Fake holiday win scam alert!
Summary — +442080561297
Expert Opinion
Screen unknown numbers before answering to dodge persistent nuisances. Reports highlight repeated calls peddling fake holiday wins, like a three-night Barcelona getaway, tied to vague past purchases with unnamed partners. Callers push for a nominal £2.99 post-and-packaging fee to snag your card details, often leading to bank drains. Hang up immediately on such pitches—never share financial info. Block the line and report to authorities if it harasses further. These tactics scream scam, preying on excitement for freebies. Stay vigilant; genuine prizes don't demand upfront payments from strangers.

Harassment Call
Number 020 8057 1297 closely resembles the previously blocked 020 8056 1295.
Multiple calls claimed I’d won a three‑day getaway requiring payment for postage and packaging to claim it; suspecting a scam, I asked them to stop calling.
Someone claimed I’d won a three‑night Barcelona trip due to a past purchase with a partner, so I ended the call, suspecting a ploy for my financial details.
They phoned claiming I’d earned a three‑night holiday after a purchase with an unnamed partner – the prize worth over £600, with just £2.99 postage and packaging to pay. When I pressed for the partner’s name they were vague, so I hung up. Definately a scam; they’ll drain your account once they snag your card details.
