Maurice reported on the first number this week and sounds quite angry about the calls:
lol….. is this actually happening? who calls 12 times in a row and then hangs up after only 5 secs…. I’ve quite a list of inappropriate words I’d like to throw at their heads right now.
As 541 people were already looking for the owner of this number, this cannot be a private one. Any hint is very welcome here!
A lot more users try to find information on this number though: 0800222378. As far as Dazedand and other users tell us, this is obviously a scam:
Put a letter in my parents’ mailbox asking them to call Alex asap on this 0800 number. No reason why, no return address, no surname. My parents threw it away.
Number three in our todays most wanted list might be a debt collection company. Anyway, there is not that much evidence for it, as only one user commented here. Whenever you receive a call from 099769580, be aware, that already 1936 search requests were registered on tellows, there is certainly something wrong here!
Nevertheless, we still find some helpful numbers nowadays as companies sometimes also call to actually help their customers. Let’s have a look at number four on our list today, coming from Sydney:
Received one, it was from VirginMobile Australia. (called to resolve some issues reported to them recently).
Nothing to add there, thanks for sharing your knowledge, Ah Gav!
That’s it for today, have a good week,
your tellows team
