Expert Opinion

Like a chameleon shifting colours to catch you off guard, these calls from this number often masquerade as trusted brands to hook unsuspecting folk. Reports highlight scammers posing as Amazon or Vodafone reps, with dodgy accents and quick hang-ups when questioned—classic red flags for fraud attempts. One caller even fumbled an outdated name on an account, scarpering when challenged. Poor line quality and abrupt endings are common too, sometimes followed by calls from other spoofed numbers. Treat every unsolicited ring with suspicion; never share details. Hang up straight away, block the number, and report to Action Fraud. If unsure, verify directly with the company using official channels—don't let them reel you in.
