The 118‑type scammer wasted my time.
118 Scam Alert: Don't Fall for It! - +44 1642 262957 (01642 262957)
Summary — +441642262957
Expert Opinion
These calls from the number are undoubtedly scam attempts, masquerading as legitimate directory services to extract personal or business details. Reports consistently highlight aggressive tactics like unsolicited enquiries about ownership, refusal to identify properly, and ignoring TPS registrations, often ending in abrupt hang-ups or silence. Beware of sharing any information; such calls prey on curiosity and urgency. To protect yourself, always verify callers independently via official channels, register firmly with TPS if not already, and report incidents to Action Fraud promptly. Blocking the number helps, but scammers rotate lines—stay vigilant to avoid data breaches or financial risks.

Scam
Yet another scammer disregarded our TPS registration; I ignored the call and reported it to protect others.
I redialed after the call dropped, and a lady named Laura answered, offering no company name, claiming to have a listing for our firm and asking if I owned the business. When I pressed for identification, she said she was from 118, which was obviously false – clearly a scam.
A man claiming to be Dave from 118 called and I hung up straight away.
