Phone number ☎️ 01618187902 👆 is reported as a scam number frequently impersonating O2, offering fraudulent 40% bill discounts or bogus deals, and seeking verification codes or personal information. Callers use tactics such as citing Black Friday promotions or claiming owed money to extract sensitive details, often employing persistence and sometimes abusive behaviour if declined. Some victims have experienced account hacking and unauthorised purchases after engagement. The calls often originate from unfamiliar area codes, and follow-up calls may come from numbers no longer in service. Users are warned against sharing codes received by text or any financial details. Authorities and legitimate providers advise hanging up immediately and reporting suspicious calls, as these solicitations are deceptive attempts to commit fraud.
