08445718147 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 08445718147 👆 is reported as a widespread scam across the UK, involving identical text messages urging recipients to call an 0844 number citing an urgent matter and a specific reference number. Recipients consistently describe the messages as unsolicited, distressing, and suspicious, without any prior contact. Attempts to return calls often lead to silent lines, hold music, or premium-rate charges, suggesting a deliberate ploy to defraud. The scam targets individuals potentially linked to previous enquiries, such as airport parking, but no legitimate organisations are confirmed. Experts advise ignoring these messages and not replying or calling back, as doing so may incur unexpected costs or enable further fraud. Vigilance and reporting such incidents to authorities are recommended to protect oneself and others.

Received a rather suspicious "urgent" text from this number. Seems to be a high-rate scam trying to scam me out of my money, if you ask me. The number in question is 07456320366.

What a rip-off! I reckon you’ve probably looked into the parking situation at East Midlands Airport before, or maybe even parked there yourself. I certainly won’t be using their services again. Take my advice-don’t bother calling the number!

I’ve just received a text from the same number claiming it’s urgent and that I should call this number, 08445718147. I won’t be returning the call, though.

Received a call from this number earlier, and shortly after we got a text. Seems rather suspicious, to be honest. Best to disregard it-if it were truly important, they would have sent a proper message.

I exchanged a few texts with 07456258168. I've tried reaching out to you concerning that matter, so I would appreciate a call back. I've reported both numbers to 7726 as spam.

They persistently ring me up.

I didn't get a call but shortly after received a text saying it was an important matter requiring a call back. I reckon it's a scam. Best to steer clear and not return the call. This seems like something that will lead to extra charges.

We received the same message regarding this number and were left on hold, so we ended up hanging up the phone.

Received a text from them just now. Definitely won’t be returning their call!

Just like everyone else lately, I received a text message claiming it was crucial to get in touch with them. Seriously? If it’s so vital, perhaps they should stop trying to pull a fast one on us!

Received a text from a different number urging me to ring this one immediately today!!!

"It seems rather essential that you reached out to me today," but without any further details? Quite suspicious, I must say!

Be wary of those looking to cash in on you. Don't sit on hold waiting around!

Got a call claiming it was urgent to talk today and mentioned reference 776913 - total scam!
13 years
Just like loads of other folks have said, this number keeps popping up with the same reference code, telling you to call straight away and stressing you out. Total scam if you ask me. Seriously, someone should report it and whatever you do, don’t go ringing them back.

I just received the exact same message with the exact same reference code, seems really sketchy to me.

Just like everyone else, I got a text with exactly the same message and no call before it. I decided to ignore it - if it really matters, they'll just call me, won't they?

Got a message with the same ref number on my phone too, so yeah, it’s definitely a scam. Don’t get caught out by it! I just wish I could find out who’s handing over mobile numbers to these scammers. Proper annoying.

Heads up! Someone's been trying to get hold of me and said it's really urgent to have a chat today. They asked me to ring back on 08445718147 and mention reference number 776913. Honestly, it feels a bit suspicious!

I got the same precise message and identical reference code on my phone asking to ring that number. Totally dodgy if you ask me, and there's no way I'm calling them back!

Got the exact same text here in Edinburgh, wonder if it's just a Scotland thing or if it's happening everywhere in the UK? It said, “Urgent! We’ve been trying to reach you, it’s really important you get in touch today. Ring 08445718147 and mention reference 776913. Cheers.” Seems a bit sus to me!

Absolutely fake, the reference number 3456789 is clearly made up. Not convincing at all.

Saw some other folks mention this too, they called me earlier today here in York. They gave a ref number 776913. When I tried to call them back, all I got was some awful music. The voicemail said something like "nms" or something like that... really odd :-). Or maybe I should say :-((

This morning I got the exact same message, and I'm actually out near the edges of Bristol - bit strange if you ask me!

I got the exact same message with the same wording and reference number - looks like a total scam or spam to me.

Got a message from +447456258164 today (19/10/2013 at 13:51) saying:

"IMPORTANT! we've been trying to reach you, it's really important to talk today. ring 08445718147 and mention ref 776913. cheers."

This looks like a total scam to me. I’d advise against calling them back - I reckon that number charges a premium or might end up costing you a lot more.

I got the same message too, pretty sure it’s some sort of scam!

I'm from Staffs and got that exact text, but funny thing - they never actually called me! Lol
