Reports on phone number 02081236661
5 yearsGot a call from a Leeds 0113 number by a bloke who said he was from Amazon. He claimed that a David Thompson from Devon had used my account to purchase a phone costing £600. The guy told me his name was James Wilson and gave me this number, 0208 123 6661, to ring back and mentioned his Amazon ID was 1016. I checked my Amazon account and bank, and there was no sign of any phone being bought or money taken.LeedsAmazonJames WilsonDavid ThompsonDevon5 yearsHad a call from 02081236661 claiming to be from Amazon. Definitely sounds like a scam, so watch out!Amazon5 yearsI got a call from someone claiming that another person was attempting to steal £700 from my Amazon account. Seemed pretty dodgy to me.Amazon5 yearsSomebody claiming to be from Amazon Security told me to give this number a bell. Total rubbish, honestly. It’s exactly the same scam as the one mentioned in the post on 20th September.Amazon5 yearsSo far, those folks seem pretty decent to me. Been dealing with them alright. Big thanks to everyone involved!5 yearsSomeone called claiming to be from Amazon, but when I double-checked with Amazon, they said it wasn't them.Amazon5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Amazon, saying there was a security issue and they needed to get into my computer. Definitely felt dodgy to me.Amazon5 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with Amazon's security team, saying someone tried to buy a phone using my account. They then asked me to check an Amazon email that didn’t even exist. Pretty sure they were after my email and personal info. Total scam!Amazon5 yearsThis is the fourth time I've gotten a call from this number, and every single time it's a new tale.5 yearsSomeone pretending to be from the Immigration Service, claiming to be an admin officer, called wanting to discuss some recent online stuff.Immigration Service5 yearsJust a quick update. Even though I gave a wrong email address when I called, I still got an email! It was supposedly from Amazon [###], telling me to ring that number above about buying an iPhone for £1250.00. Quite suspicious if you ask me!Amazon5 yearsGot a call from a bloke claiming he worked at Amazon. He said they'd sent me an email to prove the call was legit. Thing is, I never got any email. When I asked him for the email address, it turned out to be totally off. Definitely a scam, no doubt about it.Amazon5 yearsI’d say avoid this number, it’s definitely dodgy. If you do answer, just mess around with whoever’s on the line - it’s quite amusing watching them lose their cool. But seriously, never share any personal info, just play it safe and have a laugh!5 yearsGot a call on my landline from a woman claiming to be from Amazon security. She told me someone had put through a £600 order on my account. She asked to get into my computer to stop it and also wanted access to my online banking. Felt really dodgy so I didn’t go along with it.Amazon5 yearsI got an email that said it was from Amazon, telling me to check a purchase and ring 0208 1236661 if I wanted to cancel it. Right after that, I got a call from 01202 874023, and they told me to turn on my computer so they could help me cancel the order. Seemed dodgy to me!Amazon5 yearsGot a call from a guy who said his name was John Hill and sounded Indian. He claimed he was ringing from my bank, telling me there was a suspicious payment of £700 on my account. He wanted me to confirm an account number, saying he’d sent an email earlier, but I never got anything in my inbox. The number he gave me was 02081763229, yet the call actually came from 02081236661. He was a bit pushy and rude, seemed like he was trying to intimidate me. After saying he was confusing me and goodbye, he still rang me three more times.John Hill5 yearsGot a call claiming I bought a phone for £1200 but the name didn’t match, and that it was from Kingswear, Devon. They put the order on hold but the date showed 1st Feb, which seemed fishy right away. They kept calling back and asked me to give them access to my computer to install some ‘correction software’ meant to prevent stuff like this. I knew it was dodgy from the beginning but played along to see what they’d do next. When I mentioned I’d call Amazon’s number myself, they just hung up.KingswearDevonAmazon5 yearsMy dad's been getting calls off someone saying a phone was bought on his computer or summat. They try to get him to link up his computer with them. They've been ringing him non-stop all morning long.5 yearsGot a call from a woman speaking with an Asian accent, saying she was from Amazon. She told me someone was trying to purchase a phone through my Amazon account. She then asked me to visit this site co[###] to supposedly change my computer’s ID, which sounded really suspicious but she was quite convincing.Amazon5 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Asian accent working at some call centre saying he was from Amazon. He claimed my account had been hacked because someone supposedly tried to buy a £700 smartphone using it. Said he blocked it for now. Kept pushing me to open a Windows pop-up, all while a dodgy Amazon-looking email was on my Outlook. I ended up just hanging up, looked up the number, then went straight to the official Amazon website to change my password. No sign of any £700 phone purchase at all in my account history.Amazon5 yearsIt was that same bloke Alex Hill again, tryna take over me computer. I had to dash out so he promised to ring me back Monday mornin. I’ve swapped all me passwords on PayPal and Amazon since those are the only places linked to me bank - I don't do any online bankin otherwise. These fellas really should be locked