Reports on phone number 08000318127
6 yearsI received a call from a chap named Patrick, claiming to be with PayPal. He suggested that I might want to halt a payment of £204 destined for someone named Mark Williams, as it was purportedly linked to fraudulent activity! His number flashed up as 0808 1645334 on my handset. He pressed me for my email, postcode, and a whole host of other personal details. I told him I'd prefer to ring him back and asked for his contact number, which he provided as 0800 0318127. After doing a bit of digging online, I discovered that both of those numbers are actually scams - what a shocker!PatrickPayPalMark Williams6 yearsThey kept ringing up saying my PayPal was compromised. After I blocked the first number, they tried again from 08081645334. I wouldn't give them any info, told them I’d get in touch with PayPal myself. The bloke even said to ask for his name if I called back. I just hung up and blocked them straight away. Watch out, these lot are definitely scammers!PayPal6 yearsThese people keep ringin me and saying they are from PayPal, but its all a scam! So fed up with these fake calls on my phone!6 yearsThis number kept ringing me like the others did yesterday, but I ignored it. A while back, somebody pretending to be from PayPal called saying they had all my details. They asked for my card info, but I wouldn’t share anything. Despite that, they somehow managed to withdraw more than £600 from my bank and even tried to take out £6000. The police are involved now trying to sort it out. The money ended up with some clothing firm in India - no shock there. Phone scams like this are really becoming a huge problem, can’t trust anyone on the line these days.PayPalIndia6 yearsI've received multiple calls from this number, and it's nothing short of infuriating! There's always a cacophony of voices in the background, with people aggressively pressuring others for their personal details. It's utterly appalling! PayPal really ought to take action and put a stop to these sorts of numbers.6 yearsI received a call from this number, and it was rather alarming. They sent a verification code to me from a new number, which matched the format that PayPal often uses. The caller was quite convincing until he insisted that I provide my banking information due to a supposed hack on my IP address. I had the option to hang up but thankfully resisted the urge to share any details. I've since removed both of my bank cards from my PayPal account. Just a heads up to everyone, they seem to have access to a lot of information!6 yearsA scammer called pretending to be from PayPal, told me my password was changed so I couldn’t log in. They even knew my home address, email and the last four digits of my cards plus expiry dates. Then they asked for another bank account claiming my PayPal couldn’t refund my stolen funds because of a connection error. I ended the call, but they phoned me back about five times asking how much money was in my account for “security”. I’ve now reset my password and removed my card from PayPal, fingers crossed nothing nasty happens from this.PayPal6 yearsGot a call from 08000318127 earlier, was a bit worried so I went and changed my password straight away and asked for texts to be sent to a new number. Fingers crossed it was something to do with stopping any dodgy activity on my PayPal account. Bloody annoying if it’s fraudsters messing about!6 yearsReceived a call from someone feigning to be from PayPal, claiming it was regarding an issue from November 22nd related to a Chinese firm. Quite the cheeky attempt!PayPal6 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be PayPal, but it was definitely a scam.

What a joke!6 yearsWatch out, this is a scammer trying to fish for your PayPal email. Best just to steer clear.6 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were PayPal and wanted my email, but I told them no way. Then they said my bank’s been compromised. I asked them for my own name to check, but they just kept pressing for my email. I didn’t give any info and ended up hanging up. They tried calling back, saying they were just trying to assist, so I just put the phone down for good.PayPal6 yearsBeware of this company! They try to trick you by saying big payments were made on your PayPal account, but it’s all fake!PayPal6 yearsGreetings! I received a rather alarming call from the number 0800 031 8127, claiming to be about my PayPal account, which I haven't touched in a decade. They mentioned that funds were being withdrawn and that I needed to act fast to prevent potential money laundering. Honestly, I’m not gullible, but I worry there are individuals out there who might fall for this ruse. It's truly concerning how some people could get ensnared in such a scam!6 yearsPayPal? Seriously, just get a proper job already!6 yearsJust got a call saying there was some dodgy activity on my PayPal, but as soon as I asked what the fuss was about, they threw out some rubbish about an unauthorised payment.

They went totally quiet after that, as if they didn’t have a reply.PayPal6 yearsJust like loads of others, they said they were PayPal but couldn’t even say my name right, totally fake.PayPal6 yearsI received a phone call from this number claiming to be from PayPal, asserting that my credit card had been compromised with some dodgy transactions.

Total scam, watch out!PayPal6 yearsI got a call from some dodgy lot saying my PayPal had sent money to a Mark Williams. The bloke sounded like he was trying to be American but had a thick Indian accent. As soon as I told him I was recording and would report him to the cops, he just hung up on me.PayPalMark Williams6 yearsI got a call where the person was acting like they were from PayPal, but it was all a trick. These are total scammers out to steal your cash. Don’t fall for it - don’t give them any info, confirm nothing, and definitely don’t send money.

Let them know exactly what you think about their sneaky tactics.6 yearsHeads up, this number is totally a scam. I’d say don’t share your email with anyone, especially these phone scammers! Stay safe out there.6 yearsJust got a call from this number, some guy with an Indian accent saying I had to press a button to pay £53 to a Walter Smith, claiming he was from PayPal. I kept telling him he was talking rubbish and after a while I warned I’d report him to the fraud police, then he suddenly cut off. This bloke was really trying hard to make me believe he was PayPal but nah, no legit PayPal caller would not know your name or details. Proper scammers, watch out!Walter SmithPayPal6 yearsI'm curious to find out who this number belongs to. Any chance someone could shed some light on it?6 yearsI'm so annoyed with these scammers, they really should be sorted out.

I chose not to pick up but checked it out on this site afterwards. A few months back I fell victim to likely these exact scammers. They had set up a fake Paypal support line after my real Paypal was frozen because they'd managed to access my account without permission.
