Phone number ☎️ 0808 👆 is reported as a hub of scams involving impersonation of reputable organisations like Microsoft, Santander, Amazon and PayPal, often linked to fake security alerts or account issues. Callers employ tactics such as planting error messages on computers, automated recorded messages, and pressing for personal, banking or payment details. Common schemes include overcharging or unauthorised payments, fake refunds, council tax banding adjustments, and fraudulent tech support demands. Many of these calls display UK premium-rate or toll-free numbers, frequently using foreign accents and persistent redialling. Users are strongly advised not to engage, avoid sharing sensitive data, verify with the actual organisation via official contacts, block suspicious numbers and report to authorities. Exercising caution with unexpected calls, texts, or emails offers vital protection against these ongoing phone scams.
Reports on phone number 0808
2 yearsI got a message that looked like it was from Santander but it was a scam. Definitely avoid it!Santander2 yearsThat number, 0808 167 6609, was definitely someone trying to con me. Total scammer.2 yearsReceived a text from "London Mint" saying they tried calling about my account. They asked me to get in touch on 08081097852.London Mint3 years08081965550 - I always avoid answering calls from numbers I don’t recognise. If it really matters, they’ll leave a voicemail or reach me through a text or email. There’s been a rise in fake ‘Messenger’ messages from so-called friends asking for help or a favour, which usually means they want money. To be sure it’s genuine, ask something only your true mate would know.3 years0808 280 3007 rang my landline with an automated message saying there was a security warning from Santander. The voice said to call back or they’d ring again later. It even used my full name in the message. sounded like a proper automated female voice, so it felt legit. I checked my account just to be sure and everything seemed fine.Santander3 years0808 280 0401 First they send a message pretending to be from Santander warning you that another number will text you soon. Then this new text says there’s a suspicious transaction trying to go through on your credit card and asks you to reply y or n. They also give that number to ring instead. Don’t respond at all, as replying could prove your phone belongs to you and might be used fraudulently.Santander3 yearsTotal bank scam! Got a text with a one-time code and told to ring a number quick if I hadn’t authorised a £1000 payment. Didn’t call the number and went straight to Santander to check instead.Santander3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Santander Fraud, total spam.Santander3 yearsGot a voicemail claiming to be Santander with some urgent info. Yeah right, as if! I've gone ahead and blocked the number already.Santander4 yearsI thought it was Paypal at first. They said there’s a delay on a pricey phone order (£840) that we never made. They asked to get in touch within 24 hours to get a refund. Claimed the item would show up on our account in a couple of days. Weirdly, they had our actual landline number in there. How did they even get hold of our info? The number at the bottom of the email was 08082711014.PayPal4 yearsGot a call from 08081892881 today at about 12:45, no message left so I didn’t bother picking up. Definitely a scam, just a pain. They really should be shut down.4 yearsGot a call from 08081960468, someone said they were from the bank warning about unauthorised use on a debit card. Sadly, my wife ended up giving them some info. Seems like no money's gone missing so far, but we've blocked the card and are changing loads of passwords just to be safe.4 yearsI dealt with a firm named Hulubre. I ordered a shed and paid online. They emailed me saying I would get a refund but I’ve had nothing and no one picks up the phone or replies to emails. Feels like a con to me, so watch out. 0808 196 7806Hulubre4 yearsI got a call from this number today 080815090024 years08081509002 says they’re from Eon Next but somethin’ seems off.E. ON4 yearsNo one picked up when I rang back.4 yearsThat pre recorded message saying Santander and my full name really made me wonder if it’s legit or a scam. Bit worried now how else they might have got my info, ringing my bank like that.Santander4 yearsVigen4 yearsJust got a call from 0808 280 3007, it was a recorded message claiming to be Santander. Since its a robo call, im pretty sure its a scam.Santander4 years08082801101 kept sending me loads of texts and even rang me a few times with a recorded message, claiming to be from Santander’s fraud team. They said there was an urgent message and told me to ring them back on some 0800 number. I smelled a rat straight away and just hung up. No proper bank would send urgent alerts through recorded calls, or ask you to press any button to call them back. Definitely a dodgy scam, I’m staying well clear of it.Santander4 yearsGot a call from 08082801101 claiming to be Santander.Santander4 yearsWon’t stop ringing me.4 yearsGot two calls and a couple of texts from 08082800212 claiming to be Santander.Santander5 yearsI found this number on some shipping info claiming to be from Keto Pro Ex’s customer support. I got some pills sent to me that I never asked for, and they already charged my card. Now I'm out of money and had to alert my bank about an unknown charge. It’s such a hassle having to cancel my cards and all. Be really careful with those random ads that pop up when you’re browsing online. Looks like I’ve been scammed.Keto Pro Ex5 yearsGot a text from 08081964436 saying Amazon charged me £2169.99 for an Apple MacBook Pro 13-inch M1 8-Core order ID 03134521DRT dated 13-03-2021.
