O2 impersonation scam – stop the calls!
Summary — +442038073524
Expert Opinion
Obviously, this 020‑380‑73524 number is linked to persistent scam calls impersonating O2. Callers tend to hang up as soon as you demand details, or they rush a fake offer before you can verify anything. Protect yourself by never sharing personal or financial information to unknown callers, and by letting the call go to voicemail before deciding to answer. Use a call‑block app or your provider’s block list to stop the number from ringing again. If a relative, especially an elderly person, receives such a call, advise them to ignore it and report the incident to the relevant fraud helpline.
