02843780078 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 02843780078 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance number linked to various scams, predominantly targeting older adults with claims of health issues requiring emergency alert pendants or solar panel offers. Callers often use a slow, hesitant male voice, sometimes named "Sam," to impersonate healthcare workers or local officials. Many calls begin with "Can you hear me?" prompting victims to respond and potentially enabling voice identification fraud. The calls frequently involve long pauses, silence, or automated messages, and rarely leave voicemail. Despite registrations with the Telephone Preference Service, users find these calls continue unabated. It is strongly advised not to engage, verbally respond, or provide any personal information. Blocking the number and reporting to authorities is recommended to protect against these deceptive and intrusive calls.
Reports on phone number 02843780078
4 monthsSo they say it’s some kind of national claims thing 😂, but it’s clearly a scam. When I called back, it was obvious it was an automated system the scammers set up. I called at 9pm too - seriously, which claims company has operators working that late? Honestly, these scammers are so clueless. Anyway, I’ve reported the number to the police and they’re looking into it.1 yearI got a call but couldn't make out what they were saying, so I ended it. Feels like it was one of those scam calls.2 yearsThis bloke called me, said he had a list of sick people over 70. I just put the phone down right away.2 yearsMy mum just got a call from these lot and when she picked up, they asked if she could hear them alright. She said yes, and now she’s really stressing, thinking she might’ve been conned by those ####!2 yearsThe number popped up and I just let it go to voicemail. Didn’t get any message but later realised it was one of those cold calls. Absolutely no interest in cold storage stuff.2 yearsThe moment I picked up, they just ended the call right away.2 yearsEvery time I pick up the phone, I just end the call straight away. Over the past year, I've gotten over 30 calls like this. I've started to suspect that my landline number might be at risk because of it - feels like they might be able to eavesdrop on our conversations. I've reported it to my phone provider too, and they've picked up on some kind of issue happening as well.2 yearsGot a call from a bloke saying he was a health worker from around here. The number didn’t look familiar or local, so I just ended the call.2 yearsGot a call from some bloke asking if I owned the house, then went on about some new rules for homeowners. I tried to cut him off and told him not to ring me again, but he just kept talking over me. I wasn’t having it - told him he was a scammer and to shove off. Blocked the number straight away.2 yearsThis was definitely a scam, best to just hang up or block the number straight away.2 yearsThey called but never bothered to leave a message.2 yearsGot a call from a bloke saying something about estate planning and asked if I owned the place. I just hung up straight away. After reading the comments, seems like this number's been used for all sorts of dodgy scams. Hopefully, sharing this helps others avoid it. I'm signed up with TPS too, but it never really stops these cold calls. Honestly, it takes a real lowlife to try and scam folks like this. Sometimes I wish I could zap these calls with a massive electric shock.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an English accent saying something about new rules for homeowners. He asked if I owned my home, I told him I’m renting and then just ended the call.2 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be from the energy company, total scam!2 yearsI received a call from a machine, yet it pauses in a peculiar manner as if it’s expecting me to chime in.2 yearsThis number keeps ringing me non stop but since they never leave a voicemail I just don’t bother answering or calling back.2 yearsSome dodgy call just came through claiming to be from health services, ringing up my mum about preventing falls - she’s 90 by the way. Thankfully, she wasn’t fooled and told them where to go straight away. Classic scam trying to prey on elderly folks.2 yearsI picked up the phone thinking it might be from the hospital, but there was silence on the other end. When I called back, I got a recorded message about some medical alert thing… didn’t even bother to listen properly. Looks like another scam to me.2 yearsGot a call with no sound, they said they’re registered with TPS. Quite odd really.2 yearsMissed the call; it went unanswered.2 yearsGot a prerecorded message on my phone, seemed like one of those health gadget scams for some pendant. Definitely a scam, don't fall for it!2 yearsGot a call on our work phone with a recorded message warning about some health alerts. Pretty annoying.2 yearsI got a call from someone asking if I could hear them. I'd read about that trick where they want you to say yes, so instead I asked who was calling. Then, they just ended the call.2 yearsHe kept saying “hello, can you hear me?” over and over then just hung up. Pretty sure it was some kind of spam call.2 yearsA bloke called Sam rang me, said he was in