01253226838 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01253226838 👆 is reported as a nuisance scam call, often claiming to be from a local energy advisor but actually originating far away. Callers use techniques like asking "can you hear me?" to trick recipients into responding, potentially capturing voice samples for fraudulent contracts. The calls often mention loft insulation or supposed government grants, with the aim to gather personal data or consents. Many who answer find the caller silent or quickly hung up on. Despite numbers appearing local, the calls ignore the Telephone Preference Service, causing frustration. Users stress that these are scams designed to manipulate or trick, advising to report them to official authorities and block the numbers. The volume and sophistication of these calls are increasing, posing a notable risk especially to the vulnerable.

I just got a dodgy call claiming to be from my energy advisor, but they said they were from Blackpool, which is like over 300 miles from here. Definitely a scam!

Phone rang but when I picked up, they just cut off. Decided to block the number straight away.

Tried ringing but no one picked up and I didn't get a voicemail. Could be some sort of sales call or maybe a scam.

Got 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.

Got 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.

I 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.

I 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.

The 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.
