7 yearsLike many others have mentioned, this seems to be a so-called security company.7 yearsGot a call from someone pushing security systems, sounded a bit dodgy. I just ended the call straight away. Reported it to the Information Commissioner's Office because felt like harassment. I'd suggest others do the same - they usually get huge fines if caught.Information Commissioner ' s Office7 yearsGot a call today from someone claiming to be with Sure Security trying to sell their services. Played along and asked loads of questions just to keep her occupied for a bit. Honestly, don’t pick up if this number rings you, it’s a total scam, definitely block it!Sure Security7 yearsSwitched our landline over to a BT call blocker with an answering machine recently. Now, any unknown number gets sent right to the answerphone. Not sure yet if it’ll keep the nuisance calls at bay (which is why I’m looking up this number). But at least, I don’t have to pick up every time it rings. Weirdly, we’ve not had much stuff left on the answerphone either.7 yearsI'd recommend using an answering machine to filter your calls. Real callers will drop a message, but scammers usually just hang up. Trust me, it really helps and they’ll soon give up bothering you.7 yearsSaw what folks were saying here and chose not to pick up.

Definitely a scam if you ask me.7 yearsI picked up but there was no one on the line.7 yearsGot a call from this number out of the blue, they were trying to sell me some home security stuff claiming burglaries are up in my area.

It definitely felt suspicious to me.7 yearsGot a call trying to pitch some alarm systems, I hung up and blocked the number straight away.7 yearsGot a call from someone with a Chinese accent, telling me to “secure my home” because there’s been loads of break-ins nearby. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.7 yearsGot a call from someone pushing burglar alarms, but they had the wrong address and name for me.
