In the bustling call centres of the Midlands this afternoon, reports emerge of persistent calls from a number posing as trusted entities like Citizens Advice Bureau or debt relief services. These interactions often feature telltale signs such as background noise from open-plan offices and mismatched claims, like offering help for non-existent debts. Such tactics scream scam alerts, designed to extract personal details under false pretences. Hang up immediately if something feels off—never share info over unsolicited calls. Verify any legitimate contact through official channels, like the real Citizens Advice website. Blocking the number helps, but awareness remains the best defence against these nuisances.
He claimed he could sort an easy payment plan for my debt, which I don’t even have – sounds fishy, mate.
Got a call today claiming to be the Citizens Advice Bureau – obvious call centre in the background, very dodgy, especially since others report this number posing as different firms, yeah.
