08445715178 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 08445715178 👆 is reported as a recurring scam involving text messages that urge recipients to call a premium-rate number quoting a reference code. The messages often claim urgent importance but provide no legitimate company details, and attempts to call back result in long hold times with expensive charges. Many users have identified the same reference number and phone numbers linked to the scam, warning that these texts appear unsolicited and exploitative, especially preying on vulnerable individuals. Recipients strongly advise ignoring or blocking such messages, as no genuine contact precedes these texts. Authorities and trading standards have limited intervention thus far. New visitors are urged to exercise caution, avoid responding, and report suspicious communications to help protect themselves and others from this fraudulent activity.

I’m in the same boat, curious about the potential cost of firing off a cheeky text to them. Would it break the bank, or is it just a small price to pay for a bit of fun?
10 years
We experienced precisely the same thing.
11 years
We've received the exact same text message from the same phone number and reference code. It's clear this is a scam that we can see coming from a distance.

I tried reaching out to you earlier as it’s rather important for us to have a chat today. Could you please give me a call at 08445715178 and mention the reference number 331877? Cheers! This message was sent at 09:41.

I've been receiving the same message and reference number repeatedly. The agents seem to be quite tied up most of the time!

Received the same message along with the reference number earlier this morning at 10:20. I really should have trusted my instincts-definitely feels like a scam! :0(

I’ve heard that ringing them back might set you back a fiver. Just a heads up!

Received the same message along with the reference number. Clearly, this is a scam.

That stunning lady surely isn't answering her phone!

Fraudulent activity alert!!

It's really awful how they're targeting my 91-year-old mum. Surely trading standards could step in and put a stop to this? It’s just not right.

Feeling daft here... Just got home from Cyprus and was a bit out of it. Got a message similar to the one above with the same reference number. I was in the doctor's waiting room, so I called the number back. The message on the other end said thanks for calling and that someone would be with me soon, so I just ended the call. The message arrived at 09:23 on 24/10/13. Don’t even want to think about how much that call might have cost me.

Got a text from +447463574650 today around 11:25 am, exactly like the one posted here. Thought it might be some kind of scam, so I just didn’t bother replying.

This fool has rung me a couple of times now, and since i never share my mobile number, it’s gotta be some sort of scam, no doubt about it...

How do they manage to get hold of our phone numbers? It’s crazy how they keep calling.
13 years
Got a text telling me to ring 07463574650 and mentioned a ref 331877. They didn’t say which company it was from or anything. Felt a bit fishy to me.
13 years
Got one of those "urgent" texts too, but obviously they forgot to mention what they want or who they are - typical. It had the exact same reference number, 331877, which was a bit odd.

Already blocked the number so I won't hear from them again.

Got a message from 07463579328 saying 'URGENT! We've been trying to reach you, it's important you get in touch with us today. Ring 08445715178 and mention your reference 331877. Cheers.' No calls came through to me and there's no way I'm calling that number back! What cheeky scammers!

I got one just like that earlier today. It was a message marked as urgent and included some kind of reference number. Honestly, it came through around 9 or 10 this morning, if I recall correctly.

Got a message from this number asking me to ring them back straight away, with a reference code included. Has anyone else heard of them before?
13 years
Got a message saying:

WARNING! We've been trying to reach you. It's urgent that we talk today. Ring 08445715178 and mention your ref 331877. Cheers.
Definitely not answering that, looks like a total scam to me.
Numbers like these ought to be blocked straight away.
13 years
All the messages I got used the same reference number 331877. Honestly, no point replying to them.
13 years
I got the same message and they never even gave me a call. Seems like just another one of those dodgy Accident/PPI claim firms trying to pull a fast one. I’m not bothering to answer - if it’s really important, they’ll try ringing back!
13 years
Just got the same message, didn't ring me first so I’m pretty sure it’s a scam!
13 years
Just got a message from them with a reference number, saying I need to ring them ASAP. Seems a bit urgent from what they wrote.
13 years
I tried calling them back from a landline but kept getting no response at all, funny enough the exact same thing happened to me earlier.
13 years
They hit you up with a fiver for every single minute.
13 years
They actually charge a fiver for every minute you’re on the line.
13 years
Got a text saying ‘IMPORTANT! We've been trying to reach you, it’s urgent you call today. Ring 08445715178 and mention your ref 331877. Cheers.’ It’s the typical trick with a reference code and then they just keep you waiting on the line for ages!
13 years
Just got a call from a number I’ve never seen before and I’m not planning on calling it back. Honestly, it feels a bit odd since the number’s totally new to me :s
