It appears that the caller, +441442033895778, is a scam artist, utilising pre-recorded messages to deceive and intimidate recipients into believing their national insurance number has been compromised or blocked. The messages often claim to be from a law enforcement agency, which is a blatant attempt to instil fear and urgency. Users have reported receiving multiple calls, with some even leaving messages on answerphones. The consensus is that these calls are nothing but nasty scaremongering tactics, designed to extract personal information from vulnerable individuals. Those receiving these calls are advised to hang up and ignore them, avoiding any interaction with the scammers, and certainly not pressing any numbers or ringing back. By being vigilant and aware of these tactics, people can protect themselves from potential identity theft and financial loss.
They left me a message saying that a national law enforcement agency is taking action against me, and my NI number is frozen, but it's obviousley a scam, the guy was very polite tho
The messages are scam recordings.
I recieved a pre-recorded message saying law enforcement was taking on a case with my national insurance number, and i had to press 1 to speak to my case worker
A recorded message from a woman, supposedly from BT's technical department, warned of compromised internet security.
A recorded message claimed my national insurance number was blocked and there was a warrant for my arrest, which is clearly a scam
A call was recieved from this number just a few minites ago, with a recorded mesage claiming to be from a law enforcment agency, stating that there was a lawsuit against me and that my national insurace had been blocked, which I beleive to be a compleat scam
My experience was identical to the previous report
I received a call from a scammer claiming to represent a law enforcement agency, stating that my national insurance number had been blocked, and warning me of potential consequences if I did not respond. It is essential to exercise caution and not return such calls, as they may lead to further trouble.
My experience is identical to the previous comments.
Identical to other reviews. It’s impossible for any law enforcement to use automated messages. My concern is for the elderly or vulnerable who might call back and fall into scams.
This is the second call in just half an hour. They even had the audacity to leave a message on the answering machine. Unfortunately, I lack a blocking device on my landline.
Rest assured, this is a scam: if someone claims your national insurance number is blocked, do not interact, as this is a ploy to steal your personal data; I had read about this scam previously and it's crucial to ignore such calls and not follow their instructions
