Opinione dell’esperto
Calls from this number often masquerade as legitimate inquiries, catching people off guard with claims of being from utilities or the NHS. Yet, the real intent emerges quickly through probing questions about home ownership or property details, which screams scam tactics aimed at gathering personal info for potential fraud. One report even mentions an attempt to take over the phone—alarming stuff that could lead to bigger security breaches. Block the number immediately and never return calls; report to Action Fraud if you've shared any details. Enable call screening on your phone to filter out unknowns, and consider registering with the Telephone Preference Service to cut down on nuisance calls overall. Stay vigilant—your privacy's worth it.

I blocked the missed call thanks to the info provided.
Received a call from 07488810166 on 10 July; the caller pretended to be NHS staff and asked if I owned the property. I told him it was none of his business and ended the call, then blocked the number.
Attempted to hijack my phone; I won’t be calling back.
