O2‑style scam calls – how to protect yourself!
Summary — +44330
Expert Opinion
Surprisingly many callers hide behind 0330 prefixes, masquerading as utilities, telecoms or insurers to harvest personal data. The pattern suggests organised spam operations originating abroad, often pitching bogus discounts or urgent account updates. Hang up immediately if the caller asks for passwords, bank details or a payment link, and never confirm information you did not initiate. Register the number with your carrier’s block list, enable call‑screening apps, and consider a secondary line for unknown contacts. Report persistent offenders to the Information Commissioner’s Office – collective complaints help trace the networks behind these scams.
