A quick scan of the recent complaints shows the number is repeatedly linked to Postcode Lottery‑style scams. Callers habitually claim a prize or rebate, use Indian or other foreign accents, and hang up the moment you question the request for bank details or personal data. The frequency of silent drops and vague recorded messages further signals a fraudulent operation rather than a legitimate service. To stay safe, never disclose account numbers, tax references or any sensitive information over the phone. Verify any supposed winnings directly with the official Postcode Lottery website, block the caller, and report the incident to Action Fraud or your phone provider.
Upon questioning, the call was transferred to a supervisor by a lady with an Indian accent, regarding a PPI compensation tax return I had never received.
This number called 10 minutes ago, talking about the postcode lottery, offering discounts, holiday apartments, and claiming to deposit £390 into my account. They asked for my email address and bank details. I told them it was a fake account, and the man with an Indian accent laughed. I hung up. Be cautious; they might use your personal details for identity theft or scams. Don't share anything, and end the call however you see fit. Have a good day.

Had a call today claiming to be from the Postcode Lottery. They offered to send a card for 50% off my next supermarket shop and £399. They asked for my bank details, which I never provide over the phone. The offer sounded ridiculous. The callers had foreign accents, one male and one female.
The caller claimed I was eligible for a tax refund and asked me to specify an account for the payment, but hung up when I expressed my skepticism about discussing financial matters over the phone.
Unfortunately, there was no one on the other end to engage with, which was disappointing as I was prepared to play along

A Chinese woman called from 01224 015 315, stating I was due an HMRC rebate. She requested my account number for payment. I questioned why HMRC would owe me money. After five minutes, she hung up. Remember, HMRC never calls about rebates—never share your details.

A scam pretending to be the postcode lottery.
Despite appearing to be a genuine Post Office number, it's actually a scam, so refrain from returning their call or ringing the number back.
When I see an unfamiliar number, I answer but stay silent. Often, their systems are voice-activated, and the call ends, confirming it’s a scam. They called twice within half an hour.
There was a call but no message was left.