healthcare. At first, there was nothing but silence, then he asked if I could hear him. I replied yes, but then he went quiet again before finally introducing himself as Sam. He mentioned something about eight people being flagged with health problems and maybe being eligible for an alarm service. I told him I’m fit as a fiddle with no health concerns but he kept going on, so I ended the call. A week later, he phoned again, and I just hung up straight away again.Sam2 yearsHonestly, people need to be more careful. Never just say yes or no on the phone if you don’t actually know the person calling. They try to trick you with those voice ID things to get into your bank info. My advice? If you don’t recognise the number, don’t bother answering at all. It’s just not worth the risk.2 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be a healthcare support worker telling me I’d been diagnosed with some condition and that I needed an alarm system. When I asked which organisation he was with, he said Dorset Health Group. I then asked if this was a registered company or what kind of setup they had, but before he could answer the line just cut off. So I just hung up.Dorset Health Group2 yearsWhen I called, nobody bothered to greet me.2 yearsGot a call from a woman’s voice asking if I could hear her. When I said no, she just dropped the call. A few hours later, the same number called me again with the same question, “Can you hear me?” I told her to quit calling because I recognised it was a scam. She immediately hung up. I’m on the TPS list, but it doesn’t seem to help much with these irritating calls. Any idea how to stop them for good?2 yearsGot a call from a Newry number again, total silence when I picked up. Pretty sure it’s one of those spoofed calls.Newry2 yearsGot calls both this morning and last night. Didn’t pick up and just blocked the number.2 yearsAnswered but no one spoke or left a message. Just blocked the number now.2 yearsI called amsaphone but they just cut me off straight away.AmSaphone2 yearsI got a dodgy call that seems to be coming from 02843780050 and 02843780098 - looks like a scam to me.2 yearsThey tried talking to me about solar panels, so I just ended the call straight away.2 yearsI didn’t pick up since the number was unknown, and they didn’t bother leaving a message either.2 yearsI'm pretty sure it's a scam. The moment you pick up, they ask, "Can you hear me?" and if you say no, they just hang up straight away. I was about to say yes but then it clicked that you’re not supposed to say yes. They asked me that question two times, and when I said no both times, they gave up. Watch out for this one!2 yearsToday I got a ring from this number, but I usually dont pick up calls from unknown numbers. Better safe than sorry!2 yearsGot a call from someone about solar panels, said they’d give me a free quote and promised to call back. Honestly, I really hope they don’t bother! Total waste of my time.2 yearsRight after a call about solar panels, this number popped up too - definitely another dodgy scammer ringin me.2 yearsI usually don't pick up unless the number's familiar, so I just let it ring.2 yearsHad a bunch of scam calls last week, you’d think they’d get the hint by now. It feels like some overseas scammer using AI to mimic voices or something. Honestly, what’s the use of things like TPS or BT Call Protect when these idiots can still ring through despite all the complaints? Proper annoying.BT2 yearsHeads up, these lot keep ringing if you don’t answer - mostly from 02843 area codes. Proper scam calls, annoying as heck!2 yearsBefore I even pick up calls from strange numbers, I always look them up on this site now. Honestly, the TPS doesn’t seem to do a thing! It’s so frustrating - is there any way to actually put an end to these annoying calls?2 yearsOn 11/4/2024 at about 4:45pm I got a call from 02843780078 but as I didn’t know the number, I ignored it. They didn’t bother leaving a voicemail either. I checked online and it looks like it might be a scam. I’m registered with the TPS, so shouldn’t be getting calls like this at all.Telephone Preference ServiceTPS2 yearsThere was the typical lag before the call linked up, which set my alarm bells off right away. A woman answered and asked, "are you there?" then started on something about solar panels. I reckon it was someone called Jane. I’ve dealt with this before; they wanted me to get a quote. I kept saying no, over and over, but she just kept cutting me off like she wasn’t listenin’.Jane2 yearsThey keep ringing me up but never say anything on the answerphone.2 yearsI received a call from this number earlier today, but there was nobody on the other end of the line. Quite peculiar, really!2 yearsThey kept telling me I absolutely had to get one of those life line pendants, saying it was free because of my health issues!2 yearsSome bloke called Sam rang me, sounded pretty posh but seemed dodgy. He claimed to be a healthcare worker, though never said exactly which area, just that it was local. His pauses were weirdly long, like someone was playing a recording rather than speaking live. When I asked how he got my phone number and any of my medical info, he just didn’t reply. Smelled like a scam to me.Sam2 yearsI've already had three calls from this number