They call without mercy and have no regrets. Politeness and Modesty are seldom their virtues and their continious radiation of spam corrodes even the most hardened nerves of steel. How do we stop them? We must identify their trickery before they can employ their ways of deception succesfully. They may be only the tip of the iceberg but here they are, The Most Wanted of the UK:

1. 01613128082 tellows score 7 from Manchester
2. 01792455426 tellows score 8 from Swansea
3. 01613128035 tellows score 8 from Manchester

Well, Well, Well, guess who’s first and who’s second. The Duo Fatale from Manchester and Swansea hold their positions but welcome a third player to the party. ETA Claims from Manchester were effective in harassing people as our user “yve” states:

Driving me mad on my mobile, as I’ve not answered, the calls go to answerphone which obviously costs me to phone, but they never leave a message. Phoning me at least 4/5 times a day.

Across the globe our friends in the US of A don’t fare any better:

1.5852477707tellows score 7 from New York
2.8669367667tellows score 8 a toll free service
3.5165223472tellows score 7 from Garden City

He calls several times in the day n night. He text nude photos. If u ignore he stops for a while then changes his number and starts again. Other numbers used and reported 9172618481& 5164104735. Don’t meet with this man he is sick. Call the police

The USA Most Wanted excessively entertain the habbit of harrassing people day and night on automated terms. Once you successfully blocked a number they will obtain a new one and start with renewed vigor. Unfortunately we do not know much about these Spam numbers, so…

If you have any information on the above mentioned numbers share them with the community! Help us help you!

after reading your comments im glad i did not answer. Never had a loan in my life so they will be getting no answer from me.

Unbelievable! Those guys from Manchester, Swansea and Holmes Chapel seem to work very hard to sustain such an high amount of attention. Well, those who work too hard might suffer an “unsolicited” heart attack. Alas! Some callcentre agents might consider these as quite a nuisance. Maybe then they will percieve life as too precious than to waste their’s with petty redundant tasks. Let’s switch to our colleagues across the great lake:

Called stating my husband owed money on a payday loan, threating to have him arrested for theft. When asked company info, debt info, they got very angry yelling and hung up on us.

This weeks US pole position is held by a wannabe law firm that urges you to repay a debt without telling you whom you are indebted to. Second, a UK callcentre would like to advice you on computer security, a profession they should leave to others and last but not least a yet to be identified automated caller from the Big Apple makes people suffer.

Hello folks,

The first weeks of the year experienced a significant rise in search requests for spam and scam telephone numbers. As it seems the callcentre agents used the Christmas holidays effectively and refreshed themselves, so they may harass people with renewed ferosity. Here are the UK’s Most Wanted:

1. 01613128082 tellows score 7 from Manchester
2. 01792455426 tellows score 8 from Swansea

Jimmyod:

This company has called me daily for the last 2 weeks – even on saturdays. They have never left a message so I answered a call from them on Saturday to see what they wanted. They are3 selling PPI compensation. after the girl had tried to engage me in chat about how my day was going, she finally explained the reasons for her call. I informed her that I have never had loan protection and asked to be removed from their call list. I have still be phoned everyday since. I just recieved another call (evening this time) by quite simply the most unprofessional telesales person ever. When he told me he was calling about my loan, I asked what loan to which he replied “that’s what you are supposed to be telling me”. When I told him I had had no loans he just put the phone down. Steer clear of this bunch of tossers.

What an unpleasant supprise! The Manchester claims company holds the pole position in the first ranking of the year. On its heels a yet to be identified number from Swansea saves second place. Bronze goes again to the number from Holmes Chapel. Let’s have a look acorss the Atlantic ocean:

1. 4242281204 tellows score 8 from California

Hello folks,

the spammer’s week has been a busy one and pretty unnerving as well. Blessed are those with nerves of steel. Nonetheless, there has been a change on the podium.

UK’s Most Wanted:

1. 01613128082 tellows Score 7 from Manchester
2. 01792763475 tellows Score 7 from Swansea
3. 01482408582 tellows Score 8 premium rate service

The pole position is still held by last weeks number one, a claims company based in Manchester. 2600 search requests and 13 comments indicate a high level of activity this week. The self-proclaimed department of justice is still in hot pursuit and claims 2nd place again. Newcomer on the podium is The Money Group whose calls triggered 1500 search requests and 4 comments.

Our User chrissie offered an adequate resonse to one of the scammers:

They rang me 09.12.11 saying I was due a refund from a previous loan. I said to the young man ‘Well that’s funny because I’ve never had a loan in my life,’ then he offered to tell me a joke as a good will measure. I said ‘I’ve already heard a joke thank you.’ It turned into a giggle.

Across the Atlatnic ocean scammer strategies seem not to be far different from those employed by fraudsters in the Old World. Let’s have a closer look:
1. 2142831316 tellows Score 9
2. 905488209664 tellows Score 7
3. 9722178347 tellows Score 9

All quiet on the Western front as far as the ranking of the Most Wanted is concerned. Unfortunately, the most annoying of them remains unidentified. The second place goes to the $1m lottery scam. Last but not least, the De Soto based Metro News Service, Inc grinds the peoples gears with repetetive calls.

Liam had quite a suprise waiting for him at home:

I was abroad the last week. upon my return my answering machince welcomed me dozen of recorded calls of silence from this number. I called back and as it turned out, it’s a phone company on the quest for increasing their sales.

Last week’s Most Wanted of the North Americas were replaced entirely. Unfortunately, the most annoying of them remains unidentified. The second place goes to the $1m lottery scam. Last but not least, the De Soto based Metro News Service, Inc grinds the peoples gears with repetetive calls.

Will Nelson offers a great alternative to simply answering the phone:

I let my fax machine answer such calls I don’t know who they are.. But I would like these calls to stop

Well, that’s it. Let’s see what next week has to offer. Until then…

Take Care!!!
