I received a call claiming to be from Prestige Telecom representing EE, offering a phone upgrade because they said I was self‑employed or owned a limited company – which is false. When I disputed this, the caller requested the owner's contact number, and I replied that EE should already have those details if the call were legitimate. The line was then terminated.
Telecom Impostors Targeting Businesses

Expert Opinion
Reports consistently flag calls from this number as fraudulent attempts to extract personal or business details under false pretences. Posing as representatives from telecom providers like EE, scammers often claim eligibility for upgrades or plans to build trust before probing for sensitive information. In this instance, the caller targeted a supposed self-employed individual or company owner, persisting despite clear inaccuracies and abruptly ending the conversation when challenged. Block the number immediately to prevent repeat attempts, and report it to your network provider or Action Fraud. Never share details over unsolicited calls; verify any legitimate offers directly through official channels. Staying vigilant helps avoid potential identity theft or financial loss.
