Phone number ☎️ 01727510166 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance primarily consisting of automated calls claiming fraudulent transactions on bank accounts, often specifying large sums taken overseas.

Many users have experienced repeated harassment from different numbers linked to the same scam operation, often based abroad but using UK numbers through VOIP. The calls are generally recognised as scams, with recipients advised not to engage, press any buttons, or disclose personal details. The issue affects various locations and demographics, including elderly individuals, causing considerable frustration and concern. Blocking numbers has limited effect as new ones are continually used. Vigilance and reporting to banks or relevant authorities are recommended.
Reports on phone number 01727510166
2 yearsThese are a bunch of dodgy scammers operating from India who purchase or lease UK phone numbers, using VOIP to incessantly pester individuals day in, day out. It's quite evident it’s the same lot, as they unfailingly mention 'Sao Paulo' during their calls. If you try ringing back some of these numbers, they purport to be from 'web solutions' but are known to operate under various guises. Their tactic appears to be a relentless barrage of calls until the recipient is utterly exasperated, but I reckon that’s futile, given they’ll just keep dialling regardless. I’ve already informed them multiple times that I don’t even run a website, yet here we are, four years later, and they still insist on masquerading as different companies depending on whatever bits of information they've managed to glean!IndiaUKSao Paulo5 yearsGot a call from this number, 01727 510166, at 9.19 this morning.
