Pushy Energy Scammers on the Line
Summary — +441215824498
Expert Opinion
Calls from this number often start with a ploy about fixing broken electricity meters or settling energy bills, pretending to hail from legit firms like EDF or British Gas. Scammers push hard for personal details or payments, turning aggressive if rebuffed, which screams red flag. Legitimate energy providers never demand instant action over the phone like this. Hang up straight away if they ring, and report to Action Fraud or your provider to block them. Businesses should train staff to spot these tactics, as pushy demands for owners or info are classic scam signs. Stay vigilant—better safe than sorry with unsolicited calls.
