Expert Opinion

Calls from this number often start with seemingly innocent questions about pets, home ownership, or personal details, delivered in a foreign accent amid background noise. Recipients report the callers hanging up when pressed for details, suggesting a ploy to gather data for scams or identity theft. Persistent ringing, sometimes multiple times daily, marks it as harassment. Block the number immediately on your phone to halt the barrage. Report to Action Fraud or your provider for wider protection. Never confirm any info, even basic facts—it's a common tactic to record 'yes' responses for fraudulent claims. Stay vigilant; these nuisances prey on politeness.
