I received a call claiming unusual activity on my card, mentioning purchases at Shein and Amazon. I told the caller I never shop at Shein and had only bought something on Amazon today. He then recited the last four digits of a card that was compromised months ago, prompting me to label it a scam before he hung up. Two minutes later the same number rang again, but I ignored it.

Unknown calls in Ireland
Unsure about an Irish number? Explore concise community reports to judge calls and texts. In Dublin, Cork, Galway and Limerick you’ll see both legitimate callbacks (deliveries, banking, appointments) and waves of robocalls or phishing. Prefixes like 01 (Dublin), 021 (Cork), 091 (Galway), 061 (Limerick), 051 (Waterford) and mobile ranges (083/085/086/087/089) don’t reliably prove location/identity due to portability and VoIP — use them as context, not proof.
Verification: return calls via the official number on the company website/app, check in‑app notices, and never share one‑time codes by phone. Use device/carrier filters (e.g., 0818 shared‑cost, 1800 toll‑free) for repeat issues and leave a short, factual note here to help others.
At my telecom firm, an older client presented a message from this number that pretended to be PTSB, claiming her direct debit had been set up for a stranger named "Shane Doyle". We immediately blocked and reported it, since banks rarely disclose debtor names via insecure texts.
