Anyone else receive a call from 02008828585?

Options
Received a phone call from 02008828585 but don't recognise the code. Google search flags up London but never seen a London number like this. I would phone the number but concerned it could be one that charges you. Thanks

    Don't think it's a London number (probably diverted through) but just received one from similar ----
    020 0893 7903 , no-one there and doesn't ring on call back so it's probably scammers .
