01618188702 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01618188702 👆 is reported as a scam frequently impersonating O2, trying to trick people into sharing personal and bank details via calls or texts offering fake discounts or loans. Callers use rude, aggressive behaviour and boast some info to sound legit, but often have heavy accents and fail to answer basic questions. They ask for security codes or fees upfront and hang up if challenged. Victims warn others about fraud attempts involving supposed bill reductions or vouchers, sometimes involving crude language or inappropriate conduct. Many stress the importance of not engaging, noting no genuine voicemail or follow-up, and mention the caller switching numbers when blocked. Several found the ordeal annoying but also somewhat amusing due to the scammers’ poor acting skills.

I got called by some dodgy person pretending to be from insurance, but they were really rude and kept spouting lies. Felt like a scam to me, nothing trustworthy about it at all. Avoid them!

Got a ring about some accident supposedly involving me, but I’ve never been in one. Pretty sure it was a fraud call. Best to steer clear.

I got a message from this number saying they were O2, but turns out they were just pretending. They were after my details to get into my O2 account and pull off some kind of scam. I didn’t catch on fast enough and they almost got me, but luckily I stopped it before they could do any real harm or cost me loads.

I received an email claiming that I'd been approved for a loan of £3,000, but they requested my bank details and a modest fee of £50 to be wired over to some account. Just a heads-up, folks, steer clear of this!
5 years
I received a call purporting to be from O2, suggesting that I could get a 50% reduction on my bill by extending my contract. They were quite persistent in asking for my banking information.

I just got a call from this number but didn’t pick up. I had a quick look on here before deciding to call back. There was no voicemail left either.

a guy called claiming to be from 02 and said they could give me 40% off on all my bills.

total scam, I reckon. I called them out once and told the bloke off. Then he rang me from another number, but this time, he just swore at me straight away and hung up. guess that first call really got under his skin or something! 0

What absolute nincompoops! They reckon they can help slash your phone bill by sending you dodgy text messages. Just hand over the code, and off they go with their nonsense! It’s all a load of rubbish!

Received a call from someone claiming they could slash my mobile bill by 40%. They sent me a couple of texts while we were on the phone, but I decided to end the call. Sure enough, I got those two messages afterwards, which turned out to be about an O2 scam.

Total scam, avoid answering or calling back! If youre unsure, have a look at the police fraud site. Just google ‘action fraud’ and pick the one that’s on ‘police.uk’. They got loads of useful info on how to report if you’ve been ripped off, as well as tips on dealing with scam calls, texts, and emails. Stay safe and dont get caught out!

The person on the phone had a really strong accent and said they were calling from 02. They couldn’t really answer simple questions at all.

Somebody called claiming to be from my phone company. I asked them exactly which one it was, and they said O2. Since I’m not with O2, I just ended the call straight away.

He said his name was Oscar but honestly, his accent made me think he was from India. Could’ve been Imran or maybe Raj, hard to say. The number started with 02, I think.

'Michael' from O2, eh? He rang me up claiming he had a £50 voucher, only if I would enter a code. When I asked him to verify my date of birth, he insisted we had to do a security check first, which was hilariously my own birthdate! It took him three attempts to guess when I was born before I lost my patience and told him he was quite hopeless. In response, he cheekily fired back that I was the useless one! Honestly, if he’s trying to pull a fast one, he’s rather easy to rattle. If he gives you a bell, make sure to have a bit of sport with him! Oh, and don’t miss the best part - he claimed his last name was Jordan. What a strange little character ‘Michael’ is!

I received a call from someone claiming to represent O2, claiming they could slash my bills by half. They even knew my email address and the exact amount I was being charged! It felt a bit unsettling, to be honest, as I hadn’t shared anything with them. I attempted to reach out to O2 for clarification, but to my dismay, they just hung up on me! Fantastic service from O2, isn't it?

Had a rather amusing encounter with a chap named Michael from O2 earlier. I told him outright that I thought he was spinning me a yarn, and when I requested my postcode and date of birth, he floundered. I suggested that he take his dodgy little scheme elsewhere, and in return, he called me useless! The banter continued back and forth-me urging him to find a legitimate line of work while he fired back with the same advice. It turned into quite the laugh! While he may not excel at his little con, winding him up was thoroughly entertaining.

A caller had the nerve to mention my last name and claimed to be representing O2. He had a thick Indian accent and seemed to be stumbling through a script, trying to entice me with offers on their phones. I really struggled to make out what he was saying due to his accent, so I decided to cut the conversation short and hang up. It’s quite clear this was a dodgy call.

Received a call on my mobile without any voicemail, so I tried returning the call but it went unanswered.

I didn't pick up, so I have no idea who's behind the call. They didn't bother to leave a voicemail, and when I tried to reach back out, there was no response either. Quite puzzling!

This number has rang me more than once, but I couldn’t even pick up this time before they hung up.

Some bloke rang claiming he was with 02, but when I told him I wasn’t with them, he got all upset, asked why I was sniggering like a daft cow, then just dropped the call.

got a call on my mobile earlier claiming to be from O2 with a 40% discount deal. I just knew it was dodgy and ended the call straight away. blocked the number now, but they’ll probably just ring from a different one anyway.

I mentioned that O2 wasn’t my network provider, and he had the cheek to ask why I was chuckling like a lunatic before cutting the call abruptly.

I picked up the phone and straight away, the caller mentioned my last name along with the final four digits of my number, promising me half off my bills. When I cheekily inquired about which bill he was supposedly slashing, he rudely replied that it was the bill for his manhood!

Got a call from someone purporting to be from O2, chatting about a refund. I responded with a bit of confusion, like, “pardon?” and the next thing I know, she tells me to sod off before cutting the line. Quite the unexpected encounter!

Just wanted to let you know, that number’s definitely from 02.

Got a call the other day from someone claiming to be with O2, offering a deal to lower my phone charges. Since I’m still in the middle of my contract, I had my doubts about it being legit. They kept insisting that knowing the last four digits of my number was proof they really worked for O2.

I told him to sod off, and in response, he said the same to me! So, I repeated it back to him and then ended the call. 🙄
