Yesterday afternoon around 13:22 on 24/04/25, this number contacted me. The voice was faint, and I repeatedly requested they speak louder. After about ten minutes, the man mentioned my father's name, claiming he was hospitalised with a filed complaint. I promptly rang the hospital with the details, and staff warned of someone impersonating a GP. Regarding the call, the connection was muffled with background music, he identified as MIKE, and when I inquired about his location, he fell silent.

Expert Opinion
This incident screams scam alert – impersonating hospital staff or GPs to exploit family worries is a classic tactic. The muffled voice, background music, and dodgy details like knowing your dad's name suggest a fraudster probing for info or cash. Smart move verifying with the hospital; always do that first. Hang up instantly on unsolicited health-related calls, especially from unknowns. Block the number and report to Action Fraud via their site or 0300 123 2040. If they ring back, don't engage – record details for police if it escalates. Stay vigilant; these lot prey on emotions.