up but somehow they keep skippin justice, and the police we pay for don't seem bothered to help someone like me, an 82-year-old pensioner.Alex HillPayPalAmazon5 yearsSo far they've seemed alright, I reckon it was just a bit of confusion somewhere along the line. Just make sure you double-check things, lads.6 yearsGot a call on my home phone from someone saying they were Amazon, telling me a phone had been bought using my account and it seemed fishy. I told them I’d check with Amazon myself since we get loads of dodgy calls. They knew my name and address but nothing else, said they’d emailed me, but I never saw anything. They gave me a number to ring back on, so I decided to look it up first. Definitely just a scam trying to trick you into giving away your info.Amazon6 yearsGenuine folks for sure.6 yearsSomeone called claiming to be from VISA, saying my card had been used for online gambling. When I asked them to confirm the last two digits on the card, they got it wrong at first. Then they messed up my birth date a couple of times before finally getting it right. They told me to check my email but I said my laptop was being fixed - which it is. I’m using a borrowed one just to deal with this. They told me to call again once my computer is back up. I’ll just keep an eye on my card statement myself. Could be legit, but I'd rather not risk it.VISA6 yearsToday I got told to ring this number, but the bloke who called me first used a local dialling code. He gave me a postcode that was totally wrong, though he did get the name right. Really pushy chap, said he was from Microsoft and that there was some issue connected to Amazon. When I ended the call, he phoned back from another local number. He was after cash for some sort of system security. I said no thanks, and then he warned me my computer would stop working after a certain time, though I can't recall exactly when he said.MicrosoftAmazon6 yearsGot a call from someone saying there were weird charges on my Amazon account. They said they were a Microsoft Certified tech and somehow got onto my PC, installing Torpig and like, 9 other viruses before I managed to shut it down. The caller showed up as a local number (01494 715656) on my phone but they told me their actual number was 0208 123 6661.AmazonMicrosoft6 yearsGot a call on my home phone from what looked like a local Nottingham number. The person claimed someone in Dallas had hacked my Amazon account and said I needed to get on my computer so they could guide me through fixing it. When I asked for her number to call her later, she gave me this same one. She sounded really pushy and quite intimidating.NottinghamAmazonDallas6 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were from Amazon security, saying they'd blocked a £400 suspicious transaction on my account the night before. They mentioned they’d sent me an email about it. When I asked for a contact number to ring them back, they told me 0208 123 6661. I’ve since looked over my Amazon account, changed my password, and updated the two-step verification just to be safe.Amazon6 yearstoday i got a call from a guy named Alex Hill who claimed he was ringing from amazon about a phone order on my account. he then tried to push me into buying some lifetime insurance for £400. i told him flat out i couldnt afford that, then hung up. but he kept ringing me back non stop. felt like harassment!Alex HillAmazon6 yearsThey asked if they could get remote access to my gadgets so they could log into my online bank account.6 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be from ‘the system’ about it being hacked. They said their name was Alex Hill and started trying to pitch some lifetime anti-virus thing. Managed to trick my dad into opening his laptop so they could ‘check for intrusions’. He ended up clicking around in different apps, likely letting the scammer set up spyware or something dodgy.Alex Hill6 yearsSome bloke said he was from Amazon and convinced me to put TeamViewer on my laptop, said my system was hacked. Then he pushed me to buy Norton Anti-Virus, claiming it was a lifetime deal. Turns out it only lasts a year. I've been proper duped, and now I'm worried about using my computer for stuff like online banking. It’s been keeping me up all night!AmazonTeamViewer6 yearsI got a ring from 02081236661 saying they were from Amazon, telling me someone was trying to make a purchase on my account and I had to check my security. When I asked some questions, the bloke told me to call back on the same number to verify he was legit. It didn’t feel right, as I can’t imagine Amazon handling things like that over the phone. So, I didn’t bother calling back. Definitely seemed dodgy to me.Amazon6 yearsGot a call from someone with a foreign accent claiming they were from Amazon’s security team saying someone tried buying a phone using my account. After chatting for a bit, I told him I'd call Amazon security back and asked for his name, then he just hung up. Still haven’t checked with Amazon to see if it’s legit.Amazon6 yearsI got a call from someone pretending to work at Paypal, telling me my account had been compromised and I needed to follow their instructions. I told them I wasn’t interested and ended the call. After that, they sent me an email and tried calling me again.Paypal6 yearsReally decent folks, big thanks to Alex Hill!Alex Hill6 yearsBig thanks to Alex Hill, really nice folks.Alex Hill6 yearsI got a call from someone claiming my phone and tablet were at risk and offered some kind of special protection. When I asked a few questions and hinted it sounded dodgy, they just abruptly ended the call. Definitely felt like a scam to me.Submit Your Own Report (020 8123 6661)
