01912868799 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01912868799 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance scam originating from a Tyneside number, targeting mainly elderly individuals with calls about supposed cheque refunds or funeral plans. Callers, often using fake names and various accents, pressure recipients for personal information and attempt to involve victims in fraudulent schemes involving cheques and vouchers. They may respond rudely or hang up if questioned. Calls are frequent, with no meaningful conversation if answered promptly and voicemail often plays indistinct background noise. Many victims advise ignoring or blocking the number where possible, and caution that the calls are deceptive attempts to extract personal details or money. Authorities have been urged to intervene, but vigilance and scepticism remain essential among those contacted.

8 yearsMy elderly mum got a call from this number saying they were from The Cathedral and wanted to talk about funeral arrangements. She was wise to just hang up, but it left her quite upset for the entire day! I wish there was a way to block this number. Unfortunately, because she’s with BT, we can’t block it directly on her phone since their system only lets you block the most recent caller.The Cathedral8 yearsNearly every day I get calls from this number, but when I try to answer after a couple of rings, no one’s there. It’s a Tyneside code, so I’d think the police could track them down and take action.Tyneside8 yearsI received a rather curious call from a chap named John Robert, claiming to be with the Claims Advisory Group in Manchester. He mentioned something about having a cheque for me, supposedly due to some overcharging by my bank. He provided me with a reference number for the cheque and mentioned that I should expect another call later today from someone else. Quite an interesting situation, I must say!John RobertClaims Advisory GroupManchester8 yearsThis number keeps pestering me with calls from scamming characters.8 yearsMy landline just got a call from 01912868799. If you get a call from this number, just ignore it. It's definitely a scam! I checked online and loads of people have been targeted by the same number. Honestly, the authorities really need to deal with whoever’s behind this!8 yearsI picked up the call and they wanted to speak with me by name, but when I tried asking them stuff, they just snapped at me to shut up and pay attention! Such bad manners. Definitely not calling back.8 yearsLoads of annoying calls from this number and others too. I had a feeling it was dodgy, but didn’t know exactly what it was about. I really should pick up one day instead of letting the answerphone do the job while I’m out - might have a laugh messing with them! ??8 yearsGot a call from this number today, some bloke with an Asian accent saying I was owed a cheque for about £2000 because of bank overpayments. He said his name was Alex. I thought it sounded dodgy straight away, so I told him to just send the cheque by post. He didn’t seem too pleased hearing that, so I ended the call.Alex8 yearsBe careful of Claims Advisory Group. They ask you to purchase iTunes gift cards and read out the codes on the phone. Then, they chatter about some courier bringing a cheque, which obviously never turns up. They make you hang on for ages before ringing again, trying to hype you up about the cash to stop you from realising it’s just a dodgy con.Claims Advisory Group8 yearsGot a call early this morning around half past eight from someone with an Indian accent, claimed his name was John Robert. Told me I was owed a cheque due to some bank insurance overpayment. Then he started asking for my personal info. I just ended the call right away. Since then, they’ve been blowing up my phone non-stop all day, like I’m super gullible or something!John Robert8 yearsThey called again but didn’t bother leaving a voicemail, so I just blocked the number.8 yearsGot two calls in about five minutes. I was looking after my baby so I let the answerphone pick it up. Could hear a lot of background noise that sounded like a call centre, and there were loads of different foreign accents too.8 yearsI've just sent the call over.8 yearsToday this number rang me but I missed it, then I saw there was a voicemail. When I listened to the message, it was clear they hadn’t realised my phone had picked up voicemail as all I heard was some call centre noise and a woman speaking in a language I couldn’t understand.8 yearsThis number has called me twice already this week. Every time I pick up, there's nobody there. Since my phone doesn't show who's calling, I have to answer just to check who it is. If I saw their number beforehand, I'd just block or ignore it. Honestly, it's starting to get pretty irritating now.8 yearsGot a call a moment ago, answered it but all I could hear was some weird background noise, no one speaking or anything.8 yearsI got a call from some bloke asking if Mr Clayton was there. I told him no one with that name lives here, and he just says 'alright, bye' and hangs up. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.Clayton8 yearsGot a call from an Asian lady looking for someone called Mrs Squirrel - unfortunately, that’s not me.Squirrel8 yearsI got a call from a lady with an Asian accent, maybe Indian, who said she was from the Government. She told me I was supposed to get a refund cheque soon. When I asked her for more info, she got quite short and rude. She did check my address correctly, which isn’t hard to find online, but then wouldn’t share anything else. Felt like a total waste of time.Government8 yearsI got a call from a woman with an Indian accent claiming she was from some government department. When I asked her what the call was about, she got really sharp and kept pushing me to verify my identity. I tried to find out more details, but she snapped at me, told me to go away, and then hung up straight away.India8 yearsSomebody rang me claiming to be from the government regarding an overpayment issue. She tried to get personal info from me, but when I asked her to explain more, the call just ended abruptly.8 yearsGot a call from an unknown number, picked up but there was nothing but silence on the line. Since I didn’t know who it was, I decided not to ring them back.Submit Your Own Report (0191 286 8799)
