Expert Opinion

The pattern points to a classic financial scam run from a UK number. Callers often know your first name, mention “financial planning” or a fictitious adviser called Charlie, and then disappear after a brief, polite greeting. They target numbers across the globe – from the Netherlands to the UAE – to harvest personal details and sell bogus investment opportunities. If you receive such a call, let it go to voicemail, never confirm any personal information, and block the number straight away. Report the incident to your local consumer protection agency and, where possible, flag the number with your mobile provider to protect others.

Initially, the caller contacted my UAE mobile number, but when I didn't answer, they proceeded to call my office reception, where I was forced to take the call; the caller, who referred to himself as Muhammed, claimed I had a package shipment, but the address he provided for my workplace was incorrect, and I suspect this may be a scammer attempting to gather personal information
