Yesterday a bot rang me, claiming I could bag £8,000, posed a simple question I deliberately answered incorrectly, then offered to transfer me to a team member to collect my £1.80 entry fee. I told it to go away and the call ended. Clearly a ploy to harvest bank details. STAY ALERT!
Prize Scam Alert: £8000 Lure Exposed!
Summary — +442045252884
Expert Opinion
Like a wolf in sheep's clothing, this number hides a classic prize scam behind promises of easy cash. Callers use bots or scripted voices to lure you with tales of £8,000 wins, then quiz you on simple questions before pushing for entry fees or personal details. It's a ploy to extract bank info or money—hang up immediately if you spot the signs. Block the number straight away, report it to your phone provider, and never share details over unsolicited calls. If you've engaged, monitor your accounts closely and contact your bank. Stay vigilant; these tricks prey on curiosity but lead to regret.
