Expert Opinion
It appears that the caller, supposedly named Chris, is involved in a potential scam related to loft insulation, targeting various individuals, including those who are registered on the Telephone Preference Service (TPS). The calls are often aggressive and scripted, with the caller hanging up when questioned or confronted. Many users have reported receiving multiple calls from similar numbers, suggesting a coordinated effort to contact as many people as possible. Based on user insights, it is essential to exercise caution when receiving calls from unknown numbers, especially those claiming to be from local energy providers. To protect yourself, it is crucial to be wary of callers who are pushy or evasive, and to never provide personal or financial information to unverified individuals. If you receive a suspicious call, it is best to hang up and report the incident to the relevant authorities, such as Ofcom.
