01618187868 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01618187868 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number linked to fraudulent calls about debts, accidents, and fake investigations, often with foreign accents and poor English. Callers use threatening or rude tactics, claim to be from official agencies like HMRC or debt advice services, and frequently change their number slightly to bypass blocks. Many victims receive calls at inconvenient times, causing distress. Blocking is largely ineffective due to number spoofing and automated systems generating new numbers continuously. Users are strongly advised to report all scam calls and texts via official police fraud websites and forward suspicious messages to authorities. Engaging with MPs to push for stronger caller ID authentication technology in the UK is also recommended to help combat these ongoing scams.

It’s quite unsettling to get such late-night interruptions, as one can’t help but dread the news it may bring. I kindly ask for it to be blocked, as it's a source of great anxiety.7 yearsI reckon these lot grab your number from Gumtree or somewhere, I’d just posted an ad for a keyboard and they rang me right away about some car crash. When I told them to do one, they told me to shove my Gumtree keyboard where the sun don’t shine! Proper charming!Gumtree8 yearsGot a robo call saying it was HMRC, telling me to ring them straight away or I'd face legal trouble.HMRC8 yearsSomeone called claiming to be from HMRC Tax investigation, had an Indian accent, asked if the missed call was from a landline or mobile.
