Energy‑advisor scams – how to protect yourself
Summary — +442922
Expert Opinion
Beware of unsolicited calls claiming to be energy advisors or warranty providers. Under data protection law, genuine organisations will never ask for personal data such as age, bank details or property information without a verified reason. If a caller cannot clearly state their name, company and a legitimate purpose, hang up and do not engage. Use call‑blocking tools where possible and report persistent numbers to the Information Commissioner’s Office or Action Fraud. Keep a log of call times, numbers and content – this aids verification and helps authorities track patterns. Regularly review your privacy settings and beware of high‑pressure sales tactics.
