An extremely loud call‑centre female claimed to be from Help for Heroes, asked intrusive questions about military or emergency‑service family connections, shouted so I hung up and blocked the number.

Expert Opinion
Beware unsolicited calls probing personal military history. These persistent nuisances often masquerade as charity reps from Help for Heroes, but reports reveal foreign accents, aggressive questioning, and dubious tactics that scream scam. Hang up immediately if they ask about your service record or family ties to armed forces—legitimate organisations won't cold-call like this. Block the number and report to Action Fraud to curb their reach. Stay vigilant; sharing details could lead to identity theft or further harassment. If in doubt, verify directly with the charity's official channels.

Scam
Hello Mr Tony from Bradford, have you served in the armed forces? We ask because you may need to fight.
Someone pretended to represent Help For Heroes; I ended the call when they asked if I was a veteran – a genuine organisation would already know that. Their foreign accent didn’t help.
