01997617039 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01997617039 πŸ‘† is reported as a persistent scam operation pretending to be from major UK mobile providers like Vodafone and O2, often using fake local numbers and foreign accents to sound legitimate. Callers offer fake discounts on contracts and refuse to stop calling even after being asked. Many victims note the calls come from spoofed or computer-generated numbers, sometimes appearing to originate from places like Scotland. The scammers seem to test if numbers are active and ignore TPS registrations. It’s widely advised to report all such calls to official police cybercrime systems, as these gangs use millions of numbers to continue their fraud, making typical blocking services less effective. The calls are frequently described as creepy, deceptive and clearly fraudulent.

As I don't have a Vodafone account myself, I naturally thought this woman with an Asian accent was up to no good. She claimed to be calling from Vodafone, saying she could reduce my contract by a whopping 40%.

This dude called my 15 year old son trying to sell some phone deal. I told him to take my kid’s number off his list but he flat out refused and said he’d keep ringing. Honestly, his voice sounded really weird and quite unsettling.

I didn’t answer the call. It’s pretty clear they’re just using some made-up number to make it look like it’s coming from the UK.

Got a call from somewhere called Strathpeffer in Scotland? I've got no mates or family up there. I just ignored it and they didn't bother leaving a voicemail or anything. Feels like one of those dodgy scam calls to me.

Couldn’t quite catch what they said, sounded like they had some kind of foreign accent mumbling all over the place.

Got a call from someone saying they were from 02, trying to sell me 30% off a contract for a year - total phishing scam. They were really pushy, kept ringing me back after I ended the call. I told them I knew it was fake and shut down the call, but they phoned again a couple of times. It only stopped once I firmly told them to never call me again. Honestly, just don’t waste your time talking to these people!

Got a call from this number like half an hour ago, defo an O2 scam trying to rip me off.

Got a call from someone saying they were from my mobile network, offering some kind of deal on phone contracts. Funny thing is, they didn’t even know which company I’m actually with! Definitely felt fishy, so I reckon it was a scam.

I didn’t pick up - the call was from a Scottish number.

I’m really wondering where they found my number from? It’s so annoying to get calls from strange people!

Got a call from someone claiming to be O2 and offering discounts. I told them I wasn’t interested and hung up. Then I phoned O2 myself just to check, and they said it definitely wasn’t them calling. Be careful!

Got a call from a lady with an Asian accent, sounded like she was in some call centre, saying she was from Vodafone. Thing is, I’m not even a Vodafone customer and I’m signed up with the TPS anyway, so it looked pretty dodgy to me. She was using a number that seemed local too, which made me even more suspicious. Probably just a scam or someone trying to see if my phone is active. Either way, felt very sketchy.
