6 yearsI've checked with Newham, and they confirmed that this number doesn't belong to them at all.Newham6 yearsI got a call from 02080495720 and I’m not entirely certain if it’s from Newham, so I’ve sent them an email to check. Since my number is ex-directory, I usually just put my mobile on websites when they ask for a contact number. It was a bit odd to get a call on my landline, but it could be the Newham Covid team getting in touch. For anyone thinking an evening ring might be dodgy, keep in mind they probably figure you’re at work during the day and it'll disturb you less to call later. Once I hear back from them, I’ll update whether this is legit or not.NewhamNewham COVID6 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Newham about Covid stuff, but after checking with Newham Council, it's clear they aren't behind it. Sounds like a phishing scam to me, so watch out!Newham CouncilNewhamCovid6 yearsI got a call from some dodgy number, it was definitely a scam. Not falling for it again!6 yearsI got a call just like that, even tho I’m nowhere near Newham. My phone number isn’t even on any public directories since I only use it for internet stuff. When my phone rang, I instantly felt something was off. Seriously, don’t fall for it, it’s definitely a scam. Never hand over your details to anyone, they’ll just sell it and you could end up getting scammed.Newham6 yearsReceived a call from this number earlier, some woman claiming she was ringing for the NHS about a covid19 survey. Honestly, if you pick up and get a bit fed up, just mess around and don’t give any real details. Looks like a total scam to me.NHS6 yearsthis number rang me and a woman claimed she was from newham council. she sounded quite polite but i told her i was tied up at the moment. she kept on saying she’d ring back at a better time and asked me to specify when that would be. since i couldn’t give her a time, she said she’d just give it another go later. i’ve gone and blocked the number now.Newham6 yearsI got a call around 9 in the evening, but as soon as I picked up, they just dropped the call.6 yearsGot a call just before nine this evening, after ignoring a few earlier ones I finally listened properly. The bloke was really clear, saying something like ‘Hello, I’m Michael Gold from the Department of Work and Pensions about form ff1. Can I speak to ************ please?’ I just hung up straight away. The voice sounded exactly the same each time I got called, so it’s clearly a recording. Dunno what their game is, but it’s weird that me, my partner and mother-in-law all got hit with the same call in one night! Hope folks are keeping their wits about them. Scammers are bad enough on a normal day, but right now it just feels even worse!Michael GoldDepartment of Work and Pensions6 yearsI’m a bit puzzled but this number rang me around 8:10 pm, which seemed strange. I decided to just block it in the end.6 yearsGot a call off 0208 049 5720 claiming they were from Newham social services or health about Covid and had some questions to ask. I just told them no thanks, but they kept pushing to call again. Definitely fake as I’m nowhere near Newham.NewhamCovid6 yearsGot a ring from this number earlier. The bloke was really polite and asked if I lived in Newham. Something felt a bit off though, so I just told him no thanks, I’m a bit busy. Definately going to block this number now.Newham6 yearsSaw a missed call from this number and rang back, only got an automated message saying they’d get back to me at some point.6 yearsReceived a ring from this number earlier, the lady said she was checking in on covid stuff in Newham, assuming I lived there. I don’t though. She came across as quite polite and sounded like it was a real survey about the virus. If I’d had a bit more time, I might have carried on with the chat, because I’m curious about what they’re up to with covid. Heard Newham’s being used as a sort of trial area for the track and trace programme, I think they called it that first!CovidNewham6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from Lewisham Council doin a Covid survey. Felt a bit iffy about it though.CovidLewishamCouncil6 yearsWasn't sure who was calling so I checked the number here first. Turned out suspicious, so I just blocked it.6 yearsJust got a call around 8.30pm from a woman claiming to be from some government office. Who makes official calls that late? Sounds dodgy to me, so I ended the call straight away. Definitely a scam.6 yearsHe gave me a ring and started asking about the covid app, then wanted to know if I still lived in Newham. I said I’ve actually moved now. After that, he asked for my name and email, but that was the end of it really.Newham6 yearsmy little sister just got a missed call from them, and no idea where they found her number from!6 yearsjust a heads up, dont answer calls from these numbers, its a scam. real council or government folks only ever get in touch by sending letters. keep that in mind!6 yearsGot a call from a woman asking for my details about some corona virus app. She was pretty insistent but couldn’t explain where she got my info from. I didn’t feel right about it, so I just hung up and blocked the number straight away.6 yearsgot a message with an attachment from this number but felt it was dodgy to open it. i tried to reply and ask who they were but for some reason my phone wouldn’t let me send any message back. definitely not taking any risks with opening whatever they sent!6 yearsHe called and claimed to be from some company but never actually mentioned which one. Then he started asking for my bank details, saying he needed to verify something. Definitely dodgy, total scammer.6 yearsI honestly don’t know if this is some kind of prank or what. Every time I pick up, the call just drops immediately. I’ve blocked that number, but then another one rings and does the exact same thing. It’s really annoying!6 yearsI got a call from this number saying they were from Newham Council about some COVID-19 stuff. They asked for my personal info, but I told them to just email me the form instead. Gave them my email, but never got anything through. Bit fishy if you ask me. 020 8049 5720Newham6 yearsI got a call from 02080495720 earlier, and the person said they were from the health department or something like that.
