This chap had my entire name, both first and surname, along with my maiden name, and even my correct address. He boasted he was ringing on behalf of Scottish Power to inquire about my present gas and electricity bills. Naturally, I swiftly blocked the number!

I've never met anyone from Buckingham and I don't take calls out of the blue. If they ring me and don't say anything, they just get put straight on the block list. Probably just some scam artists.

I received a call from an unrecognised number, and the caller inquired about an unfamiliar individual. Then, they proceeded to ask if I was the current holder of this phone number. I can’t help but feel this might be one of those scams I’ve read about where they’re just fishing for a "yes" answer from you. Best to be cautious!

That definitely seemed like a dodgy call!
