02071936402 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 02071936402 👆 is reported as a persistent scam involving calls from a number claiming to represent the Ministry of Justice, offering a £3,000 refund due to alleged bank overcharges. Callers, often with South Asian accents and call centre background noise, attempt to extract personal details or request upfront payments via gift cards or vouchers, typically around £150. The callers may use aggressive tactics or threaten recipients and sometimes claim a solicitor will visit with a cheque. Multiple reports highlight the calls as fraudulent, with no genuine government department conducting such outreach or requiring advance fees for refunds. Recipients are advised to ignore and block the number, never provide personal details or payments, and recognise it as a scam targeting vulnerable individuals.

Somebody rang, claiming to be from the Ministry of Justice. I couldn’t help myself and joked that they sounded more like the Ministry of Sound or the Ministry of Silly Walks. They just cut me off straight away - proper rude if you ask me!

So this bloke rings me up calling himself Jeffrey, saying my bank had charged me too much and I was owed some cash. I told him to bugger off and ended the call. I might be 90 years old but my wits are still sharp as ever!

I got a call from 02071936402, a person with an Asian accent claiming to be from the "Ministry of Justice." They told me I could claim £3000 for being charged too much by my bank. I told them straight away I knew it was a con. Then, the same number rang me again later on asking what I thought about the earlier call. I told them again it was a scam and that I’d already checked the number online. After that, the caller warned me, saying “you’ll regret this.”

This morning I got a call from a guy with a pretty thick Asian accent who said he was Gary Smith from the Ministry of Justice. He was telling me I’m owed £3000 for bank fees that were supposedly overcharged between 2004 and 2009. Sounded a bit dodgy to me!

Got a call from someone speaking with a South Asian accent - I think they said they were from the "government finance department," saying we'd been charged too much in bank fees. Sounded fishy from the start, as I don’t believe such a department exists. To me, it’s just a scam by some dodgy group aiming to steal bank info and clean out accounts. Definitely a phishing attempt.

Got a call from someone claiming to be from the Ministry of Justice, saying the banks had shared my info with them and that I could get some money back. You could hear loads of people chatting in the background, like a call centre or something.

Best thing is just to put the phone down and ignore these con artists!

I keep getting calls from these guys, on and off all the time. It definitely sounds like it’s coming from some kind of call centre. How is it even possible that they can’t be traced? It’s so frustrating.

I got a call from someone claiming to be from the ‘Ministry of Justice’ wanting to speak to my missus. I asked what it was about, but all they said was they needed to speak to her again. I told them the Ministry of Justice doesn’t ring people up, warned that the call was being recorded, and said I’d report it to the cops. They hung up straight away.

Got a call not long ago from some woman claiming to be from the Ministry of Justice. They were pushing that typical story about owing about £3000. She tried to sound proper by naming her department and even said the floor they worked on in Westminster. Totally fishy if you ask me. Honestly, it’s sad because I reckon plenty of folks who are more vulnerable will end up getting caught out by this sort of scam.

It’s a bit worrying to think these scammers must be making some cash or they wouldn’t bother with all these calls, right? From what people have said here, it looks like it’s not too hard to spot the scam, but honestly, they’re sneakier than we give them credit for. So yeah, just watch out everyone, don’t let them catch you out.

Got a call from a woman saying she was from the Ministry of Justice, saying I was owed a £3000 refund. I told her to just send it through the post since she somehow had my address. She also asked for £150 for some kind of tax. Honestly, if she was standing right in front of me, the only thing she’d get is a punch in the face. Can’t stand these scammers.

This number keeps ringing me up, saying it’s from some government claims team. They say I’m owed a £3000 refund for bank fees that were supposedly charged by mistake. Honestly, what a load of rubbish - I’ve never been charged any fees by my bank!

Just got a call like this a moment ago! They said a government solicitor would show up at my house by 2pm tomorrow to hand over a £3000 cheque because apparently I was wrongly charged interest. I asked if they could send me a letter first to prove it was legit, but they said the solicitor delivers the letter in person. Then they told me to buy a £150 paysafe card from my local shop, and the solicitor would stamp it and give me a cheque that I’m supposed to take to the bank. They even tried to scare me that if I don’t accept the cheque, the government will automatically take £75 from my bank as a cancellation fee... what complete rubbish! Stay well clear of this scam!

Got a call from a guy with an accent and loads of noise in the background, claiming he was from the Ministry of Justice. I didn't bother listening much, just told him to send me something in writing and then ended the call. Pretty sure it was a scam because I’ve never heard the Ministry of Justice ring up like that.

Got a call from someone claiming to be Julie Shaw, a solicitor, saying I'd get a one-time £3000 payment from the Ministry of Justice. She said she'd be at my place in about 2 hours with some documents. When I asked her twice for the reference number, she just hung up on me. The number she called from was 02071936402 - same as the one she claimed as the reference. The voice sounded East Asian and I could hear what sounded like a noisy call centre in the background!

My elderly uncle got a few phone calls claiming his bank supposedly owed him £3000 from way back between 2005 and 2009. They said a lawyer would visit with a cheque and some papers to sign, but first he had to hand over a £150 cheque for "tax" fees. He told them he would only pay once the £3000 cheque had cleared with his bank. After that, they didn't bother him anymore. The bank itself confirmed there's no money due and no one is representing them in this matter. Definitely a scam.

Got calls from them three different times this morning, my partner picked up and they claimed he was owed £3000. They then gave him this number. I looked it up on Google, got in touch with the guy and told him it’s definitely a con.

Got a call from someone claiming to be with the Ministry of Justice, said I owed about 3000 in back taxes. The woman on the phone, called Julie Shaw and said she was a solicitor. She told me I’d only have to pay 150 now, but weirdly, she wanted me to buy an iTunes card to sort it out! Seemed fishy right away.

Got a call from some bloke claiming to be from the ‘ministry of justice’, saying they’re sorting out a payment for us. They told me to go get an Amazon voucher worth £125, then call them back once I’ve got it. After that, apparently a solicitor will show up at our house with a cheque for a big amount supposedly owed to us. Felt a bit dodgy if you ask me.
