Imposters pretending to be Tear Fund. Persistent calls. Both harassing and fraudulent.
Harassing Scammers Posing as Aid Groups?
Summary — +442045426982
Expert Opinion
Ever wondered why unsolicited calls like these persist despite your best efforts to block them? Reports paint a picture of persistent callers masquerading as charities, such as Tear Fund or a Missionary Society, to extract personal or banking details. One interaction involved a caller named Ad Donna, but no legitimate organisation was confirmed, and attempts to verify often lead to holds without answers. These repeated attempts, including voicemails with nothing said, scream scam tactics designed to harass and phish. Don't share any information—hang up immediately and report to Action Fraud. Blocking may fail due to number spoofing, so consider apps for advanced filtering to stay one step ahead.

Harassment Call
Four calls have been received from this number, one even reaching my voicemail without leaving a message. Attempts to block it fail as '02045426982 is invalid', so I've labelled it as harassment.
Since the number was unfamiliar, I did not answer, and as expected with scam calls, no message was left.
