Phone number ☎️ 01618264853 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance scam predominantly targeting landline users, often involving calls related to timeshare debts or maintenance fees, sometimes claiming to be from a fraudulent "fraud department" or government-affiliated team. Callers are frequently evasive about their identity and use different company names, typically aiming to engage the recipient in a conversation before abruptly ending the call when questions are raised. Many recipients have noted a silent pause when answering, no messages left, and the use of various accents. These calls are unsolicited, with no legitimate follow-up offered. Users are strongly advised to avoid engagement, block the number, and remain cautious as these appear to be deceptive tactics specifically designed to cause confusion and pressure victims.

3 yearsThe call said something about fraud, definitely sounds like a scam to me.3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming their "fraud dept" gave them my info, sounded like one of those timeshare scams to me. Seemed dodgy right from the start.3 yearsToday was yet another occasion we got one of these calls, and it’s definitely not the first. The pattern's always the same - the phone rings, you answer and there’s a pause before anyone talks. Most times the person sounds quite polite and well-spoken. They tend to call you by your full name or sometimes just your first name. When you ask who they are, they give a different company name every time. They usually claim to be Consultants. Then they try to get you chatting about time-shares, even though you never asked for the call. It’s always on the landline. If you ask them to send details in writing, the line goes dead or we just end the call before they can start their usual spiel.3 yearsDidn’t bother leaving any message, so seems pretty dodgy to me.3 yearsGot a call today from someone asking for Mr Richmond, which isn’t me. When I told them that and asked who they were and where they were calling from, they just ended the call right away. Quite odd!Richmond3 yearsThey said they were from some ‘fraud department’, but when I asked which one, they just replied it was ‘government supervised’ or something like that, not very clear. Since I’ve already sorted out my issues with Club La Costa through the courts, this was just nonsense. Honestly, steer clear of them and try to block their calls if possible.Club La Costa3 yearsGot three calls on my home phone from this number but no voicemail left each time. I usually don’t pick up if I don’t know who’s calling. So, I’ve just blocked them now.3 yearsSomeone called me with a Scottish accent, telling me I still owed money for maintenance fees from Club la Costa, which I believe is in liquidation. She said the courts would come after me if it wasn’t paid. It felt like she or a similar caller had contacted me before, possibly working for a different company. It all sounded quite dodgy to me.Club la Costa3 yearsGot a call, but when I answered no one said a word. Felt dodgy, probably one of those scam calls.Submit Your Own Report (0161 826 4853)
