4 yearsWas just rang by someone pretending to be the NHS, totally a scam!4 yearsMy wife got a text with a link to some NHS site asking for card details to cover 99p postage for a PCR test kit. Definitely a scam, so don’t fall for it!NHS4 yearsGot a dodgy text claiming I'd been near someone with Omicron. The link pointed to a .com site. Didn't click on it myself, just thought I'd give a heads-up so no one else falls for it.Omicron4 yearsBeware, this number is part of a scam pretending to be from the NHS about Covid. They say they're offering a free Omicron PCR test but then try to get you to give your bank info to cover delivery costs. Don’t fall for it!4 yearsBeware of this number, it’s a scam pretending to be from the NHS about Covid. They send you a message saying you were near someone with Covid and offer a free Omicron PCR test. But then they want your personal info and even bank details to cover postage costs. Seriously, don’t give out any info on their form - it’s a total scam!NHSCovid4 yearsGot a message about Covid like many others, total scam. Don’t click on any links they send you. Just block the number straight away.Covid4 yearsGot a text claiming to be from the NHS saying I’d been near someone with Omicron and needed to book a PCR test. Then it asked for bank info and my card’s security code - definitely a scam!NHSOmicron4 yearsThis was obviously a scam, they just wanted to take me for a ride.4 yearsGot a text on my phone that seemed like it might be one of those PCR test scams. The message didn’t look like the typical format the NHS uses. It came from the number +44 7851493642. Felt a bit dodgy to me.NHS4 yearsJust got a text saying it was from the NHS about Omicron and that I needed to book a PCR test. The website they gave was national-health-uk.com, which felt a bit dodgy. Be careful, it’s definitely a scam - don’t click on any links like that!NHSOmicronBest4 yearsSounds like one of those dodgy schemes where they say the PCR test is free but you end up having to cover the postage costs. Definitely feels like a rip-off to me.4 yearsThis call wasn’t from the GP, the NHS, or the COVID app at all. It came from some random mobile number with a link that had nothing to do with the NHS. I’m pretty sure it’s just a scam. Definitely don’t follow the link!NHS4 yearsGot a call from +447851 493642 saying I’d been near someone with Omicron and needed to book a PCR test. I hardly leave the house and don’t feel sick in any way. Plus, the NHS doesn’t have my phone number at all. Seems like a total scam to me. They didn’t ask for any money, just told me to get in touch with the NHS.OmicronNHS4 yearsIf you scroll down a couple of entries, you’ll find info on how you can help put an end to these scams, plus why just blocking the number isn’t effective. It’s honestly no hassle, just a quick post on this site. When reporting fraud to the police, you don’t even need to give your personal details. The police can’t act straight away, largely because they don’t yet grasp how widespread this problem is, so resources aren’t being properly assigned. My MP’s reply was quite revealing, but without more people reporting these annoying calls and texts, nothing will change.4 yearsGot a text saying I’d been near someone with Omicron and had to click a link to set up a PCR test. It said the test was free but you had to pay 99p for postage. Looks like a classic scam to me!4 yearsGot a text saying I’d been near someone with Omicron and needed to get a PCR test booked. The link looked suspicious, so I didn’t click it. Looks like a scam to me, so watch out!4 yearsGot a text saying I've been near someone with Omicron and that I should book a PCR test.

Felt a bit iffy about it.4 yearsI got a message saying I was a close contact and needed to book a PCR test. The link they sent looked dodgy, so I didn't dare click it. Feels like a total scam to me.4 yearsI got a message saying I'd been exposed to Omicron, claiming to be from the NHS. Since I don’t use the Track & Trace app, it immediately seemed fishy to me. Instead of clicking on the link, I thought I’d better look up the number first - glad I did, as it definitely looks like a scam. No way I’m clicking that link now!OmicronNHS4 yearsGot a text saying I’d been near someone with Omicron and to get a PCR test, but I didn’t click on the link at all.4 yearsI got a text from this number saying I’d been in close contact with someone who had Omicron and asked me to book a PCR test. The fact they specifically mentioned Omicron and not just Covid made me really suspicious right away!Covid4 yearsGot a call saying I should book a PCR test because I was near someone who tested positive for Omicron. They even sent a link to set up the appointment.4 yearsI've come into contact with someone who has omicron, so I got a call to set up a PCR test.4 yearsBeware of this number, it's a dodgy scam pretending to be from the NHS about Covid. They send you a text saying you might have met someone with Covid and want you to enter your personal info to get a supposed free Omicron PCR test. Then, they try to get your bank info to charge you for postage. Really dodgy stuff - don’t put any of your details in, it’s not safe!NHSCovid4 yearsI sent my name, date of birth, and address by text to the mobile number 07851493642, but I didn’t share any bank info.4 yearsAnother bloody annoying call from those boiler sales people! Don’t they get that no one is interested? It's so irritating how persistent they are. Hopefully one day they’ll face some real consequences and stop wasting everyone’s time. Proper nuisances, they are.4 yearsGot a call about being an Omicron close contact, they wanted my address for a free PCR test. It sounded pretty legit. Since I haven’t caught covid yet, I almost believed them but thankfully, being broke meant I couldn’t pay the postage. Strange how being skint has its upsides during this cost of living mess!OmicronCovidP4 yearsGot a text saying I’d been near someone who caught omicron.
