Expert Opinion
This number screams potential scam right from the start—multiple reports flag it as fraud, dangerous, and harassing. Callers persist with back-to-back rings, but wisely, folks are blocking and ignoring unknowns, especially non-local landlines. Smart move; answering could lead to pressure tactics or data grabs. Block it immediately on your phone or via carrier settings to stop the nuisance. Report to Ofcom if it keeps up, and consider apps like Truecaller for real-time warnings. Stay vigilant—unknown calls like this often push fake prizes or urgent fixes to hook you.

My phone flagged the call as coming from a known scam source, so I didn’t answer and blocked it straight away. They tried again twice within five minutes, which was infuriating.
