02081442956 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 02081442956 👆 is reported as a persistent scam involving callers impersonating Royal Mail staff, claiming recipients have parcels with insufficient postage requiring immediate small payments, typically around £1.50. Callers often use personal names to appear credible but cannot provide verifiable parcel details or legitimate addresses. They pressure for payment over the phone or request email addresses to send fraudulent links. Many recipients note rude or abrupt behaviour, including hanging up when questioned. Genuine Royal Mail parcels always come with a formal card or email notification, never unsolicited calls demanding payments. Users are strongly advised not to provide personal or payment information, to block this number, and to report suspicious calls. Vigilance is crucial to avoid falling victim to this well-documented scam.

Some bloke rang me, said he was from a phone shop. I asked him how on earth he got my number since it’s supposed to be private, and he just said that doesn’t matter, madam. I told him to take my number off their list and never call again, and then he just told me to be quiet before hanging up on me. Honestly, that was so cheeky and rude!

Got a call about a parcel they supposedly had, saying I needed to pay £1.50 for delivery and give them my bank info. They also asked for my address.

Got a call from a lady with an Indian accent, claiming she was ringing from Royal Mail about an Amazon package. She said it was a bit light and didn’t have enough postage, so I needed to pay some fees to get it through. I found it odd and asked why Amazon would send things through Royal Mail like that. She then said it was because Royal Mail was overloaded or something. I kept asking her more questions until she finally gave up and ended the call. For sure sounds like a scam to me!

Got a call from someone saying they were Royal Mail, demanding money for a parcel they said didn’t have a stamp. I told them Royal Mail always leaves a card if they try to deliver something. As soon as I started doubting her, she just cut me off and hung up! Bit of a dodgy scam if you ask me.

I got a call from someone saying I owed £1.50 for some kind of postage on a parcel. They wouldn’t tell me what the parcel was or where it was from. When I asked for an email, the woman said she’d already sent it and told me to check my inbox while she stayed on the line. Nothing showed up. Then she offered to text me, but I asked her to just post a proper bill like Royal Mail usually does, then she just ended the call. Definitely feels like a scam, so watch out for this one.

Got a call from a woman with an Indian accent, claiming to be from Royal Mail about a parcel from Amazon. She said it was a small package but needed extra postage before they’d deliver it. I asked her why Amazon would be sending parcels via Royal Mail like this, and she said it was due to them being overwhelmed or busy. I kept pressing her for details till she just ended the call. No doubt at all, this was a scam!

Got a call from a woman claiming her name was Melissa, saying she was ringing on behalf of Royal Mail. She told me there was a package stuck at a depot in North London, postcode N7 9HH. Apparently, the seller hadn’t paid the proper postage, so I needed to cough up £1.50 to get it released. When she asked if I’d pay, I told her I didn’t think it was really Royal Mail calling and then she just hung up. Tried ringing the number back but, of course, it was dead. I haven’t bought anything from Amazon recently, so this was definitely dodgy! Total scam, watch out!

She told me there was a package addressed to me but it didn’t have the right postage on it. I found it odd since I don’t even live anywhere near that area.

I got a ring from this number from some lady with a Russian sounding accent. She said a parcel of mine was stuck at a Royal Mail depot in North London and asked me to pay up. When I asked what the parcel was, she said she had no idea who it was from but claimed it weighed about 0.75 kg. She offered to send an email explaining how to pay. Everything seemed legit until I told her I thought it might be a scam - then the call just cut off straight away. That was enough for me to know what was what.

Got a call from someone pretending to be Royal Mail, and honestly, the woman was quite aggressive and not polite at all. She insisted that I pay for a stamp right then and there. I tried telling her to just send the parcel to my nearest depot so I could pay in person, but she kept saying I had to sort it out either over the phone or online. When I asked if they could just return the parcel instead, she warned me that I’d be held responsible and that sending it back wasn’t an option. Really frustrating situation.

Got a call earlier from a lady speaking with an Indian accent saying she was from Royal Mail. She mentioned a parcel that was supposed to be sent but apparently had no postcode on it! It sounded off to me, but she still asked for my email, which I gave. Lucky I didn’t click any links she sent afterwards - I looked up the Royal Mail site and saw it was a total scam. Just a heads up to be careful with these dodgy calls, folks. Stay safe out there!

They mentioned the parcel was from someone with initials A.D. I reckon they’d send a follow-up email trying to fake Royal Mail and scam me. Better to be careful with these sorts of calls!

Just like others mentioned here, I got a call about some mail I hadn’t received and was told I needed to pay a fee. When I asked who it was from, the woman said it was a shop that’d already paid but apparently a postage stamp was missing. She wanted around a quid. I then asked how she even had my phone number since mail doesn’t usually show that unless opened. She insisted I was in her system. I told her that the post office normally leaves a card and that I wasn’t buying it, then she just hung up. It’s a shame, really, but unfortunately enough people fall for this kinda thing for the scammers to keep doing it.

Just like the person mentioned before me, this woman had my full name spot on and said she was calling from Royal Mail. She told me I had a parcel waiting that needed an expensive special stamp, something like over £1000, before they’d deliver it. I ended the call right away after she said that. Don’t get tricked by these cons, seriously. Royal Mail would never ring you up asking for such a ridiculous amount to be paid by phone. Stay sharp!

Some woman with an Indian accent rang me up, using a completely made-up name, saying she was from Royal Mail about a parcel that supposedly hadn't been posted properly because it missed a stamp. I calmly told her how it really works - the Post Office always leaves a notice if something can’t be delivered. Then I let her have it, swearing as much as I could at the awful scammer before slamming the phone down.
