02078607122 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 02078607122 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance number associated with fraudulent activity masquerading as various UK local councils, including Wakefield, Tower Hamlets, Southwark, Oldham, Brighton and Hove, Barnet, and others. Callers claim to conduct surveys, often outside reasonable hours, and pressure for personal information, such as postcodes or household details, without proper identification. Many users describe silent calls, hang-ups when questioned, or evasive behaviour, indicating scam intent. Vulnerable individuals, particularly the elderly, may be targeted to extract sensitive data. Legitimate councils rarely conduct unsolicited phone surveys in this manner, and callers often refuse to confirm their identity or source of data. It is strongly advised not to answer, provide information, or return calls from this number and to consider blocking it to avoid potential harm.

Some guy called me from this number with a really strong Eastern European accent, saying he was from Tower Hamlets Council doing some data collection.

I work in financial compliance and can’t see those well-known firms being linked to such an unprofessional group. I reckon they’re just fishing for your details to sell them on.
