Reports highlight a number masquerading as HMRC with threats of legal action and requests for personal details, marking it as a classic scam tactic. Other instances involve bogus claims about T-Mobile or 3 mobile services, like sim card termination or signal complaints, swiftly ending when challenged. Automated voices and abrupt hang-ups suggest robocalling bots probing for live lines, potentially leading to spam lists if called back. Block this number immediately and report to authorities like Action Fraud to curb its spread. Never share info with unsolicited callers; verify directly with official sources. Stay vigilant against such phishing ploys that prey on urgency.
Answered the call swiftly, then the line dropped. With 21 others already flagging this number, I reckon it's a bot doing the same to everyone, and calling back probably lands you on a spam list, mate.
Three calls warned me my SIM card would be terminated; after I complained about the poor signal, they simply hung up.
When the caller claimed to be from Three Mobile and I said I wasn't a Three customer, they responded with a rude remark and hung up.
A strange call came from this number; it began with an automated voice claiming HMRC needed to speak with me, placed me on hold with music, then a woman answered and asked how she could help. When I requested proof of identity, she told me to Google the Court of Appeals, shouted about needing patience, and tried to extract my personal details – the oddest scam I’ve encountered.
The caller pretended to be HMRC, threatened legal action and demanded I speak to an agent, so I cut the call short.
T‑Mobile called and, annoyingly, I answered. Turns out it’s a scam number used by various firms. Blocked it, mate.
