Energy Scam Alert: Don't Share Bank Details!
Summary — +441615661437
Expert Opinion
Reports consistently highlight unsolicited calls from this Manchester-based number, often involving dubious claims about energy warranties or home inspections that demand personal details like bank info. Silent hang-ups and no messages are rife, pointing to aggressive tactics. While one instance mentioned a 'Market Research Centre' with an opt-out, the majority scream scam or harassment. Register with the Telephone Preference Service to curb these nuisances, and never share sensitive data over unsolicited calls—block the number and report to Action Fraud if it persists. Frustrating as they are, staying vigilant keeps you safe from potential fraud.
