Expertenmeinung
Imagine receiving a call from 0208 780 4180 with the caller claiming to be a Metropolitan Police officer. In many cases the number is indeed used by the force for follow‑up on recent reports, but scam actors also spoof it to harvest personal data. Always check the caller’s name on the screen, ask for a reference number and then hang up. Call the legitimate non‑emergency line 101 to confirm any request, especially if you are asked for bank details, passwords or to make a payment. Never share sensitive information with an unsolicited call, and report suspicious calls to your local police.

This is a police contact number.
The number belongs to the Met Police. If you ignore the "no caller ID", they’ll call back from this line because some people block unknown numbers. After speaking with them I double‑checked via 101 and confirmed it was legitimate.
Potential scam alert.

Were this a scam, the number wouldn’t have been active for more than ten years. It’s a legitimate Met Police line from central London; only those with something to hide or fearing police would rate it negatively. Just pointing out the TPS rating shows it’s exempt, meaning it’s been cleared as safe.
After receiving five missed calls, I looked up the number and realised it was a scam – thanks everyone.
After three rings I finally answered, and the caller said they were contacting me about a missing person, claiming they'd received my number. I told them I wasn't the individual, they thanked me and hung up, sounding sincere.

My phone rang briefly. It was right next to me, so I went to pick it up and they hung up. I reported a crime earlier today, so I suspect those commenting might be correct about it being the Met police. Just unsure why they disconnected so quickly. I wish people wouldn’t do that.
