Expert Opinion
Like a locked diary, your personal details shouldn’t be handed out to strangers on the phone. When a call arrives from +448000232635 claiming to be from the Department for Work and Pensions, treat it as a verification step first. Ask for a call‑back number on an official letter or log into your online DWP account before sharing any personal data. Be wary of urgent language or promises of “good news” – these are common pressure tactics. Record the call, note the time and content, and report suspicious numbers to the Information Commissioner’s Office. Keeping a sceptical stance protects you from identity theft and unauthorised data use.

This is clearly a scam - refrain from sharing your personal details. A quick online search reveals the genuine DWP UC number is different, and this one doesn't match. If in doubt, make a note in your journal and await guidance from your coach.
