Phone number ☎️ 08000988549 👆 is reported as associated with aggressive and persistent scam calls, often posing as technical support or official services like the Telephone Preference Service or Windows support. Callers use high-pressure tactics to extract personal or bank details, frequently threatening to disconnect services. They exhibit knowledge of personal information to appear credible but aim to defraud recipients by selling fake protection plans or unnecessary equipment. Recipients are advised not to engage, avoid providing any financial information, and to terminate calls immediately to prevent distress, especially among vulnerable individuals. There is no evidence this number is linked to legitimate organisations, so caution is strongly recommended.

7 yearsJust had a call from someone claiming to be Daniel David at B.T. Technical department. Said my internet was about to get cut off. I told him to get lost, total scam!B. T. Technical TeamDaniel David8 yearsSomeone just tried to get my mum's bank card details from her. Definitely steer clear of this number!9 yearsThey called me claiming to be from the Telephone Preference Service. I told them I'd ring back and asked for their contact number, which they then provided.Telephone Preference Service10 yearsGot a call from a withheld number earlier, with a guy speaking in an Asian accent who said his name was 'Peter'. Claimed he was from some company called PC6 AJ soft & apps IT team and gave me the number 08000988549. Same tired spiel about problems with my Windows system, asking if I was on my computer, all that. After around ten minutes I got fed up and told him I’d verify his info and call back. Yeah, no chance I’m doing that.PeterPC6 AJ Soft & Apps IT11 yearsI got a call from this number, but it showed up as unavailable on my phone. After a good 20 minutes of chat, I finally managed to get them to tell me their number. When I called back, I asked for John Bull - NOT Alex Roberts, as the caller had said earlier when I said I'd ring back. They seemed a bit puzzled when I mentioned John Bull, paused for a moment and then said he’d already left for the day. Felt like total nonsense to me! If this isn’t some kind of scam, I don’t know what is. The guy was really pushing me to pay £85 for a year’s cover or £135 for two years, supposedly for some extra protection from the Windows service centre. Too dodgy for my liking.John BullAlex Roberts12 yearsGot a call earlier where the person claimed to be from Windows support. They wanted me to turn on my computer because apparently, it was infected with viruses! I wasn’t falling for it and told them straight up they were trying to scam me.12 yearsHas anyone else got a call from this number? Someone rang me saying my "windows" was going to crash and that I needed to set up my computer properly. Not sure if it’s for real or just some scam.13 yearsReceived a call from this number, but the caller didn’t bother to leave a voice message. Quite curious, really.Submit Your Own Report (0800 098 8549)
