Unexpected UK International Pension Centre message – what to do
Summary — +18333991067
Expert Opinion
Imagine getting an unexpected text that claims your UK pension has been processed, even though you never filed anything. These messages often mimic official language from the UK International Pension Centre, but the sender’s +1 area code and the unsolicited nature are red flags. Never click links or share personal data; instead, go directly to the official government website or call the known contact number for the pension office. If the text includes a life‑certificate request or passport reference, treat it as a potential scam and report it to the FTC and your mobile carrier. Block the number and monitor your accounts for added protection.
