Phone number ☎️ 02081444469 👆 is reported as a scam originating from an Indian call centre falsely claiming affiliation with well-known tech firms like Yahoo, Apple, Bullguard, and Facebook. Callers often request remote access to victims' computers, claim infections or hacks, and then demand substantial payments - sometimes hundreds of pounds - via cheque to purported companies. Vulnerable individuals, including the elderly and those with disabilities, are frequent targets, with scammers employing sophisticated tactics such as impersonating voicemail messages. Users are strongly advised not to answer or return these calls, avoid granting any remote access, and verify support numbers independently through official sources. The organisation behind these calls uses various pretexts, including antivirus support and PPI claims, but their motive is fraudulent financial gain. Authorities and telecom providers are encouraged to take action to block these numbers.
Reports on phone number 02081444469
5 yearsLike some others mentioned, this number is a scam from an Indian firm pretending to be UK tech support. Better off not picking up or ringing back.6 yearsI rang 0800368067 thinking it was Yahoo help, but they told me to fix the issue, someone would need remote access to my Apple Mac and that two engineers would be involved. I agreed, and a man named Harvey, who spoke with an Indian accent, mentioned the cost would be £144. I went along with it. Afterwards, Harvey told me to post a cheque for £144 including VAT to All Teckmart Ltd, 9 Field Gate Mansions, Romford Street, E1. Just today, I got another call from 02081444469 claiming to be Yahoo support.YahooAppleHarvey ArcherHarveyAll Teckmart LtdField Gate MansionsRomford StreetE16 yearsOn 26th October, I came across this number claiming to be 'Bullguard Support' and left a message. Shortly after, I received a call from 020 144 4469 where the person insisted he was from Bullguard. I described the issue and let him remotely access my laptop. He told me that my network had been hacked and that they’d install Sonic Wall Spyware to sort it out. After about three hours, he rang back saying the problem was fixed and sent an invoice from ALL TECHMART UK LTD for £394.80, asking me to pay by cheque! The issue wasn’t solved at all. In fact, they’d only installed ‘ZOHO ASSIST’, which my local computer guy later removed.Bullguard SupportALL TECHMART UK LTDZOHO ASSIST6 yearsI recently had my Yahoo email account compromised. Thinking I was contacting Yahoo’s official support, I dialled 0800 3689067 and even left a voicemail (I’m quite elderly, disabled, and not very good with technology). Soon after, I received a call back from the same number. The man on the phone had an Indian accent and claimed to be from Yahoo tech support. He asked me to visit www.fastsupport, which I later found out, is often linked to scams despite being a real site. I wisely decided not to proceed. He kept insisting he was legit and said he could replay the voicemail I'd left at their “Yahoo” number. I’m so relieved I didn’t let him access my computer remotely!Yahoo7 yearsI got a call on my mobile from a number, no voicemail left on my home phone. They called, hung up, then rang me again but wouldn’t say who they were and just ended the call straight away.7 yearsGot a call from someone saying I’d left a voicemail, which was odd since my tablet got hit with a couple of nasty viruses from a pretty slick phishing scam just yesterday. They kept asking me who I was, so I turned it around and asked who *they* were. Then they asked what I wanted, speaking with an Indian accent. I said, ‘You called me, what do you want?’ and they just hung up. I’m blocking my number and ringing them until it goes to voicemail, then calling right back. I’ve done this 23 times already and plan to keep going until 100. Tomorrow I’ll try the same thing from a non-hidden burner phone to see if I can actually get through. I’m disabled, so it’s funny to me that at least he can’t scam anyone else while I’m figuring out my move and ready to put him in his place.7 yearsJust to add more about the review I left about being called back a hundred times. This is connected to a freephone number claiming to be from Facebook, but it’s a scam. You have to enter your details, but you can't proceed unless you sign up for something called Resolver. It’s quite tricky, so watch out. After about three hours in my case, I got a call back. How on earth did they know I’m disabled? I share info only with genuine orgs, but these crooks assumed I was vulnerable. They were so wrong. Please, if you’ve got the time, call them repeatedly to jam their lines. It’s important to protect elderly and vulnerable people - don't let scammers swipe your nan’s savings next.Facebook7 yearsI'm helping out a chap with a learning difficulty who keeps getting random calls from this number. The bloke on the line, calling himself Justin, somehow got into his laptop without the gentleman really understanding what was going on. Since then, we've noticed some weird problems with his email and social media, but we can't say for certain if it's linked to that remote access. They've been asking him to pay quite a bit - like £1500 and another £400 - claiming it’s for new equipment installation.Justin7 yearsThis number has been repeatedly calling one of our older clients, trying to scare her into paying £600 for some antivirus thing she never bought. BT really should step in and block these scammers quick before they bother more folks.BT7 yearsHad a run in with the same kind of scam as mentioned earlier - they ring up pretending to be from a big antivirus company, but obviously they don’t know what program you actually use! I’d advise against looking up phone numbers from random sites on the web unless it’s definitely the official antivirus site, like www.norton.com or bitdefender.com. Even then, it’s safer to just keep the number that came with your antivirus paperwork because fake numbers are everywhere. Over here in the UK, I used BT’s 1571 service to check a caller, and if it says “we do not have the caller number to call back”, you can still report the call using 1572 to catch these scammers. It’s a handy little trick to remember!UK7 yearsSomeone rang up asking for £700 to fix my computer but I reckon it’s just a scam.8 yearsJust wanted to share my experience with my new Apple laptop. Out of nowhere, this app called Advanced Mac Cleaner appeared and I couldn’t get rid of it. I decided to call the number linked to the ad, 0800-031-5342, to ask them to remove it. The woman on the line immediately demanded payment, so I hung up. Soon after, a so-called Apple technician rang me claiming my Mac, as well as all other devices in the house, had been hacked. He offered to fix it for around £200. Nope, he was barking up the wrong tree, so I ended the call quickly. When I checked the number he called from, it was obvious it wasn’t Apple at all. This dodgy ad is everywhere online and somehow sneaks onto your computer through the internet. These scammers deserve a proper jail sentence. Luckily, I found a YouTube tutorial and managed to delete the app myself.AppleYouTube8 yearsI came across this number advertised as a contact for Facebook, so I thought I’d give it a bell since I needed assistance. They mentioned a technician would be in touch with me tomorrow, but I can't shake off this uneasy feeling that it might be a scam.
