02081334214 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 02081334214 👆 is reported as a scam number where callers, often claiming to be from the Ministry of Justice or financial ombudsman, inform individuals they are owed money due to bank overpayments. The callers typically insist on paying a fee via iTunes vouchers to release the funds, which is a known fraud tactic. Many victims mention an Indian-accented caller using various names and showing some personal details to appear legitimate. Vulnerable and elderly people are frequent targets, with some callers aggressively pursuing payments or continuing contact despite requests to stop. Legitimate organisations do not request fees or payments by voucher and do not call unexpectedly to offer refunds. Users are strongly advised not to share any personal or bank information and to ignore such calls.

9 yearsSome scammer claimed I should get £3500, but I’m still waiting for it to show up.9 yearsToday my dad got a call from some bloke with an Indian accent who said his name was Sam Grant and claimed to be ringing from the Ministry of Justice Claims Regulations Management Unit. He said my dad was due £3500 back in bank fees but had to pay £175 in taxes first through an i-Tunes card. The caller also told him a solicitor would be in touch soon and a cheque was on its way. Lucky for me, my dad checked with me before handing over any info to the guy. I then phoned them up pretending to be interested, and when they answered calling themselves the Ministry of Justice, I asked where they were located and for an email contact. Their evasive answers made it obvious it was a con. After warning my dad not to pick up or respond to any calls, I rang the number again and asked for Sam Grant. The person who answered was a different voice from before but still claimed to be Sam Grant. It was such a dodgy setup.Sam GrantMinistry of Justice Claims Regulations Management UnitMinistry of Justice9 yearsMy elderly mate, around 85, got a call supposedly from Thomas King, a solicitor saying she was owed £2,500 because her bank had apparently overcharged her. The call came from this very number. They claimed to be from the Ministry of Justice, some ‘claims, resolution and management department’ they said! They asked for her bank details, but thankfully she kept her wits about her and didn’t hand over any info. I tried ringing back the number myself and got some nonsense answers. These people seriously need to be put to a stop.Thomas KingMinistry of Justice9 yearsAn Indian bloke calling himself Sam Grant rang my dad, claiming he was from the Ministry of Justice and that Dad had a tax refund because of some loan he’d taken out. He convinced him to spend £150 on iTunes vouchers, and if I hadn’t stepped in, he was about to lose another £450. He insisted Dad needed to pay a solicitor to get the money. When I told him to leave Dad alone, he started swearing and said he’d ring back. After I blocked his number, he just called from somewhere else. Eventually, my dad had to unplug his phone completely, which is awful because now no one else can get through either. It’s really taking a toll on him. How can people be so cruel?Sam GrantMinistry of Justice9 yearsDont give this guy any of your bank info, its a total scam. Im gona wait till my phone bill comes to check how much this call has cost me.9 yearsI got a call from someone with a kinda Asian accent, claiming I once took out a home improvement loan. When I asked where he got that info, he said Lloyds bank told him. Thing is, I’ve never had any loan with Lloyds. Eventually, he admitted he was wrong about the whole thing. Pretty obvious it was a scam.Lloyds BankLloyds9 yearsGot a really odd call from this number earlier. They somehow knew all my bank info and told me they were gonna put £2,500 into my account out of the blue! This stuff is getting crazy.9 yearsSo, on a public holiday, this bloke rang me claiming he was from the "Ministry of Justice". Seriously, who from the government works on a bank holiday? I just put the phone down. He kept calling though, and after a few attempts, I answered. Turns out, he said my bank supposedly owes me £3,500 and some solicitor was meant to come round to hand it over. The man on the phone, who had an Indian accent, already had my address and date of birth, and kept warning me not to give out my bank details - like I ever would. I'm quite curious if this so-called "solicitor" actually shows up. When I pressed him about any hidden catches, he insisted there were none, except I'd need to cough up £175 for taxes!Ministry of Justice9 yearsHonestly, this was clearly a scam! Real government offices don’t ring you up from some call centre. I told them to post me the info since I "don’t have a computer" (which isn’t true), but they said no because nobody else had asked for it like that. Totally dodgy!9 yearsAn elderly family member got a phone call saying he was about to get £3000 from the Financial Ombudsman for paying too much interest on a loan. The strange part is, he’s never even taken out a loan! Luckily, he didn’t share any info and passed the call over to me since I deal with his stuff. They had a go with me as well, but no luck!Financial Ombudsman9 yearsToday I got a call from someone claiming to be Steven Anderson, saying he was from the Ministry of Justice. He spoke with a strong Indian accent and told me I was owed a refund for some overpaid money to my bank. He asked for my date of birth, bank details, and home address. He assured me the money had already been sent and that I'd see it in my account by tomorrow. But, so far, no sign of any payment. It’s mad how they keep bothering folks like this. They sound so convincing, acting all official, but in the end it’s all just a scam. Honestly, I’m not sure what to do now, feeling a bit stuck.Ministry of JusticeSteven Anderson9 yearsMy mate just got a call from this number, they claimed she had some money waiting from an old bank account because of extra charges. They never asked for any personal or bank info, but told her she’d need to buy an iTunes card worth 175 quid. They said a solicitor would come round with a cheque to sort it all by putting both the cheque and the iTunes card into her account. It all sounds a bit fishy to me, anyone else come across this? The old bank was Abbey National.Abbey National9 yearsGot a call from this number claiming to be the banking ombudsman, but I smelled a scam. They kept pushing me to say "ITUNES CARD" or something like that, so I just ended the call straight away.Submit Your Own Report (020 8133 4214)
