Receiving insistent calls about medical life insurance from an Indian-accented caller raises red flags for potential fraud. Users report aggressive tactics, like pressing for personal details under false pretences such as NHS updates, followed by repeated attempts to ring back. Blocking the number is a smart first step, but also register with the Telephone Preference Service to cut down on unwanted calls. Never share sensitive info like insurance or health records over unsolicited lines—verify any claims directly with official sources. If it feels off, report to Action Fraud for investigation. Staying vigilant helps protect your privacy from these scam operations.
An Indian caller rang at 1.50 pm, asking about medical life insurance. When I said I couldn't recall details, he became pushy; I hung up, and after a repeat call I blocked the number (07441 472225).
They pretended to represent the BMA via an Indian call centre, requesting a quick update of my details for NHS records. After a few standard queries they probed deeper; I declined and hung up. When I tried the number again, they persisted, so I blocked them.
Pure scam.
