Sky Scam Alert: Silent Calls Exposed!
Summary — +441174413481
Expert Opinion
Like a fox in the henhouse, these silent or pushy calls from unknown sources sneak in to probe your defences. Reports paint a picture of nuisance tactics, from empty lines testing if numbers are active to recorded pitches for dubious heating deals or Sky offers that scream scam. Often, it's the prelude to heavier harassment, with follow-ups peddling fake contracts or worse. Block the number straight away on your phone, and register with the Telephone Preference Service to cut down on unwanted rings. If they persist, log it with Action Fraud for the bigger picture—better safe than sorry with these digital pests.

Harassment Call
The call was silent on the other end, almost certainly spam.
When I answered, there was no one on the line – clearly a test of whether my number is active. In past instances, this soon leads to Indian callers offering phone contracts, which is a scam. Do not trust.
A recorded message urged me to call back for supposedly exciting heating‑company offers. I suspect spam and have blocked the number.
