07985152719 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 07985152719 👆 is reported as a persistent and well-known "Hi Mum" scam where fraudsters impersonate a relative claiming their phone is broken and urgently request money via WhatsApp. Victims often find the language suspicious and the messages repeatedly come from varying numbers, making blocking ineffective due to spoofing by overseas criminal gangs. The scam attempts cause distress and attempt to exploit trust, sometimes involving requests for large sums. Users strongly advise not to respond or call back but instead report these incidents directly to the UK’s cyber crime police via official channels like Action Fraud. Collective reporting is emphasised as crucial to enabling law enforcement to take meaningful action against these fraudulent activities and protect the public.

3 yearsCalled from this number trying to trick folks out of their cash, typical! I just shot back with “buzz off and quit scamming people,” and of course, no reply. Classic stuff!3 yearsHello mum, I just need £900, please.4 yearsHey mum, it's me!4 yearsIf you scroll down a bit from here, there’s a post (number 8) that explains how to report this kind of theft attempt straight to the cyber crime police. It’s worth having a look at that as well as some of the posts that come after it.4 yearsGot this weird text saying “Hi Mum” claiming to be from a kid whose phone was broken and using another phone. Bit odd cause I’m not even a mum, I’m a dad! Strange prank or mistake I guess.4 yearsHey, first I figured it was a message from the parents’ WhatsApp group. Then I thought, who’s this rude person with no name or anything? Got the same messages from two different numbers and wondered if my English was slipping. Who even sends texts like that now? If it’s so important, just ring me! I replied with a bit of a rude word and told them to get back to work.WhatsApp4 yearsGot two texts just a few minutes apart, and it was at 3:28am! Who even sends messages that early?4 yearsSomeone told me to call this number, saying it was my grown-up kid. I'm pretty sure it's just a scam.4 yearsGot a few messages pretending to be from someone saying 'Hey Mum', telling me to ring these numbers. I've had texts from 07597213488 and also 07547889964 so far. Seems a bit dodgy to me.4 yearsMy mum got a call from this number, and the person was acting like it was me on the other end. Thankfully, mum rang me straight away and I was around to pick up. Some folks really haven’t got any shame.4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be my daughter, but it was just a scammer pretending. Made me worry for a bit until I realised it wasn’t really her. Such a sneaky trick!4 yearsGot a text just now saying "Hi Mum" from a number I didn't recognise. Sounded dodgy to me, like one of those scams trying to get you to respond. Classic trick to make you think it's family, but I’m not falling for it! Stay sharp, folks.4 yearsJust like the other messages saying "hey mum..." - total scam, watch out!4 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be my mum trying to scam me. Proper dodgy!4 yearsGot a message from 07704 933151 saying something like "Hi Mum, I’m texting you from a mate’s phone, I’ve broken mine and his battery’s nearly dead, text me on WhatsApp at 07985 152719 xx". At first, it threw me off a bit, but checking sites like this and reading reviews from others showed me it was a scam. I blocked that number straight away and now I’m better prepared if I get the same type of message again.WhatsApp4 yearsGot a message from 07732079944 saying “hi mum, I’ve broken my phone. Can you text me on my new number 07985152719?” Afterwards, they started asking for £500. Total scam!4 yearsGot a text from 07732079944 saying "Hi mum, I've broken my phone, can you message me on my other number 07985152719?" After that, they started asking me for £500.4 yearsI got a text from this number saying “hi mum, my phone’s not working, can you WhatsApp me from my mate’s phone?” I assumed it was my 12 year old daughter, who was staying with her dad at the time. Then they asked me for £500 to cover some bills, which instantly made me suspicious. I didn’t believe it was her. Turns out, the original number belongs to a place called Pin Cushion Interiors in Woodhall Spa.Pin Cushion InteriorsWoodhall Spa4 yearsDefinitely a scammer, very dodgy and potentially harmful.4 yearsGot a call from this number, 07985 152719, sounded like someone saying “Hi mum.” Bit odd, don’t think it was for me.4 yearsReceived this dodgy message saying “Hi mum, texting from a mate’s phone cause I broke mine, theirs is nearly dead