We keep getting a phone call from (Home number as well as Mobile).
0800 052 1251
FIVE times today, annoying and feels like a SCAM. The line is crackly. And there is a pause after I say hello. I said Bonjour the last time for a laugh. (That's all the French I know LOL).
Now with all the scams (phoning on Home phone and Mobile number) I'm very cautious about anyone from claiming that they are from Virgin Media even though it's a 0800 number.
Now on https://www.unknownphone.com/phone/08000521251 It is stating this
️ According to the reports sent by our users on our website and app, the phone number 08000521251 seems to be related to a holiday scam call. The phone number that called you seems to be a genuine number from Virgin. However, considering this phone number has been previously reported as a scam, please keep in mind that the call you received might have been spoofed by fraudsters.
Thanks.
