02038295285 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 02038295285 👆 is reported as a persistent scam involving callers impersonating O2, Virgin Media, or EE, often featuring foreign accents, particularly South Asian. Callers falsely claim urgent issues like SIM card updates or offer discounts to entice recipients into revealing personal details such as email addresses or verification codes. Genuine account information is typically absent, and refusals often trigger rudeness or hang-ups. The scam may include sending spoofed O2 texts to appear legitimate. Multiple unsolicited calls and emails are common, with victims urged to never provide sensitive information and to verify suspicious contacts directly with official providers. Blocking the number and reporting to the provider or authorities is highly advised to avoid falling victim to these fraudulent practices.
Reports on phone number 02038295285
3 yearsThey claimed to be from O2, saying they needed to update my software and would send a new SIM card. Total scam. Weird thing is, they even managed to send me a text with a code on my official O2 messaging app, then tried to get me to give them that code plus my email. BE CAREFUL! It can easily trick you into thinking they're legit O2 staff because of that! I rang O2 straight away and they confirmed it was a con job. If you’re unsure, always ask for their details and ring O2 directly to check who you’re really speaking to.3 yearsGot a call on 20/3/2024 from a mobile number, female with what sounded like an East Asian accent, said something about O2. I just hung up straight away.3 yearsGot six calls from this number, answered three of them and they were pretty annoying. They also sent me an email trying to phish info, claimed I had to change my O2 password or something. Proper hassle.3 yearsSomeone rang me pretending to be from O2, saying I was eligible for a random discount. Didn’t even wait, just ended the call straight away.3 yearsIts a scam, dont fall for it! I told the person to quit ringing me as I aint on 02 and to remove me from theyre calling list. Watch out everyone!O23 yearsEvery day, I get more than a hundred calls from 020 numbers, but I never pick up. It's nonstop.3 yearsI just got a call here in Birmingham from someone named Emma claiming to be from O2. I told her I wasn’t interested quite politely and then ended the call. I’m not even an O2 customer, so obviously wasn’t keen. Blocked the number straight away.BirminghamEmmaO23 yearsGot called by them twice, but when I answered, it was just some silence and a voice repeatedly saying “hello” over and over. So I just stayed quiet and let them keep going for ages, haha. If they wanna be pestering me, I’m happy to mess around with their time a bit as payback! 😆3 yearsSCAM alert! Got a call from a woman speaking with an Indian accent, claiming to be from O2. She told me they had my bank info, so I asked her to prove it, and she just hung up on me.FRAUD ALERT3 yearsI got a call from +44 20 3829 5285, and the +44 made me think it was meant to be from the UK, but I reckon it's a dodgy call centre overseas. Some bloke with an Indian accent claimed he was from T Mobile. I knew right away it was a scam since I’m not a T Mobile customer. I told him I wasn’t interested and that I thought he was working for a scam call centre in India. He kept pushing for a bit, but when I kept saying no, he got rude and told me to shut up before just hanging up on me. Honestly, I feel sorry for anyone more vulnerable who might fall for these con artists.UKT - MobileIndia3 yearsThe number was unfamiliar so I just left it and didn’t pick up.3 yearsReceived a call from someone claiming they were with Virgin Media O2, saying my SIM would get blocked and they needed to send me a new one. They kept asking for my email to ‘confirm my info’. Problem is, I’m not with Virgin or O2 at all. The person on the phone got really annoyed and started swearing when I said no, then just cut the call. Definitely a scam.Virgin Media O2VirginO23 yearsThis number called me claiming to be from O2 and offering a 20% discount on my bill! I played along for a bit, but I don’t even have an O2 contract. They said they'd send me a link by email to activate the discount. Then, they asked for my email “just to confirm.” I told them they must already have my email if they were legit, so I wasn’t giving it out. I told them it was a spam call since I’m not an O2 customer. Right after that, they hung up!3 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Asian accent claiming she worked for O2 and was trying to give me a 30% discount compared to my usual phone company. When I told her I thought it was dodgy and that I wasn’t interested, she sounded a bit irritated. She kept pushing me a bit more, then just cut the call out of the blue.O23 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent trying to sell me a discount on my O2 contract. She asked me to verify my email so she could send a link and a code, which instantly sounded dodgy. I knew right away it was a scam and ended the call. Then she kept ringing me again, so in the end, I just blocked the number.3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with 02 and had a discount deal for me. As soon as they wanted me to give my password, I just ended the call. I tried calling them back about seven times but ended up blocking the number after that.3 yearsComplete rip off from 02! They called me claiming I had some ancient 02 SIM card. Then they started asking for my email, but insisted they weren’t after my bank info or anything. I simply told them to send over a new SIM instead. After that, the guy sounded proper irked and threatened to block my phone! What a joke.3 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent claiming she worked for Virgin Media. The thing is, Virgin Media don’t call you unless you’ve booked a slot with them first. I asked her straight up if she was really from Virgin, and then she just ended the call. Pretty dodgy if you ask me.Virgin Media3 yearsGot a call claiming to be from O2 networks trying to give me a free SIM card. Asked for my email, but I wasn’t having any of it!3 yearsGot a call from a scammer, but they just dropped the phone straight away.3 yearsGot a call from O2 today claiming I could slash my bill by 40%, sounded a bit dodgy to me.3 yearsHad a call from an Indian lady claiming to be with O2. I told her she’d already rang me before, then just chuckled and she ended the call straight away.3 yearsGot a voicemail but it was just background noise from an office, nothing useful.3 yearsTotally a scam, that call. The person on the phone claimed to be from O2 and said they could offer me better deals on my account. But when I asked how much I was paying right now, they just went silent and ended the call. Felt like they had no clue and definitely weren’t legit O2 staff.O23 yearsGot a weird call from someone saying they were from O2, even though I’ve never had an account with them. Seemed pretty dodgy to me.3 yearsGot another call from someone pretending to be HMRC. Seriously, what's going on with these scammers?HMRC3 yearsTotal spam. They say they’re O2 and your SIM card will stop working soon. When you ask who they are, they even send a fake “confirmation code” text pretending to be from O2 UK. But they can’t tell you who they’re actually speaking to or what your plan is, claiming it’s “for security reasons” or something like that.O2O2 UK3 yearsGot a call from an unknown number but decided not to pick up. Definitely wasn't expecting it.3 yearsJust more junk calls.3 yearsGot a call pretending to be from O2, total scam.

