They claim they’ve tried to reach you several times but couldn’t, so they want you to call them back on a number like 01613540936 to speak with ‘Michael’ or ‘Kelly’ and give a reference ID such as VL1745920 so they can transfer the funds. They even say customer service is open 9am to 8pm weekdays and shorter hours on Saturday, and that calls are at local rates. It’s all very professional sounding but total nonsense. Best just to ignore and block these numbers honestly.

Cheers for all the feedback folks! Just got a call saying my loan got approved but I gotta pay twenty five quid first. I’ve taken out loans before and never had to fork out anything upfront, so I got suspicious. Looked up the dodgy email they gave me (a gmail address? Come on!) and stumbled upon this site. Can’t wait for them to ring again so I can tell them where to stick it! Seriously, who asks for cash up front when you’re clearly strapped for it in the first place? Proper nasty people, hope they get what’s coming for trying to scam folks in financial trouble!

Somebody called asking me to send £25 to transfer some money. It sounded dodgy to me, is this like one of those scams?
11 years
Absolutely got done over. Was in a tough spot at home and these muppets completely took advantage of me. It kicked off with a £25 paysafe payment... then they asked for £100 claiming it was to sort some anti-money laundering thing, followed by another £75 for VAT and some other rubbish. Ended up losing £275 to these con artists. A really costly and harsh lesson to learn. BE CAREFUL, THESE SCAMMERS TARGET YOU WHEN YOU'RE STRUGGLING. NEVER PAY THROUGH PAYSAFE EVER.

really happy i’ve got barclays pinsentry, without it i’d probably have fallen for this lot. it wasn’t until i checked the sending email address again that i picked up on the scammy stuff. watch out for [email protected] claiming to be viva loans - they sound more convincing than a lot of genuine calls and emails i’ve had, so i can see why folks get caught out.

Absolute scam! They say they offer loans but first want you to pay fees in advance. Once you've paid, they never give you the loan. And when I tried ringing them back, they just ended the call on me. Avoid these lot!

This company calling itself Viva Loans has been ringing me, plus sending emails, telling me I need to pay £25 to get my loan released. I never applied for anything like that, and it really feels like a scam 😠

I got a call from this number claiming to be Viva Loans, they wanted me to pay £25 to get the loan I supposedly applied for. Sounds like a total scam to me 😠 Caller said it was Viva Loans.

I totally fell for it too, feeling a right mug now. It's awful how they target folks who are easy to trick. Just a heads up to everyone to stay careful out there.

They keep calling me, asking for 25 quid to be paid.

This number rang me recently, saying they were from a loan firm named Viva. I’d apparently been approved for a loan, but they asked for £175 upfront to release the funds. Foolishly, I paid it, but no money ever showed up in my account. Whenever I tried to call them back and gave my name, they’d just hang up. Hope this warning stops anyone else from falling for this scam number 01618186134. Definitely won’t be making that mistake again. - Craig McDonald

Got a call from this number but had no idea who it was. When I rang back from my landline, it showed up as 'unknown caller.' First, some lady picked up but I couldn't make out what she was saying. I called again and a bloke just answered with 'hello' and that was it.

Watch out, that guy called Simon is a total scammer, don’t trust him!
