What a 012064 number tells you

What it is

Watch out for

A local-looking number feels familiar, which is exactly why scammers spoof them. A local area code is not proof the caller is local.

The range holder isn’t necessarily the caller. Ofcom gives numbers to providers in blocks, and people and businesses can take their number with them when they switch. To find out who actually called, check the full number.
