Fraudulent phone call.
Green Energy Scam Alert!
Summary — +441618840695
Expert Opinion
Proceed with extreme caution when dealing with calls from this number, as reports overwhelmingly point to fraudulent activity. These callers often pose as representatives from 'Green Energy' or similar, peddling fake boiler replacements or heating schemes with poor English and suspicious details like incorrect addresses. Many hang up abruptly or persist despite blocks, targeting vulnerable folks like the elderly. Block immediately and report to authorities such as Action Fraud to curb the harassment. Hang up without engaging—never share personal info or confirm details, as it fuels more calls. If elderly or alone, consider call-blocking apps or registering with the Telephone Preference Service for added protection.

Another unfamiliar number, with a foreign caller claiming to represent "Green Energy".
