Expert Opinion

Unexpectedly, the pattern emerging from these reports points to a classic scam offering free boiler replacement. Callers flash a fake government or benefits banner, use strong Indian accents and promise free boiler or loft insulation in exchange for personal details. The sudden hang‑up after a brief greeting is a hallmark of the ping‑call technique used to confirm active numbers. Block the number on your handset, add it to the TPS register and never disclose bank or identity information. Verify any legitimate offers directly with the official department and report suspicious activity to Action Fraud. Staying sceptical and keeping records are your best defences.
