01618506065 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01618506065 👆 is reported as a persistent source of scam calls targeting people with fake claims from companies like O2, domestic appliance insurance, and HMRC. Callers often use fake British accents and names, pressuring recipients for personal details or payments, including requests for gift cards. Automated messages threaten legal action to create urgency and fear, especially affecting older or vulnerable individuals. The number frequently changes but is linked to various fraudulent schemes. Recipients are advised to hang up immediately, never provide personal details, and block the number. Engaging the scammers wastes their time and helps protect others. Official organisations like HMRC do not operate in this aggressive or automated manner, so such calls should always be treated with extreme caution.

Classic scam call from overseas.

The phone calls switch up all the time, with new numbers and excuses, but I can always spot when it’s someone Indian trying to do a dodgy American accent - you can still hear the Indian tone underneath, it’s quite amusing. They always pick some English name like Paul Smith too, like they think I’m daft enough to believe it!

Got a phone call from someone who was obviously trying to hide that they weren’t from around here. She said my appliances’ warranty had run out and needed my card info to sort it. I just told her I live in a caravan, and she went quiet for a bit before saying "oh, okay then…" and suddenly ended the call. Rare to see a scammer at a loss for what to say, haha. Honestly, I never bother with appliance warranties anyway since I buy the cheap gear that I’m not fussed about.

I got a call from someone claiming to be from Domestic Appliance, asking if I was a particular person. I didn’t really respond with a yes or no. Instead, I asked what the call was about. He told me the warranties on my white goods had expired. That’s rubbish though, coz I’ve just renewed all of them recently!

Scrolling through the comments here, seems this number gets used for all sorts of scams. I picked up once and an Indian bloke told me my cooker, washing machine, and freezer warranties were about to expire. I told him they weren't near expiry. He insisted they were. I told him they actually ended years ago. He then repeated that it was exactly what I’d said. I told him not to twist my words. When I said I wasn’t giving any info or signing up for anything on the phone, he just hung up straight away.

Got one of those dodgy calls about insuring my appliances. I just kept them on the phone, pretending to be interested and gave them made-up bank details. Ended up chewing 14 minutes off their clock. Honestly, if they’re stuck chatting with me, that’s less time for them to bother someone who might actually fall for it. If you get a call like that, try to hang about and waste their minutes too!

Beware of this so-called Home Appliance Insurance scam, it’s just another trick to get your money.

Got a call earlier today from someone saying they were with domestic appliance insurance. They said I could get 35% off because I hadn’t made any claims yet, and that they’d post the details to me. But then they gave me an address that I haven’t lived at for almost a decade! I told them I wasn’t interested and that it felt like a total scam 😡 Watch out, seems like they’ve brought back this number just to trick people again 😡😡😡

On the 30th of November, 2018, I was subjected to a rather sinister automated phone call claiming to be from HMRC, asserting that they had been attempting to reach me regarding a legal matter. The moment the recorded voice instructed me to ‘press 1’, I didn’t hesitate to disconnect the call. It's absolutely disgraceful and can be incredibly unsettling for individuals who might be alone or feeling vulnerable. I genuinely wonder how my number ended up in their hands, especially as I’m on the XDR list. Very concerning indeed! This call originated from an anonymous number in the Bournemouth area.

Just received another one of those automated calls claiming to be from the Inland Revenue about a supposed investigation. They want you to press "One" to speak to your case officer. Yeah right! Sounds like a proper scammy racket from Scamville! No way I'm falling for that!

got a call from this number earlier today, claiming to be hmrc and threatening legal action. they told me to press 1 to talk to some case worker. i just ended the call and blocked the number straight away. i can imagine how upsetting this must be for older folk living alone to get calls like that.

Got a scam call recently, so I cross-checked with HMRC using the phone number printed on official documents I have from them. They made it clear they never leave voicemail messages with detailed info, only their standard 0345 contact number for you to ring back. They also warned that around the end of the tax year, these scams ramp up big time. Best advice is to ignore any calls like that, since the return number's often a premium line which can charge you loads. Plus, they might record your voice and use it to hack into accounts secured by voice recognition. Stay safe!

I've been receiving persistent calls from this number, but I never pick up. It's quite clear to me that it's a spam operation, seeing as HMRC wouldn't conduct themselves in such a manner.

This afternoon, I got a rather alarming call claiming to be from HMRC, stating that there was a lawsuit filed against me and urging me to press one to connect with my case officer. I promptly ended the call. This sort of thing could genuinely distress an older individual living by themselves.

This call mirrored what others have reported. A woman, identifying herself as Lisa Scott, rang me from a landline, claiming to be representing Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs. She mentioned an alleged lawsuit against me concerning overdue income tax matters from the past. She requested my National Insurance number to 'confirm' the details of the case. There was an overwhelming amount of background chatter, which raised my suspicions considerably-I mean, it's hard to imagine a government office operating in such a manner. I decided to end the call and subsequently did a 1471 to trace the number. Honestly, it left me feeling quite uneasy; the whole experience felt rather menacing.

I received a rather dubious call from the number listed above. The individual on the line claimed to represent HMRC and urged me to press 1 to speak with an advisor. My instincts kicked in straight away as I find it hard to believe that HMRC would use such a tactic to contact individuals. While he did know my name, the address he provided, missing my postcode, was completely off the mark. At that point, it dawned on me that this was a scam, and I made it quite clear to him. He promptly hung up. It’s high time we put an end to these unsolicited phone calls once and for all. The general public has had enough of these nuisances. With all the technology available today, surely a solution can be found to eliminate these unwanted pests! - caller: 01618506065

I received a call that started with a woman’s voice claiming it was a legitimate HMRC communication, mentioning something about a court case tied to my name. They instructed me to press QNE if I wanted to talk to my case officer. Honestly, the best course of action here is to just hang up. Also, it’s a good idea to alert the family - it’s clearly a scam and not to be trusted!

It's the same old ruse regarding HMRC, but this time they tried to frighten my mother-in-law into buying iTunes vouchers at Morrisons to settle a so-called debt or face imprisonment. She came over to our place quite distressed, so I decided to accompany her back home and dialled this number from her telephone. There was no response initially, but shortly after, they rang her back. I had a brief chat with them, then took the phone from her and told the caller exactly where to shove their nonsense!

Got a call from 0161 850 6065, thought it might be legit but when I rang back the bloke just told me to bugger off. Seems like these are just scamming old folks who might not even know better. Proper nasty behaviour if you ask me.

I received a call on my home phone from this number. The caller claimed there was a legal case filed against me and requested my national insurance number to provide details regarding the allegations. When I inquired about why I hadn’t received any correspondence in writing, he insisted they had sent letters on three occasions in December! My instincts told me to withhold my NI number, especially as he repeatedly insisted that he was merely trying to assist me. I decided to hang up. Following this, I reached out to HMRC, who confirmed that it was indeed a fraudulent scheme.

I've been inundated with calls for the past three days on both my landline and mobile from someone claiming to represent HMRC. They're insisting that there's a police arrest warrant out for me and they're after my National Insurance number, alluding to an outstanding payment from a decade ago. They urged me to rush to various supermarkets to purchase Apple and iTunes gift cards, insisting it was for my personal use. The situation is maddening; I can't seem to disconnect the call and it's left my mobile line tied up. I've been unable to reach my children, friends, or anyone for that matter.

My elderly grandfather, who's 87, got a rather unsettling call that was supposedly meant to reassure him. Thank goodness I was right there beside him, or he might have ended up forking out a hefty sum after being bullied into it by a rather unpleasant individual over the phone.
