This phone number contacted me, claiming to be from Bank of Ireland, and surprisingly had access to my personal details, including my name, address, email, and the last four digits of my credit card. They mentioned a suspicious transaction, but when I asked for verification, they refused to provide any information, which raised my suspicions and confirmed it was a spam call.

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.

Annoying noted by user

A text I received from this number alleges a problem with a postal order and directs me to an 'an post' site that isn’t the real An Post. Although the pages closely mimic the genuine site, the link leads only to a spam page requesting customs fee payment.
I've gotten several calls from this number; is anyone else dealing with the same problem?
