Phone number ☎️ 08002796211 👆 is reported as a scam targeting iPhone and iPad users with fake error messages claiming device crashes or virus infections. Callers posing as official tech support request payment (typically around £30-£50) for unnecessary fixes and often ask for sensitive information like Apple ID details. Genuine Apple support never charges for such services and advises not to call these numbers. Many users have experienced freezing browsers and persistent pop-ups prompting contact, with some victims having shared email addresses and concerns over potential data risks. It is strongly advised to avoid engaging with these callers, not to provide personal information, and to contact official Apple or broadband providers directly for assistance.

5 yearsThey keep ringing non stop, saying some debt collection is after me or something like that. It’s really annoying and they just won’t give up.10 yearsCould this be one of those scams? Just wondering.11 yearsGot a message on my iPad from an iPhone number. I rang back since it was an 0800 number, but got a bit iffy when they said the repair would cost £50. I ended up giving them my email, though, so fingers crossed nothing dodgy happens.11 yearsI got a weird error pop up on my iPad telling me to ring this number for tech help to sort it out. Please, don’t call that number! It’s a scam to rip you off. Honestly, just get in touch with Apple’s proper technical support - they’re super nice, really helpful, and best of all, free!Apple11 yearsI got a call on my iPad, so I decided to check the number and realised straight away it was dodgy. Definitely a scam.11 yearsMy Safari browser just froze and kept showing this annoying pop-up. Thought I'd be clever and called the number they gave, but now I've ended up giving them my email too. They said I have to pay £50 to fix it or else my whole system will crash completely. I'm proper worried and have no clue what to do now...11 yearsI tried calling this number but it just won't go through, looks like they've blocked me.11 yearsDon’t fall for it - they’re pretending to be Apple support but it’s a scam. The real number is 0800 048 0408 and they offer free help, so never hand over any cash!Apple Support11 yearsI got a weird error message on my iPad and these people rang up saying they could sort it out but wanted me to pay. Total scam. I just called Apple support and they had it fixed for me in less than a minute and didn’t charge a penny. Don’t waste your money on these folks.Apple11 yearsThey asked for £40 to sort it out, so I asked how I could be sure they weren’t conning me. She got a bit annoyed and I just ended up hanging up.11 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be “Premier Tech” pretending to be Apple support. If you happen to visit a dodgy website on your iPhone or iPad, a message pops up saying your IOS has crashed and tells you to ring their number. (My Safari totally froze.) They then tried to get my Apple ID (never give it to them!) and asked for £30 to supposedly fix the IOS by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Total con artists, watch out!Premier TechAppleSafari11 yearsToday, I got a call on my old iPhone 5s from someone claiming to be iOS tech support. They wanted my Apple ID info, but I just ended the call straight away. Afterwards, I made sure to report the number to Apple’s website. Good to see more folks are catching on to these scams these days.AppleApple. com12 yearsGot a message saying my computer was infected with a virus that could mess with my bank info, and it told me to ring Chrome tech support straight away. So I phoned, and when I asked if they were really from Chrome, the woman told me to just stop questioning and listen. When I kept asking, she just hung up. I tried again, and this time a bloke answered, asking if I was the one paying for the internet. I said no, so he asked who did, but when I said I didn’t know, he cut me off too. Feels like some kind of scam pretending to be Google, if you ask me.ChromeGoogleSubmit Your Own Report (0800 279 6211)
