Greetings! We received a similar message just a couple of hours back from the number 07463979061, asking us to get in touch with them on a different number, 08445715193, and to mention reference 110991. Quite peculiar, wouldn’t you say?

I've received a message that mirrors the one mentioned above, with the same reference number no less! It strikes me as rather suspicious, to say the least!

We received the exact same message!

It’s evident that this message has been making the rounds. I received a text about two hours back, and we've just taken it down.

Received a crucial text message, prompting me to call the same number mentioned above, which also had the same reference number. Quite perplexing, isn’t it?
12 years
Does anyone happen to know who these individuals might be?

I got a message that was word for word identical to one I received previously, featuring the same reference number and the same contact number to ring. I suspected it was a hoax, so I didn’t bother to call them. Nonetheless, there’s something all of you can do! Simply forward the text to 7726 (which spells 'spam' if you use an old-school phone keypad) from whichever provider you're using, and they’ll look into it. Just pass on the message, and you’ll receive an automated response asking for the original number. I stumbled upon this helpful tip on the Telephone Preference Service site: http://www.tpsonline.org.uk/tps/stillgetcalls.html.

Absolutely, I can relate! My spouse received a text while she was on duty, and naturally, she forwarded the info my way because it had her feeling rather anxious. It definitely appears to be one of those dodgy schemes where some muppets are attempting to swindle money from gullible folks.

I got the identical message with reference number 110991 as well. Thank heavens I decided to do a quick search online before calling back.

I keep getting this peculiar message! WARNING! We've made several attempts to reach you, and it's crucial to speak with you today. Kindly ring 08445715193 and mention your reference number 110991. Cheers. DO NOT CALL, IT'S A SCAM!!!!!

I received a text from the number 07463 943282. Decided to look them up online before reaching out - certainly glad I did! I can't stand these dodgy scam messages!

I just got a message from this number that mentions the same reference as several others have reported. Honestly, what a complete farce! It’s a bit of a low blow, really, as I felt a flicker of concern about what might be so pressing. Thankfully, my common sense and a pinch of scepticism soon kicked in, prompting me to look up the number online. It feels even more bothersome than the typical spam calls or texts, I must say. Quite frustrating!

Just got the same message and reference number as everyone else - what a frustrating load of rubbish! How annoying!

Absolutely, I'm in the same boat with that 'reference' number. Just disregard the numpties!

I've just had a message with reference number 110991, but I didn't respond because I haven't been contacted by anyone at all!

I've received a staggering 13 calls from this outfit over just three days! To top it all off, I finally got a text suggesting I give them a ring on a premium-rate number. Absolutely furious!

My wife just received the identical message, right down to the same reference number. Definitely seems like a total scam, so I’d suggest deleting it.

By the way, I really appreciate that you let us exchange information without the need to create an account!

I've just had yet another message land on my phone, identical to those I've received before with the same reference numbers and all. It's starting to feel like an endless stream of spam!

On the 29th of October, 2013, I received the following message: "IMPORTANT NOTICE! We’ve attempted to reach you. It's crucial that we have a conversation with you today. Kindly ring 08445715193 and mention your reference number 110991. Many thanks." Given that they didn’t identify themselves, I’m inclined to think it’s a ruse, likely linked to a premium rate call.
13 years
Just received a message a couple of hours back referencing the number 110991 as well. Quite curious, isn't it?

I've received the same text repeatedly, but they haven't bothered to give me a call. I'm definitely not interested in ringing them back, either. You know what they say - best to avoid chatting with unfamiliar faces, or in this case, voices!

Received a similar message myself, but oddly enough, no calls have come through. Might be a good idea to shoot over an email to Action Fraud online and let them handle the sleuthing!

I got a message that echoed what others have been reporting, urging me to ring them back urgently. So, I gave them a bell, but ended up stuck on hold for a whopping 20 minutes. Definitely a scam!

I’ve had a text from +447463945535 that mentions the identical reference number.

I received a text message containing the same reference number, and I decided to look up the number without making a call. The results were quite helpful. Cheers to the team for your assistance! The reference number, as always, is 110991.

Beware of these con artists! They’ll charge you roughly 25 pence a minute and will keep you hanging on the line for ages, pocketing the bulk of your cash. Honestly, it’s not worth the bother-just steer clear and don’t return their call!

Received a missed call from 0843 832 0156 and shortly after got a text from +447463979061 saying, "URGENT! We've attempted to reach you; it’s vital we have a chat today. Kindly ring 08445715193 and mention your reference number 110991. Cheers." I shan't be giving them a ring. If it were truly significant, they ought to have left a voicemail or at least briefed me on the matter.

Received a message indicating that they were eager to reach me urgently. However, when I called back, I found myself stuck on hold for ages!

I got a message from 07463640496 mentioning reference 110991. I foolishly decided to ring them a couple of times only to be kept on hold for ages. Thankfully, as it came through my work line, it didn’t cost me a penny. However, it was utterly ridiculous-the promise of speaking to someone with the constant assurances that “all agents are currently occupied” and to simply hang on “for the next available agent” feels like a right con! Total scam!

I recently received a message from +447463950587 urging me to give them a call. Absolutely not! I can't stand these scammers. They're getting blocked immediately. (By the way, fantastic site-cheers for the insights!)

I received a text message too, and it’s likely just another dodgy scam.

I had a rather peculiar experience over the weekend, having been bombarded with ten missed calls on Saturday. To add to the mystery, I received a text instructing me to urgently return the call, citing reference number 110991. However, as they didn’t leave any voicemail, I have opted not to ring them back. It all seems a bit dodgy, if you ask me!
