Caution is essential with unsolicited calls like these, as they often mask deceptive intentions. Reports consistently highlight aggressive pitches for energy savings, promising hefty discounts such as 35% or 38% off bills, but refusing to detail costs or terms. Callers may pose as advisors or from firms like Direct Energy or Energy Direct Ltd, pushing for home visits or personal details that could lead to charges or data theft. Background call centre noise, silent hang-ups, and high-pitched tones on answerphones raise red flags. Block the number immediately via your phone settings or provider tools. Register with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) if not already done to cut cold calls. Never share info or agree to visitsâreport to Action Fraud if suspicious. Stay vigilant to protect against such nuisance scams.
It's obvious they're going through a phone book, when i told them i'm not the person they're looking for, they asked to confirm my adress, it's like trying to get blood from a stone to get info out of međ
