Expert Opinion
Watch out for repeated calls from +442843780085 – they’re almost certainly a scam aimed at vulnerable people, especially the elderly. These callers typically pose as medical alarm providers, use scripted pitches and may even claim to have your health details. Never share personal data or banking information with unsolicited callers, and hang up if the conversation feels pressured. Block the number on your handset, add it to your phone’s spam list and report it to Action Fraud and the Information Commissioner’s Office. Keep your TPS registration up‑to‑date and remind family members to be sceptical of any unexpected health‑related offers.
