Verify caller identities before sharing details. These persistent calls mimic legitimate insurers like Legal & General to extract personal info, but slip up on basic facts like your name or policy existence. Scammers often hang up when challenged, avoiding scrutiny. Register with the Telephone Preference Service to cut unwanted calls, and always block numbers like this. Report to Action Fraud if they press for data—better safe than sorry. Keep records of attempts for patterns, and consider apps that screen unknowns. Stay vigilant; these nuisances prey on trust.
Attempted to chat about a non‑existent life insurance policy, claiming to represent a firm linked to you, but they even got my name wrong. Hung up and blocked, mate.
Someone rang saying it was about my Legal & General policy and asked how long I’d had it – but I don’t hold one. I told them I’m on the do‑not‑call list and they hung up. Definitely a scan‑call, mate.
I hung up and blocked the caller who claimed to discuss a life insurance policy I don't hold.
