The scammers with the number 015170294736 appear to have bought consecutive SIM cards.
Technically well-equipped call centers try to defraud their victims daily with automated calls. The number 015170294736 is a well-known scam, but it still seems worthwhile.
The phone number 015170294736 is just one of a whole series of scam numbers. We have already warned you about 015170294730 and 015170294731. Now, they are trying a new final number. The cell phone numbers are displayed using call ID spoofing, while the perpetrators are based in a call center.
What does the number 015170294736 want?
These calls are a modern variation of the old prize scam.
According to a voice message, you have supposedly won a large sum. If you want to claim the prize, press “1” on your phone.
This trick ensures that scammers achieve a high call frequency because personal contact is only necessary afterward. On the other hand, only gullible contemporaries are passed through to the call center, who are more accessible to convince.
During the phone call, it turns out that you haven’t won anything yet, but only the “chance to win the main prize.”
To increase your chances, you should take out a magazine subscription, for example.
The call center employees try everything to get your account details. They already know your data (illegally purchased data) and ask for it, so you have to answer “Yes” on the phone: “Am I speaking to…”
If you don’t hand over your data, they pressure you: “You’ll lose any chance of winning the jackpot!”
Of course, this is not true. You should not accept calls or block numbers.