Later checked here and realised it was a scam, so I’ve blocked it now.3 yearsThey claimed to be from 02 saying they’re sending a new sim card due to system upgrades. Yeah, right.

Some woman with an accent said she was from O2, total scam, definitely blocking her!!3 yearsGot a call from this number claiming to be O2, saying I could get 20% off my monthly bill. When I asked for info, she didn’t have any of my details like a real O2 rep would. Then she tried to 'connect' me to a supervisor to approve the discount - total scam, definitely not O2.3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be O2 with a 20% discount on my monthly plan. She didn’t ask for any info to verify me at all. When I told her I’d rather sort it out in store, she got quite nasty and tried insisting she’d put me through to her manager to approve it. Definitely felt like a complete scam.3 yearsMy kid got a call on their phone from someone pretending to be EE. They wanted me to verify my email, but when I asked what email they had, they just kept telling me to say it first. I told them straight up that they were ringing a child’s phone and it sounded like a scam, which seemed to confuse the caller a bit. Then they switched to asking for the main account holder's info. I ended the call and blocked the number once I checked it out, and apparently, they’re not even pretending to be from O2 anymore.EE3 yearsSomeone rang saying my O2 SIM was about to expire in a week but there wasn’t any replacement they could offer.

Proper nasty stuff.EE3 yearsGot a call from an Asian guy who claimed to be from O2, telling me my sim would get blocked in a week. I just said cheers and ended the call. Tried ringing back a couple of hours later but no luck getting through.3 yearsThey said they were from O2 and that my SIM was gonna expire in 7 days, offered to connect me to their tech team to fix it. I ended the call, but then got called right back asking why I’d cut off. I told them the number they used isn’t an official O2 one, and they said it was the “tech team” number, but it’s not on any list! Definitely SPAM - best to block it.3 yearsThey claim to be O2 but I actually work for VMO2, it’s a total scam.
