Imagine your phone buzzing with an unfamiliar number, and a stranger insisting you qualify for a free energy grant. This pattern matches a common scam that pretends to be a government‑backed scheme, often using a polite accent to build trust. If you receive such calls, let the caller hang up and never disclose personal details or bank information. Log the number and report it to Action Fraud or your telecom provider’s spam‑blocking service. Consider registering with the Telephone Preference Service to reduce unsolicited calls, and regularly review your call‑blocking settings. Staying vigilant and reporting quickly helps curb these persistent harassment attempts.
