Telephone spam is annoying and a big problem: Sweepstakes, insurance and lottery contracts are talked up to you over the phone – with dodgy methods. We show you the ten most important phone numbers that you shouldn’t answer the phone for.
The Clever Dialer app tracks spam calls and compiles the ten most annoying numbers month by month. Currently, many spam callers who want to talk you into electricity contracts or pretend to be public utilities are attracting attention. They want to get your meter number and account number. However, according to Clever Dialer, there is not only the electricity scam. Sweepstakes subscriptions are also in trend. It is striking how intensively the numbers are currently changing. November’s most annoying number no longer appears in December’s calls now presented. At the same time there is a new number one that is a mystery.
YOU SHOULDN’T TAKE THESE CALLS
The new place 1 goes to 06924743393805 . What the callers want is unclear. Clever Dialer’s comments just state that the calls are hourly and no one answers. “Very annoying,” comments one user.
The second most annoying number of December comes from Munich. Anyone who calls 08990423013 will be asked whether the electricity bill has already arrived. Then the meter number should be communicated. Don’t do that and just hang up. This also applies to calls from 01637875622 . Here you pretend to be the actual electricity provider by name and also want the electricity meter number – presumably in order to then conclude a new contract and collect a commission. Calls to 022165085679 and 040655890700 also deal with the topic of energy .
When you call 01784133263 , you are offered to re-enter a sweepstakes you said you just lost. The 01631672226 also claims that it is about competitions in which they supposedly want to help you delete your participation. You shouldn’t go into that. More sweepstakes calls come from 015210923002 and 032211076735 .
Last but, not least, the caller number 021332463885 claims that you have schools for unpaid installments. One can only guess how the conversation will end.
