Phone number βοΈ 02038180194 π is reported as linked to persistent scam calls centred around fake competition wins, often involving a James Bond-themed word search prize. Callers claim recipients have entered or been shortlisted in contests they never participated in, then request payment - typically a small fee for postage - to receive "free" puzzle books or lottery tickets. Requests for bank or credit card details are common, raising significant fraud concerns. Many report polite, persistent callers who become aggressive if challenged, alongside calls featuring silence or hang-ups. Some victims have had to cancel cards due to suspected fraud attempts. Callers sometimes impersonate official bodies like Channel 4 or HMRC. Overall, these calls are widely regarded as deceitful attempts to obtain personal and financial information; users are advised to remain cautious, never share details, and report such incidents to authorities promptly.
Reports on phone number 02038180194
5 yearsI received a call from 02038180194 inquiring whether I'd participated in some sort of crossword competition. They made it sound like I’d hit the jackpot! When I told them I hadn’t entered anything, I just held my tongue, eager to hear their response. But they hung up on me instead. Curious, I rang them back, and the individual on the other end mentioned something about prize puzzle winners. It certainly has the whiff of a scam, if you ask me!5 yearsJaden rang my mother-in-law saying she’d won some lottery tickets and a word search book, but they wanted £1.95 for postage. Channel 4, what’s going on here? Are you actually sharing people’s contact info?JadenChannel 46 yearsI got a call on 21/10/20 about a James Bond word search contest. They said they'd send me a book and £40 worth of lottery tickets. I asked how I could be sure they were legit, and they offered their business ID. I told them that ID could be fake too. They claimed they couldn’t be on ITV or Sky if they were a scam. I said I’m not comfy giving my info over the phone, so I’d pass. They just said alright, good luck in the draw then.James BondITVSky6 yearsKeeps ringing me non stop, really annoying!6 yearsGot a recorded call claiming to be from HMRC saying there’s tax fraud linked to me. It told me to press 1, but I just hung up. I’ve read if you actually press a number, it can charge your mobile like a premium rate call. Could end up being really pricey for just a quick ring.HMRC6 yearsVery polite, kept asking for extra cash to carry on. Just check the company on Companies House, it’s free and you’ll see everything you need.Companies House6 yearswynnington wordsearch LEEDS LS1-2TW, SEEMS LIKE A SCAM. ASKING FOR 1.95GBP. BE CAREFUL!!!!!!WynningtonLeeds6 yearsGot a call earlier from WYNNINTON-WORDSEARCH claiming I’d won some crossword contest but needed to pay a fee to send two free magazines. They asked for my card info - luckily my mate Channell warned me, so I had to cancel my credit card. They asked for my details twice, felt really dodgy. Don’t fall for it, looks like a scam to me.WYNNINTONWORDSEARCHChannell 46 yearsSaid I was a finalist in some James Bond word search contest. Actin all nice asking what id do with the prize money. Then they tried to sell me their word search book sayin I just gotta pay £1.95 for postage and then asked for my card info. Watch out folks.6 yearsThey said they was from HMRC and told me to press 1 or I'd be arrested for tax fraud, like arrest would happen straight away with a warrant or something if I didn't. Blocked and binned it.HMRC6 years020 3962 5206 called me, claiming I'd won some James Bond prize draw. They said I needed to pay £1.90 for postage to get free word search books, but then they asked for my bank details. Totally felt like a scam to me.James Bond6 yearsβ+44 20 3962 5206β¬ - Same scammer as mentioned before, this number is a total scam. Contacted on 4/5/20.6 years01424797531 called me saying I had to pay £1.95 for royal mail to post some word search books. The lady said her name was Alana and gave me that number claiming it was their customer service. I refused to pay anything.AlanaRoyal Mail6 yearsSomebody was speaking what sounded like Chinese or something, I just ended the call, felt a bit weird.7 yearsI got a call just like the others mentioned, and they asked me for my card details. I felt it was dodgy and hung up straight away. Cheers for the info and thanks to everyone who shared their experiences too.7 yearsLovely folks on the line, really great people to chat with.7 years02038180194 called me claiming I’d been selected for a TV wordsearch competition (which is rubbish since I never signed up, plus the phone charges are way too much). The bloke then said I had to pay £1.95 for postage on a book of puzzles - I told him no thanks. He went on about a prize draw with £10,000 to be won! When I asked how many others had been chosen, he suddenly had no idea. Definitely feels like a scam!7 yearsThey just stayed quiet and then hung up.7 yearsNo reply, just ended the call.7 yearsGot a call about entering the Wordpuzzle main draw. They wanted my card details to cover £1.95 postage for a Wordpuzzle book. I said no. Seems like I’m not alone in dodging what might be a scam. Keep uploading these numbers, folks. It really helps loads of people from getting ripped off.7 yearsThese scammers keep going just coz most folks dont take the time to report them. If every scam call, text or email was reported to the police or NFIB, they’d be swamped and kinda forced to act. To report, just google ‘Action Fraud’, hit the ‘police.uk’ link and find the ‘reporting’ button. Then follow the steps carefully. Loads of people won’t have lost money so they’ll just mark it as phishing, but some will log it as a crime.7 yearsI once took part in a TV contest where