Expert Opinion
Like a wolf in sheep's clothing, this number slips through as a seemingly harmless call but packs a punch of deceit. Reports paint a picture of unsolicited robo-calls, often with a British-accented voice posing as HR for fake job offers or even impersonating Vodafone to snag personal details. Many flagged it as spam or fraud, with phones auto-blocking and callers hanging up when challenged. Block it immediately—don't engage, add to contacts, or share info, as it could be voice-recording for deeper scams. If you've answered, monitor accounts closely and report to Action Fraud for protection.
