Expert Opinion

Beware of unsolicited calls like these, as they often lead to financial loss. Reports consistently point to scammers posing as energy providers or utilities, such as Octopus Energy or National Grid, pushing fake meter replacements or deals. Hang up immediately and never share personal details. To stay safe, register with the Telephone Preference Service to cut unwanted calls, and report suspicious numbers to Action Fraud. If they've got your data, monitor bank statements closely and consider a credit freeze for added protection. These tactics prey on confusion, so verify any claims directly with official sources.