today. I didn’t answer any of them and there’s no voicemail left either.2 yearsWhen I picked up the call, there was no one on the line.2 yearsAs soon as the answering machine sprang to life, the caller promptly hung up.2 yearsThey keep calling but never bother leaving a message. Even after blocking the number, they somehow manage to get through. Definitely looks like a scam to me.2 yearsAnother bunch of scammers calling about health pendants! They kept saying they knew all about my health problems, which is ridiculous. When I asked where they got that info, they just wouldn’t say. Seriously, steer clear of these fraudsters, they’re as dodgy as they come.2 yearsGot a call from someone who made it sound like they were from a NHS or healthcare service, but actually, they were just trying to sell these alarm pendants for older people. So, really, it was just one of those sales cold calls.NHS2 yearsI phoned back and got a robotic lady saying it was "Lifetime Alarms?" bit odd if you ask me.2 yearsGot a call from a polite lady who first checked if I could hear her. When I asked who it was, there was a weird silence, though I could still hear loads of phones ringing like it was some call centre. I just hung up and didn’t get another ring. Best just to block that number.2 yearsPretty much the same story as everyone else. I got a call yesterday morning, with the caller saying something about knowing my health problems, which makes you believe it has something to do with the NHS rather than being a scam. The stuff he said and the long silences felt very scripted, like a recording. I ended up just hanging up before the call finished.NHS2 yearsSo this guy with a really clear voice said, "Hello, can you hear me?" I stayed on the line but didn't reply right away. Then after a moment, he introduced himself as Sam and said he was some kind of health worker from my area. He kept going on about some urgent medical problem I supposedly have and insisted I needed to get a pendant. I had to keep telling him I didn’t want or need one before I finally ended the call. Apparently, other people got the same sort of annoying calls. Proper harassment, really.Sam2 yearsThey rang me up, quickly checked if I was there, and just ended the call straight away.2 yearsGot called but no one left a message, just another annoying cold call!2 yearsAnswered the call but kept quiet, then suddenly the line just cut off. Checked this site afterwards and thought, yeah, figured it was something like that.2 yearsReceived a call from a number I didn't recognise, but they didn't leave any voicemail. Quite mysterious!2 yearsI rang but they didn’t drop a voicemail.2 yearsGot a bunch of calls from scammers ringing my phone over and over. Just blocked the number straight away.2 yearsPicked up the phone and there was nothing there, just silence. As I was putting it down, I heard someone say “can” but I’d already ended the call by then. No missed calls or messages after that. So I checked this brilliant site I regularly use and sure enough, it was a scammer. Big thanks to all the folks who leave their experiences here!2 yearsSome person rang me, said they were from a local health service selling emergency neck alarms. I wasn’t buying it at all.2 yearsJust like what others have said, a man with a clear voice claimed to be Sam, some health worker from around here... bla bla bla. I gave him a piece of my mind. Honestly, this is really troubling if they’re targeting older or vulnerable folks.Sam2 yearsI picked up the phone and there was complete silence to start with, then a well-spoken gentleman asked, "Can you hear me?" He sounded a bit unsure, like someone was coaching him. After that, he launched into a spiel claiming to be a local health official, telling me they had records showing I had major health problems without any assistance, and that I needed an emergency medical alert pendant. What an awful scam this is. It really makes me sick thinking about how easily a vulnerable person could fall for this. Honestly, I can’t imagine his family being proud of him.SOS2 yearsSo, this bloke who called himself Sam started the chat with a massive pause, then claimed he worked in healthcare. There was another awkward silence before I asked what exactly he wanted. Eventually, he said he was offering a medical alert pendant, saying it'd be useful if I took a tumble and needed help. I told him I was fine without one and ended the call. Definitely a SCAM CALL.Sam2 yearsGot a call from this number and the person just kept asking if I could hear them. It was weird. Then they mentioned something about being from an SOS button firm, but after that, they went silent. Ended up hanging up on them.2 yearsGot a call from a bloke asking if I could hear him - definitely a scam, watch out!2 yearsI missed the call and they didn’t bother to leave a message.2 yearsI saw the number but didn’t pick up because it looked dodgy and I had a feeling it was just some sort of scam.2 yearsPretty much all calls to my landline turn out to be scams. I picked up, said "Hello," then this guy asked, "Can you hear me?" I stayed quiet and after a moment he just ended the call.2 yearsGot a call where no one said a word, just pure silence. Bit strange and quite annoying really.Submit Your Own Report (028 4378 0078)
