Phone number ☎️ 01253226838 👆 is reported as a common source of scam calls relating to loft insulation checks and energy advice. Callers often begin with vague questions like “Can you hear me?” to capture a voice agreement, which can then be exploited through fraudulent contracts or AI voice cloning. Many victims are unaware they’ve been targeted, despite being on the Telephone Preference Service (TPS). The calls frequently come from numbers claiming to be local but are not genuine and often involve silent calls or scripted messages promising false government grants. These nuisance calls are persistent and designed to gather personal information or record voice snippets for misuse. Multiple reports suggest these are aggressive and deceptive scams ignoring opt-out lists, urging vigilance and reporting to relevant authorities.

1 monthTried ringing but no one picked up and I didn't get a voicemail. Could be some sort of sales call or maybe a scam.2 monthsGot a call from a bloke asking about checking my loft insulation. He hinted there might be some sort of government funding available, but I didn’t share any of my details. I just ended the call quickly.2 monthsGot a call from this number earlier. It began with “can you hear me?” I’m always careful not to say yes straight away, you never know what dodgy deals they’re trying to rope you into. Then a bloke’s voice came on saying he was “James, an energy advisor in the area.” He guessed I wasn’t from Blackpool, which was right, since I’m nowhere near there. Classic one-time call, won’t be ringing back, just another scammer trying to trick people. Total rubbish.JamesBlackpool2 monthsI got a random call from 01253 226 838 on my landline which I hardly ever use, so I have no idea how they managed to get hold of my number. I'm registered with TPS, so they really shouldn't have rung me. Obviously, they just don't care about the TPS registry. It seems like a scam trying to collect personal details or record your voice saying certain words, probably for some dodgy stuff. Quite annoying and worrying really.TPS2 monthsI just received a call on our home phone, even though we've got our number on the TPS list. A lady asked if I could hear her alright, and as soon as I said yes, she said she was from the local energy advice group. It sounded dodgy straight away, so I hung up before she could say any more. Pretty sure it was a scam.TPS2 monthsThe call started with some young guy asking, "Can you hear me?" but then he just went silent. The number shows as from Blackpool, but honestly, it could be from anywhere really.Blackpool2 monthsIt was a call from Blackpool, but there was complete silence when I answered, and then they just ended the call.Blackpool2 monthsHad a robotic lady asking, "Is my voice clear to you?" Totally a scam call.2 monthsThe phone rang but when it went to voicemail, they didn’t leave any message.Submit Your Own Report (01253 226838)
