AI Summary
Based on 6 community reports
This London number is generating multiple scam reports with a high spam score of 90/100. Callers claim to be from major providers like EE and Vodafone, threatening that your phone number or SIM card will be shut down—a pressure tactic designed to panic you into giving up personal information. One caller actually asked for bank details directly. The inconsistency is telling: they've rung people on different networks claiming to be from providers those people aren't even with, and one report captured background noise suggesting a call centre operation. Do not give any personal or financial information to callers claiming to be from your provider. If you receive this call, hang up and contact your actual provider using the number on your bill or their official website to verify any claims.
