I suppressed my CID and gave the number a call just for a lark. They have the recorded voice menu system for the credit provider that they are faking, they even make you wait a bit with on-hold music before they answer, so there's a bit of sophistication with this scam. It was apparent that I got the guy out of bed :-)
I pretended to be in a bit of a panic about the security issue and the guy (who spoke in a very British sounding accent) couldn't start pumping me for personal information fast enough, but he suddenly got really cagey when he realised my call had come from an anonymous number and became quite rude and demanding when he told me to call back from a number that he could see but I insisted that he sort my issue out on this call

What’s your experience with this number?
Phishing text message received from someone pretending to be a credit provider tries to get you to call this number, so I would consider it dodgey. It’s the usual thing – “we’ve stopped a large debit to your credit card for security reasons, but you need to talk to us immediately or we’ll put it through…”

Can you give me the IP address or some information on the author of the comment?
The quality of the forum matters to us a lot, so our ideal goal is that nobody needs any information on the author of a comment. However, it is possible that a potentially unlawful comment appears on the site. In that case, please contact the police who we will fully cooperate with to investigate the source of the comments.
Most comments are submitted anonymously. In this case we do not have the name or the email address of the author. We do not save readable IP addresses of posters either, only encrypted. We are, therefore, able to determine that for instance two comments were sent from the same device, but we are unable to provide a readable IP address.
