Caution is essential with calls from this number, as multiple reports indicate silent hang-ups or automated messages that scream scam tactics. Punters often hear nothing upon answering, or get pitched unsolicited energy advice from a supposed London-based caller, which doesn't ring true for everyone. This pattern aligns with classic nuisance calls designed to phish for details or waste your time. Best move: never engage, hang up straight away, and block the number to keep your line clear. If it persists, log it with Action Fraud for the bigger picture—staying vigilant stops these pests in their tracks.
