Phone number ☎️ 01618186206 👆 is reported as a common number used for convincing ppi refund scams, mostly involving calls from people claiming to represent banks like Barclays or consumer refund services. Callers often pressure victims into buying £200 Amazon vouchers as administrative fees, promising large refunds or cash deliveries that never materialise. Many victims find the calls come from people with heavy Asian accents using fake names like Jessica or Kevin. The scammers are persistent and skilled at deception, targeting vulnerable individuals and ignoring requests to stop. Several have lost money to this scheme, while others have narrowly avoided the trap by questioning suspicious details. The number is linked to multiple complaints of fraud and is widely mistrusted by those aware of these tactics.

7 yearsReceived a voicemail from someone named Alex regarding a questionable PPI reimbursement. I chose to ignore it.Alex7 yearsGot a voicemail from an Asian lady with a strong accent, saying something about my PPI claim being accepted by the Royal Bank of Scotland. Yeah right, I don’t think so.Royal Bank of Scotland7 yearsSo my elderly dad, who's 70, got a ring from someone called Jessica. Luckily, my mum decided to report it to the police to see what was up. What a bunch of absolute rubbish people!Jessica7 yearsThose scammers were seriously believable.7 yearsA woman with an Asian accent rang me claiming to be from Barclays, asking questions about PPI. I struggled to catch what she was saying, so I just replied with a polite “no thanks, goodbye” and ended the call. Honestly, I’m so tired of these calls about PPI, not to mention the ones about an accident I had recently or those pretending to be from the royal courts of justice. We really shouldn’t have to deal with this constant hassling.Royal Courts of Justice7 yearsI received a call from a lady named Jessica using this number, purporting to be from Barclays. She mentioned that I had an outstanding PPI refund waiting for me and insisted on delivering it to my home. I politely told her I was busy at work and would return the call later. Clearly, it’s yet another dodgy scam attempt!JessicaBarclays7 yearsConsumer refund services are nothing but a massive con. Stay alert and steer clear of them! Watch out for these names: - Kevin - Sandra - Richard Wilson - Jessica - Nancy Don’t get tangled up in their web of deceit!KevinSandraRichard WilsonJessicaNancy7 yearsi got a call claiming i could receive £3,000 in cash tonight for some ppt thingy, but first they insisted i send over the codes from £200 worth of amazon vouchers. they never mentioned this part till after i’d already bought the cards. felt a bit dodgy, so i said no way am i handing over my cash without seeing theirs first! now they’re refusing to pick up when i ring back. checked the official oracle site and it says there’s a 20% fee, so this all sounds like a proper scam to me. be careful out there.Amazon7 yearsI just had a chat with some bloke named Kevin and really called him out on his scam. They tricked my elderly parents, saying they were some kind of consumer refund service based in Manchester. Proper awful people - hope they get what’s coming to them.KevinManchester7 yearsi got a call from a woman with an asian accent saying she was from barclays, asking for my son. problem is, my son passed away from cancer 5 years ago when he was only 23. i told her to stop bothering me and go away. then she called back, shocked about what i said, so i gave her an earful. plus, my son never even had an account with barclays. what a nerve!Barclays7 yearsGot a call from a guy, sounded asian, said his name was Michael but kept calling me by the wrong name. He claimed he was ringing from Barclays or something like that!MichaelBarclays7 yearsI'm seriously thinking of getting this Michael to spill his personal info, his time's almost up. Haha, this is gonna be good!Michael10 yearsGot a call from a private number and when I picked up, some bloke called ‘Michael’ claimed he was ringing from Microsoft. He said my computer was infected with a nasty virus and hackers were trying to steal my info. I told him I was working at the moment and he asked when he could call back. I asked for a number to call him on and he gave me this one. Not sure if it’s a scam or legit, so planning to check with Microsoft directly.MichaelMicrosoftSubmit Your Own Report (0161 818 6206)
