Made online purchase from Curry's and this number called a few hours later. Checked out number and found the info on this site. Looks like the scam has restarted.
Just placed and online order with Curry's . A few hours later I get a call from this lot. Surely Curry's should be stopping this type of scam
Pretending to curry’s trying request personal details and getting to me confirm my address and acting suspicious
I had bought an appliance from Currys at lunchtime and a man phoned and became very rude when I questioned what he wanted re the order and the delivery arrangements - he eventually hung up on me …
Didn't answer but I bought something from Currys. Something dodgy going on. How are they getting people's numbers? Contacting Currys to ask that question!
Hi all, thanks so much for this. I was suspicious so checked and exactly what other people describe (I just bought a freezer online) has happened here. Think Curry's should be aware since it seems to have been going on some time!!
I bought something from currys today early morning and saw two missed called from this number but after searching it and reading so useful comments here I know what's happening. It's a great site, proved to be v helpful.
Woman called me allegedly from Currys asking had I received my washing machine.I told her I hadn't ordered one but she insisted I contact customer Service.I asked what address it was being delivered to but said she could not divulge that information.I told her if she insisted on imposing the machine on me against my wishes I would have to sell it . The call came to an end and I still haven't received the washing machine, but I suppose I can live in hope.
Reading these replies it is abundantly clear someone is giving out customer details as I ordered an hour ago and then got called from this number. The Police need informed. Thanks for all your comments though community, so many avoiding this fraud by simply reading them.
I ordered yesterday and got the dispatch email today. I missed the call but have looked and saw all these comments. I feel like this should be something Currys should look into considering it’s been happening for 2 years now and he clearly has knowledge of who orders
Same here, spoke to someone in Curry's today and they said a customer of theirs brought this to their attention. maybe time we complained to Curry's as to where these guys are getting our details from.
This is still going on: I likewise bought a washing machine from Curry's yesterday and got a missed call from this number. I tried ringing back and it said 'no need to call back, we will contact you again'. Now I have blocked the number after reading these comments. I am alarmed to hear that all companies pass on details to third-party insurers! This has never happened to me before so I am a bit concerned about what Curry's are sharing.
Preordered a fitbit, got a missed call from this number who said it's Currys. Called Currys 0345 number and they said they knew nothing. Assuming they're trying to sell me more warranty like everyone else has said here.
Yep, ordered a d/washer from Currys and a couple of days later got a call from this number.
All companies pass on details to third party insurers. Washing machines, TVs, laptops are the items people spend money on for extended warranty. I would never do this over the phone and would be amazed if anyone was stupid enough to do so.
