Expert Opinion
What might happen if you clicked that link in a message from a supposed energy provider? Reports suggest these calls and texts from this number often impersonate Octopus Energy, pushing for meter readings via dubious web links or smart meter updates, which scream scam tactics. Such approaches aim to harvest personal data or install malware, potentially leading to identity theft or financial loss. To stay safe, never share details over unsolicited contacts; instead, verify directly with the company using official channels. Hang up or delete immediately, and report to Action Fraud if suspicious. Forward the message to 7726 to flag it as spam with your network.