too, add me on WhatsApp with my new number 07985 152719 xx.” Definitely a scam, watch out!WhatsApp4 yearsGot a message from someone saying they were my kid (I haven't got any children) via WhatsApp, asked me to reach out on this number as their phone supposedly broke and this was their temporary one. They went on about having bills to sort but their bank was frozen. When I asked more, they claimed a mate lent them some cash which they promised to repay, then suddenly it turned into some crypto deal supposedly sorted by an online mate called Clinton. Honestly, this is a total con!WhatsAppClinton4 yearsHeads up everyone, this number is linked to the 'hi mum' scam going around. The scammers keep switching up numbers, trying to pose as your daughter or someone in your family. This particular one is used to make you believe it’s a friend of your family member or maybe their new contact. Don’t fall for it!4 yearsTrying to block scam calls is pointless. These fraudsters have access to countless computer-made numbers they use to ring or text us nonstop. If you check the comments dated 21/10 and 12/11 here, they explain how to deal with these scams and why it’s important. The main reason we’re constantly bombarded by these scammers is probably because nobody takes the time to report them to the police. Without reports, the criminals feel safe carrying on without any fear of being caught.4 yearsI received a text saying “hi mum” but didn’t respond. It’s pretty clear someone’s pretending to be family, which makes me think it’s a scam likely aimed at getting my money. I’d seriously recommend blocking that number.4 yearsGot a dodgy message about "Hi mum" - guess they lifted it from my Facebook where I mentioned having 3 kids! Funny thing is, those kids are grown ups now.

Thought it was my kid at first, but turned out to be some random person messing about. Bit confusing, really!4 yearsI got a text from 07985152719 saying "Hi Mum, I’ve smashed my phone, please WhatsApp me on this number." I was still half awake and replied before I thought about it. Then it hit me the message seemed off, so I ended up blocking the number.WhatsApp4 yearsHey mum, just wanted to drop you a quick message!4 yearsGot a text from 07521203101 saying, "Hi mum, my phone’s gone bust, using a mate’s instead. Can you WhatsApp me on 07985152719?" Sounded a bit dodgy to me.4 yearsMy mum fell for a scam from these lot, it’s really awful.4 yearsSomeone called me pretending to be one of my kids, talking all funny and saying their phone was smashed or something. Sounded really dodgy with the bad grammar and all that. Definitely didn't sound like my child!4 yearsSomeone called me claiming to be my kid, saying his phone isn’t working. Totally seemed dodgy to me.4 yearsWatch out, this number is definitely a scam. They try that old trick where they say "Hi mum, my phone's not working" - but don’t fall for it, it’s a clever con. They pretend to be relatives but trust me, they are not your family at all. Best thing to do is just block this number and stay safe!4 yearsGot a text off mum earlier, then she rang the number back herself.4 yearsThey claimed their phone was broken and that their mate’s phone was nearly dead as well, then asked me to switch to WhatsApp using this number.WhatsApp4 yearsHi mum, just wanted to let you know I'm using my mate's phone since I've gone and broken mine. His battery’s nearly dead too, so send me a message on WhatsApp at my new number, cheers xx 07985 152719WhatsApp4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming my kid’s phone was broken. Sounded dodgy, so I just blocked the number straight away.4 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be my daughter, saying their phone was busted so they were using a mate’s number to message me. Luckily, I know my kids well enough to spot this kind of thing, and the way they spoke was all wrong for her. Needless to say, I blocked the number straight away.4 yearsIt’s a real shame how far people have slipped when it comes to reading properly nowadays. Those scammers know exactly how to take advantage of it! That’s the reason they keep getting away with it. Have a look through this thread carefully - there’s a message in here that the scammers really don’t want you to catch on to or follow.4 yearsHey, looks like mum's getting scammed again, best not to pick up.4 yearsI got a call from 07521255545 where the person said "Hey mum" and wanted me to ring a different number on WhatsApp. Definitely a scam.WhatsApp4 yearsHe called saying he was my son and told me his phone broke.4 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be a mate, but it was a total scam.
