01793617493 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01793617493 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number frequently linked to fraudulent calls impersonating Amazon or Visa, often warning of unauthorised high-value purchases or Prime membership renewals. Callers commonly use automated messages pressuring recipients to confirm or cancel supposed transactions involving expensive Amazon vouchers. Many have noted the calls are unsolicited, with some reporting repeat calls over short periods and hostile behaviour when questioned. Vulnerable individuals, especially older adults, have been targeted, and the scammers employ spoofed UK numbers to mask their true location. Several users have blocked and reported the number to telephone providers and fraud agencies. It is strongly advised not to engage, provide personal or financial details, or press any keypad numbers during these calls, as they are intended to deceive and potentially compromise sensitive information.

Got a phone call from the number 01793 695504 earlier today. The person on the other end said they were from Amazon and wanted me to confirm a pricey mobile phone purchase. I checked my Amazon account and there was no record of any order like that. So, I just ended the call straight away.

I didn’t pick up since the number was unfamiliar and I didn’t leave a message. Now after seeing what others have said, I’ve gone ahead and blocked it.

My 72 year old mum has been getting calls from Amazon nonstop for weeks. She’s really fed up and has finally reported the number to BT, plus she blocked it using 1572 on her phone. They claimed she owed £652, which is mad because it’s obviously a scam to get her bank details. Just a heads up to anyone - don’t share any info with these people!

Got a call that was just like what everyone else says. They tried to get me to buy £699 worth of Amazon gift cards using my Visa. They told me to press one to cancel or two to continue. I hit one and then they said I had to stay on the line to answer some questions, but then it just cut off straight away. I’m about to look at my Amazon account now to see if anything weird happened.

Got a recorded voice telling me to renew my Amazon Prime for about £70 or something. I've had these calls a few times now, so I just ended it straight away, blocked the caller, then flagged it with BT and Fraud Action. Absolute lowlife scammers! I don’t even have an Amazon Prime account.

I've had this number ring me three times today, once about half past one. Before that, I got calls appearing from 01648001305 and another just showing as 044. Every time, they kept banging on about me owing £699 for Amazon gift cards, telling me to press 1 to cancel or 2 to go ahead with buying. I've gone ahead and blocked every single one of those numbers now.

Got a robocall today on a different number, 01524 535112, same as the one listed here. The automated voice claimed to be from Amazon and told me someone had bought stuff for £1960.35 on my account. It asked me to press 1 if that was legit or 2 to talk with their fraud team. I quickly figured it was a con and just ended the call. Later, I checked my Amazon account and there were definitely no orders like that.
