Got a call from the number 02039677026, this guy was really well spoken and went through the usual spiel. He said I’d answered a “James Bond question” right and was entered into a draw to win 10 grand. Then he asked for my credit card to charge £1.95, so they could send me a few puzzle prizes that I’d apparently won. I said no thanks and told him I was hanging up. Oddly, he already had my full name and address, though I did accidentally give my postcode. Now I’m a bit worried if I’ve been scammed or if my identity’s at risk. Just a heads up, watch out for this one!

Yesterday, my mum got caught up in a scam with Wordsearch. She suffers from dementia and has fallen for similar tricks in the past. The troubling part is that there's a £1.95 postage fee showing as pending on her bank statement, but the bigger concern is those scammers now have her updated bank info. I’m going to keep a really close eye on her account from now on.

I put my name in for that competition too and got a call back saying i was shortlisted. They didn’t say anything about having to buy a book though. If it was all a scam, why would ITV still carry on advertising it on tv?

They told me I got the answer right, James Bond was the guess, and said I’d be entered into some kind of draw in June.

I got a call from them too, saying I’d been picked for a £17,000 prize because of the James Bond question. When they mentioned I had to pay £1.95 for postage, I asked if I could call them back later. The bloke said he was new and would check with his boss to give me the number. Then, after a short wait, the phone just cut off. Definitely watch out for this one!

Got a call just after a break on ITV about a James Bond word search competition. They claimed I’d made it to the next stage and could get a word search book full of chances to win cash, but they wanted me to cover the postage and asked for my bank info. If this rings you, best just hang up straight away!

I got a message saying I made it to the final of some word search contest, but then they started asking for my bank info to send these word search books. Honestly, don’t share your bank details with anyone, even if they claim it’s from ITV. It’s a total scam, keep your guard up!

So I took part in this wordsearch contest on ITV4 hoping to bag £17,500. They rang me but I missed the call. Bit odd that they'd ask for bank info right? I'd say watch out for this one. If you do get told you’ve won, just ask them to post a cheque instead.

So I got a call earlier claiming I’d made it to the last round for a £17,000 James Bond wordsearch competition on TV. Sounded legit since I did enter it ages ago. The bloke asked if I wanted the book for a small postage fee, and I said no. He was nice about it, wished me good luck with the final draw, and then hung up. Fingers crossed I actually win now, haha!

I got a call from someone claiming I’d won a book in a contest, but then they asked for my credit card info to cover postage. I told them I’d sort payment once the book turned up, and then they just ended the call! Feels like a scam or a dodgy sales pitch to me.

This morning I got a ring from 02039850002. The woman on the other end knew my full name and where I live, plus she mentioned the exact date I signed up for that TV contest. Then she started trying to sell me a book costing £1.95 and asked for my bank info. I told her no thanks.

Received a ring from 02039850002 and decided to call back. The bloke said I'd made it to the final round of some draw happening on 26th June and wanted my name. I wasn’t having it and asked him to send me a letter to prove I was even part of this draw (shouldn’t everyone be included automatically, with winners just getting told?). He got all annoyed I wasn’t giving in and just ended the call.

Had the exact same experience. I just told them I wasn’t interested in the book and refused to share my card information.

This person sounded really believable, claiming they were from ITV and telling me I’d won a word search contest. They said they’d send me some prizes through the post, but I had to pay £1.90 for postage using my debit card. I didn’t want to share my bank info though, even though they sounded quite convincing. I’ve since emailed ITV to check if the call was legit or if it was just a scam.

Hey, I came across your message about that word search contest. I got a call like that too, saying I’d won some lottery tickets and a book, but they asked for £1.99 to cover postage. Sounds a bit dodgy to me. Did you get anything actually sent through or is it best to just ignore the whole thing? Cheers!
6 years
This number just rang me and it felt a bit off, so I told them I'd check with my husband first. After reading what others have said here, I reckon I’ll just say no. No chance I’m sharing my bank info with someone I don’t know at all.

So this bloke rings me up sayin I’ve nailed a question in some ITV contest, somethin about James Bond poppin up in a word search. He reckons I’ve won a free book and some lottery tickets, but they want a pound ninety nine. When I asked him to email me the info, he goes, “Nah, we don’t do that.” Felt a bit dodgy to me.

Got a call from some firm named TV Wordsearch claiming I’m one of their finalists for a draw happening on 26th June. They tried to push me into buying a book for £1.95 supposedly to get extra chances to win. I told them no thanks - not handing over my card details on a call. I said if I really am a finalist, I’d just wait and see if a cheque turns up through the post in June.

I took part in a wordsearch contest I saw on telly, and they told me I was in a draw scheduled for 26th June. Then they asked if I fancied a free book of competitions, but said they’d need my bank info to cover the £1.50 postage. I decided not to go for the book in the end.

Something similar happened to me last week. I entered a word search contest I'd seen advertised on TV. After a while, I got a text from them inviting me to join another competition. I just ignored it. Then today, they rang asking for my payment info to send me a book, which would cost £1.99. I asked them if they were genuinely handing out £17,500, why would they want £1.99 from me? It all felt off and I didn’t share any more details. The woman on the phone couldn’t really convince me it was legit either.

Just got a call from 02039850002 and they already had my name, address, and even the competition I supposedly entered - and it’s the only one I can think of! They said I’ve won something but didn’t ask for any bank info, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed. I’ll update you all if anything comes of it, fingers crossed xx

Got a call and just said hi, but nobody answered. I stayed on the line for a bit but gave up and ended the call. After seeing other people's stories, I remember doing a wordsearch for a TV ad not long ago, so I'm guessing that was who it was.

so today i saw a missed call from 02039850002, last week i joined a tv wordsearch contest and the day after that they sent me a text about other competitions to take part in.

Whenever I enter a competition on ITV, this number rings me straight away. I never pick up but they leave a message saying I’ve won a prize and to ring them back. The weird thing is they call before the actual prize draw date, so it’s clear there’s no real prize. ITV really ought to put a stop to this nonsense.

I took part in a TV ad contest and got the right answer, but didn’t end up winning anything. Since then, they keep calling and sending me letters, pushing me to join more contests. These new ones are way more expensive than the first entry and honestly, the chance of winning seems like one in a million. It feels like a bit of a rip-off really.

So, I got a call earlier where they actually knew my name, which freaked me out a bit. Turns out they were right about me entering some TV contest a few weeks back. But things got dodgy when they started asking me for my bank info just to send over a “free” word search puzzle book! Definitely didn’t trust that.

Can someone explain where these robocallers even find our numbers? It’s so annoying! The UK really ought to get tougher on cold calling, maybe even ban it completely. Sick of all these telesales and telemarketing calls - they should just make those kind of calls illegal!

I got a call from this number earlier but it just rang out and no voicemail or anything left. Saw a quite similar number pop up on my phone a few days ago too, seems like it might be one of those marketing firms? I'm a bit wary to ring back cause I’ve no clue who it is - probably just some automated caller checking if the number’s live or something.

Seems like one of those crossword contest tricks to me. The caller comes across as quite genuine initially, but before you know it, they want your card info to cover a £1.50 shipping fee for a puzzle book. Definitely don’t hand over your bank details!

This 02039850002 number has been ringing me loads lately. The person on the other end sounds like they’re speaking Chinese, but it’s all just nonsense, like a jumbled up message. I hung up straight away. Then it rang again but I ignored it. Shortly after, I found a voicemail waiting, and it was just as muddled and confusing. Since then, I’ve had even more calls and voicemails coming through. It’s getting seriously annoying now, especially since I’ve just got two more missed calls from my landline. Proper fed up with it!
