Expert Opinion

Calls from this number often come across as helpful government or consumer support, but they quickly turn dodgy by probing for personal details like your age, property ownership, or retirement status. Spotting the trap early, like refusing to confirm your name, is a smart move. Scammers thrive on yes/no answers that can be recorded and misused, so always hang up and don't engage. To stay safe, register with the Telephone Preference Service to cut down on nuisance calls, and never share sensitive info over the phone. If suspicious, report to Action Fraud right away for a proper investigation.

Received a call from someone claiming to represent a government‑backed energy assistance scheme; the caller, named Matthew, asked a series of yes/no questions about age, property ownership, loft presence, and employment status before requesting name confirmation, which I refused.
