Is a call from 0114 a scam?
No area code is a scam code. 0114 is the code for homes and businesses in and around Sheffield, and a call from an 0114 number is usually just that. What the code cannot tell you is who is calling, and a scam call can show an 0114 number as easily as any other. Judge the call by what the caller asks for: a real bank, courier or council will never mind you hanging up and ringing back on a number you found yourself.
