Expert Opinion
Imagine receiving a call from +441224042972 and being told you’ve been in a car crash you never experienced. The pattern in user reports points to a harassing scam that repeatedly mentions accidents to provoke a reaction. Block the number on your handset and add it to your mobile’s spam‑filter list. Report the call to your network provider and, if you’re on the Telephone Preference Service, verify the registration hasn’t been breached. Consider using a reputable call‑blocking app and never disclose personal or financial details to unsolicited callers. Stay vigilant – if the pitch sounds too urgent, it’s probably a fraud.
