0808 Summary (Read all comments)

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.

08081965550 - 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.

0808 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.

0808 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.

Total 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.

I 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.

Got 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.

Got 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.

I 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 7806

08082801101 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.

I 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.

Got 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. If that's not you, they asked to get in touch with 08081964436. Seems fishy to me!

0808 506 4517 - Some scammer claiming to be from PayPal called me. When I asked about getting a refund, they just went ahead and changed my account password and charged my mate's card since I didn’t have my own. Lost £95 because of it.

Called my old dad saying his council tax band was way over what it should be. Claimed they were from Graystone recovery or some name like that. Asked for his card info to take a £180 payment for a reassessment. Thankfully he didn’t hand over any details.
