Expert Opinion

Calls from this number often masquerade as legitimate insurance queries, mentioning Direct Line to build trust, but they're really phishing for personal details. Recipients report foreign accents and knowing their first names, which raises red flags for data breaches or cold calling tricks. No genuine company would pressure for info without prior contact. Block immediately and report to Action Fraud if details were shared. To stay safe, verify any claim directly with the company using official numbers—never callbacks. Hang up on unsolicited insurance pitches; they're likely scams designed to extract sensitive data like policy info or bank details.
