01182305240 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01182305240 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance originating from a cluster of local numbers, often linked to a consistent scam involving supposed energy advisors or loft insulation surveys. Callers typically disconnect abruptly, remain silent, or hang up when questioned, frequently targeting ex-directory or unrecognised numbers without leaving messages. The approach is aggressive and non-compliant with the Telephone Preference Service, prompting users to block the numbers and report the activity to Action Fraud and other official bodies. Repeated calls and dubious tactics strongly suggest this is a fraud operation aiming to extract personal or payment details under false pretences. Recipients are advised to exercise caution, avoid engagement, and consistently report such incidents to help authorities curb the volume of these scam calls.
