I enquired about the caller's identity, and Emily informed me that she was from the Energy Advice Centre checking if I qualified for complimentary home insulation. I explicitly stated that I would be filing a report with the Telephone Preference Service, which I have subsequently completed.

It seems I've encountered one of those pesky auto diallers, where there's absolutely nobody to be found on the other end. This sort of situation tends to crop up quite frequently with scam calls, doesn't it?

Received a call this morning, but they didn’t bother to leave a message.