the answer was James Bond, so I suppose this number is linked to my text reply. On my phone, it shows as 'possible scam'. I've been ignoring it but they kept calling. Today, it rang while my phone was in my bag and I must have accidentally picked up. I could hear loads of voices but no one spoke back! This really shouldn't happen, especially when they're asking for bank info. How do they manage to pull this off???????James Bond7 yearsWhat a sham! There’s no way I actually won that £10,000 - it’s all just a ruse. I certainly won’t be ringing them back. Just a bunch of con artists, if you ask me!7 yearsGot the same call on my phone claiming I'd won a contest if I said James Bond. I just ended the call right away and blocked the number.James Bond7 yearsI got a call on my mobile on 19th December around 10.50am, but I didn't quite catch the name of the company. A bloke with an English accent said I'd supposedly entered some competition where the answer was 'James Bond'. He told me the call was to confirm I'd made it into the main draw. Then he asked if I enjoyed puzzles? I think I might've entered some quiz on my phone a while back, but it was just on a whim and puzzles aren’t really my thing. I told him that, he just said 'thanks' and confirmed again I'd be in the main draw. We then said our goodbyes.James Bond7 yearsIt’s that wordsearch game on the telly claiming you’ve won a free shot at £10,000. You call and give them your info, then they send you letters saying you’ve got to enter another draw which costs around £7. Had a phone call from them last night as well. Total scam in my opinion.7 yearsGot a call saying I’d won a £10,000 prize. I was already aware of it, but then the woman asked if I wanted to buy a word search book for £1.95! She even asked for my bank info!!! I didn’t give anything and told her to call back later! Looked up the number she rang from, and it didn’t match the company name (churchcastle) I’m 64 years old and thankfully, I’m sharp enough to spot a scam like this!!! Be careful out there!7 yearsI just got a call from this number. When I picked up, it was completely silent. I tried calling back but it said the number wasn't recognised.7 yearsThey've rang me a few times on my work phone. When I rang back, it just sounded like the number had been cut off. Seems like spam to me! I've gone ahead and blocked it.7 yearsThis number keeps ringing me on my phone. My app flagged it as likely spam. I don’t pick up calls from anyone not saved in my contacts. So, I’ve blocked it now.7 yearsAn individual from this number contacted me, claiming to be from my bank, insisting that I verify my password, account number, and sort code. They mentioned there was some dubious activity regarding my account and urged me to confirm my information. I promptly disconnected the call. After that, I contacted my bank directly. I’ve now blacklisted this number, as it was clearly a scam. Just a warning to everyone-stay vigilant! The number in question is 02038180194.7 yearsI received a call from this number, and the person on the other end suspiciously warned me to keep an eye on my bank account. Then, shockingly, they mentioned something about cleaning out my account and had the audacity to laugh before abruptly ending the call. Just a heads up for everyone out there - please stay vigilant! STAY VIGILANT! STAY VIGILANT! - Caller: 020381801947 yearsI received a phone call from a rather menacing voice, one that didn't beat about the bush. They boasted about their so-called expertise in scamming and had the audacity to mock me with laughter. To top it all off, they referred to me with some rather colourful language. I chose to keep my cool, said nothing, and simply ended the call. Yet, they had the nerve to ring me a second time! I promptly blocked the number without a second thought. - the caller was 02038180194.7 yearsThe call came through but there was utter silence on the other end before they promptly ended the call. Definitely a scammer! Number: 02038180194.7 yearsHere we go again, another rubbish SPAMMER (cant even get subscribe right - what a muppet).7 yearsThis number has rung me loads over the last few weeks, but they always just drop the call. Maybe they were expecting someone more vulnerable. Just a warning to stay cautious.7 yearsGot a ring earlier from a really nice bloke on the phone, said I’d joined some competition, which I have. Then he said I’d won something, like part of a winners group, and he was sending me a word search book. Told him I wasn’t sharing my bank details, plus I can’t even find my card right now. He said he’d call again at six tonight, insisted it wasn’t a scam and gave me some info to check online. Still not sure what to make of it honestly π7 yearsI’m not sure, they just stayed silent on the phone and then suddenly ended the call.7 years02038180194 I got called about a quiz book for £1.95 postage after doing a tv competition. I told them I’d send a cheque or postal order π but they weren’t having any of it!! They insisted on Visa or MasterCard only. Not sure if it’s a scam or legit, honestly what a strange world we’re inπ€π€¨7 yearsGot a call today from a nice lady saying I’d won a James Bond competition for £10,000. I think I did enter it ages ago. Then she asked if I wanted to sign up for a word puzzle book to get more chances to win. I said no thanks, and she was really polite, just said no problem and goodbye.James Bond7 yearssomeone rang up sayin my mum won some kinda contest and asked for her visa card info for postage or somthin. she didn't fall for it.7 yearsI've just experienced something quite similar myself.7 yearsI received a call from this number, but it was just dead air on the line before they abruptly disconnected. - number: +44 20 3818 01948 yearsNice bloke asking about ISAs.
