Expert Opinion

Calls from this number often spark suspicion, yet a handful of reports insist it's a genuine Oxfam fundraiser targeting existing donors. Most recipients label it as harassing or potential scam, citing repeated rings without voicemails and unsolicited nature that erodes trust. Legitimate charities like Oxfam do cold-call for donations, but persistent attempts without prior consent can feel intrusive. If you pick up, verify their identity by asking for specifics and cross-check on the official website—never share bank details over the phone. Block the number if it bothers you, and report to the Information Commissioner's Office if it borders on harassment. Staying cautious protects your info without missing real appeals.

Not fraudulent at all. Genuine contact from Oxfam, the established charity. They reached out because of my direct debit setup. Feel free to inquire about the source of your number, and if sharing bank info by phone isn't your thing, donate via their site instead.
