01642988657 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01642988657 👆 is reported as a scam operation impersonating O2, targeting individuals with false offers of discounts, free devices, or gift hampers. Callers often pressure recipients to provide one-time passcodes, a practice genuine O2 staff would never request. The scammers display aggressive or evasive behaviour when questioned and sometimes send texts from official-looking O2 accounts to appear legitimate. Victims have reported unauthorised charges and unwanted long-term contracts. Background noise and silence during initial calls are common tactics to prompt callbacks. Recipients are advised to never share passcodes and to independently verify any offers through official O2 channels before engaging further. Blocking the number and ignoring unsolicited calls is strongly recommended to avoid falling victim to this fraudulent scheme.

3 yearsI've been getting calls from them as well, yet they never bother to leave a voicemail. Quite peculiar, really!3 yearsBe cautious! The folks contacting you are definitely not O2; they're con artists! Never share that one-time passcode they send to you. They lured me in with the sweet offer of a complimentary tablet in exchange for that code.3 yearsI chose not to pick up, seemed like it could be a scam.3 yearsReceived a call from someone pretending to be O2. Total scam!3 yearsGot a call from a guy who said he was with O2, trying to sell me some discount. When I told him I’d rather pop into the shop to check, he got all annoyed and said the offer wouldn’t be the same. Bit rude, if you ask me.3 yearsI put a stop to those dodgy callers.3 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be O2, total scam.3 yearsSo someone rang me pretending to be from o2 and had loads of my personal and bank info, so I ended up giving them even more details. Thought I was just upgrading my plan, but then £30 got taken out of my bank. Later, I got some emails with links I couldn’t open, which seemed odd. I called up o2 to verify and they told me straight away it was a scam. Proper dodgy!3 yearsgot a call from somewhere in middlesbrough saying they were from O2, telling me I’d got a discount. They asked if I was an O2 customer - I said yes. I thought, if you’re really from O2, shouldn’t you already know that? felt a bit dodgy so I just hung up.MiddlesbroughO23 yearsGot calls from some dodgy numbers, but I just blocked em all. No time for scammers!3 yearsThe person on the phone said they were from my mobile network, but when I asked which company they were actually working for, they named a completely different one. Seems a bit dodgy, probably a scam.3 yearsGot a call from this number twice. The first time, there was loads of noise in the background but no one actually said anything, so I just ended the call. The second time, an Asian woman answered, asking if I was okay today. I told her I was eating lunch and asked who she was with, but she just cut off the call. Seemed dodgy to me, probably a scam.3 yearsI got two calls from this number. The first one, there was a lot of noise in the background but no one actually said anything, so I just ended the call. When they rang back, an Asian woman answered and asked me how I was doing. I told her I was having lunch and asked where she was calling from, and she just hung up on me. I’m pretty sure it’s some sort of scam.3 yearsGot a call from 01642988657 from someone saying they were with O2. They asked me for a one-time passcode, which I know O2 would never do. The bloke promised me a free tablet, but instead he put me on a 3-year contract with a phone I neither wanted nor liked. What’s worse, I can’t even afford the payments. He mentioned a discount bringing it down to £13, but the bill ended up being £83. Really watch out for this!3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be O2, asking me for a code. Definitely a scam, don’t fall for it!3 yearsJust got a call from this number, they said they were from O2 and claimed I’d been picked for a half-price deal on my bill, asking for some sort of code they supposedly sent me. I told them I’d call O2 myself to make sure it was real, and suddenly the person started talking really quickly, telling me not to bother calling O2 because I wouldn’t know who I’d speak to and that they needed the code right away. I ended the call there. Best to avoid this number.Submit Your Own Report (01642 988657)
