Frequent calls from this number, often with women claiming to be from support services or carelines, have left recipients feeling harassed. Persistent ringing multiple times a day, hang-ups, and background call centre noise point to unwanted intrusions. While one polite offer of a free emergency pendant for over-65s seemed plausible, the mismatch in location raises red flags for potential scams or telemarketing ploys. Do not engage or share personal details; simply hang up and report to your phone provider. If you're over 65, verify any such offers directly with trusted sources like the NHS. Blocking the number helps, even on basic phones—consider apps or carrier tools for better control. Stay vigilant to avoid falling for high-pressure tactics.
She’s been ringing me many times each day, knows my name, and I’m now ignoring her
A female caller with an English accent rang this morning, offering a free emergency pendant for over‑65s. I thanked her but mentioned I’m already over 65 and don’t need tracking. She thanked me for the chat, but the number is from Maidstone, not my area, so I suspect it’s a scam.
Ignored a call that appeared this morning; later identified as telemarketing.
Calls from this number keep coming, only to be dropped abruptly.
When I first answered, a woman introduced herself as Karen from a careline, but disconnected when I questioned how she got my number; subsequent calls were similarly harassing.
Saw the warning about suspected spam, so i just let it ring off and blocked the number, telemarketing and all that
During the call, I could hear background noises from a call centre, but no one spoke to me
It's a scam
They called but left no message!
