Phone number ☎️ 01639887421 👆 is reported as a persistent scam caller targeting landlines with claims about phone rebates, broadband issues, or waste management. Callers often use fake names and have thick, often foreign accents, sometimes with odd or rude behaviour when challenged. They pretend to be from well-known companies like Sky, BT, Virgin Media or Microsoft, urging victims to run speed tests or download suspicious remote access software. Many have left no message or just white noise, while others have been aggressive and hung up when questioned. The number seems to be linked to a Welsh location but is widely flagged as a scam. Authorities have noted significant financial losses linked to these calls and stress public awareness as a key defence.

Got a call on my landline about some phone rebate deal. I told the guy straight up that he was trying to scam me, then I just ended the call right there. Felt dodgy from the start.

Got a call recently from someone pretending to be from waste management, total scam.

SCAM ALERT. When I confronted them, they literally just laughed and bragged about how well-off they are, saying they're not affected by the cost of living crisis at all. They even boasted about buying a shiny new Mercedes Benz, all because no one takes action against them 🤬. The Police told me to spread the word on social media and get as many people as possible to share it. They reckon if enough folks do this, more people will be aware and can spot these scams. Apparently, in just the last month, they’ve swiped hundreds of thousands of pounds, according to the Police.

The person on the phone spoke with a really thick accent, so I couldn't catch their name at all. They said they were calling about something to do with Microsoft. I just told them, "I don't want anything to do with you, you’re bad news," and hung up straight away.

Received a call purporting to be from Sky, stating that their servers were undergoing some upgrades and that I was required to perform a speed test. The caller had a typical British name but a strong Indian accent... how original! When will they grasp the futility of such tactics? Quite amusing, really!

Received a dodgy phone call claiming I wasn’t a Sky customer, and to top it off, they insulted me by calling me a foolish woman. It’s absolutely imperative that these call centres are tracked down and closed, though I fear that’s a tall order.

The bloke said his name was Charles and somehow knew my name too, but his accent was so strong I could barely understand him. Then, out of nowhere, he just ended the call. Honestly, Charles didn’t seem like the kind of name that fit him at all.

Don't bother answering this number, it's a scam. It keeps calling me and it's from Neath, Wales. Just ignore it.

Early Monday morning, got a call from a woman with an accent from the Indian sub-continent, saying there was an issue with our internet. Didn’t take long to figure out it was a scam - everything’s fine with the broadband!

Got a call from a Neath number, Wales, on 14/10/23 at about 11.02. They kept ringing for ages, but I have no contacts in Wales at all. When I answered, all I could hear was weird static. I left a message but it felt really dodgy. Could be a scam, be careful!

They called saying they were from BT tech support about our internet, but once I questioned them they just ended the call. Definitely another scam attempt.
