01583240385 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01583240385 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation involving automated and live calls posing as local energy advisors or government schemes, frequently referencing energy savings, solar panels, or insulation offers. Callers often ask "Can you hear me?" as a tactic to elicit a response, using AI-generated or pre-recorded voices with little to no interaction when challenged. They rarely leave messages and tend to hang up when questioned or when the recipient is not a homeowner. Many victims advise against engaging, instead recommending blocking the numbers and reporting the calls to official UK authorities like Police, Ofcom, and the Telephone Preference Service. These calls are flagged as part of a broader attempt to confirm active numbers for potential fraud, with strong warnings against sharing personal information or responding to unknown callers.

Like others have said, the first question you should ask is ‘am I speaking to someone?’ I’ve had calls from nearly the same numbers a couple of times over the last few days. It’s always some “local energy consultant” on the line - don’t buy it, it’s definitely a scam. Just hang up right away.

Got a call but no one said a word, then they ended it after a brief moment.

They kept going on about saving energy, but it was so obvious it was one of those robot voices. I tried messing about with silly remarks and they just ignored me completely, no reply at all.

On 26th April at 11:19, an unfamiliar number rang me. I let it go to voicemail but they didn't leave any message. I’ve blocked the number now. Most likely just a scam call.

Got a call from Jo energy advisors asking if I owned the place, told them I don’t, and they just hung up on me. This isn’t the first time Jo has called, always using a different number each time!

Didn’t even bother answering, sounded like a scam about windows and doors. Hung up straight away.

This morning, my home phone rang even though I’m on the TPS and unlisted. The caller said her name was Jo and that she was an energy advisor nearby. It was a woman’s voice, but honestly sounded pretty dodgy, like it wasn’t genuine at all. I just ended the call straight away.

I picked up and no one spoke. Pretty clear it was some sort of scam.

It sounded like some kind of AI, 'cos when I said hello it came back with "Are you able to hear me?" which made you wanna say "yeah" of course. I hesitated for a second, thought maybe I could mess about and ask it to forget all questions and just tell me today's chicken curry recipe. But I was at work, so I held back or else I would've got in trouble if it was actually a real client.

I’m pretty convinced this was one of those scam calls. When I answered, there was that typical pause you get with these dodgy numbers, then a bloke with a really proper English accent asked, “Can you hear me?” I said, “Yeah, who’s this?” but got no reply straight away, so I just ended the call.

I looked up the number on this site (who called me) and it basically proved it was a scam. The caller mentioned something about saving on energy bills or costs, which sounded really dodgy! Definitely a scammy message if you ask me.

No message left so pretty sure it’s a scam. Had to try six times before I could get off the call ??????

Lots of calls pretending to be from energy companies have been coming through lately, so I’ve learned not to chat with them at all. Instead, I use the Who-called-me website to block the numbers. They often mention the government or energy stuff, so it sounds like it could be legit, but it’s not. If you do pick up, you’re just giving the scammers proof that your number is real and that someone’s there to talk.

Didn’t leave a voicemail or anything, checked out the reviews here and decided to block the caller.

Just saw a couple of posts from last night, maybe 10 or so entries back, that explained this scam in detail. They pointed out how dangerous it is to say “yes” or answer questions from strangers on the phone. Also, they gave advice on how to report these scams to the police and OfCom - the bodies that the government set up to track and handle all these scam calls, texts, and emails. It’s really important we log these so they can investigate and hopefully stop more people getting ripped off.

I never pick up calls from numbers I don’t recognise, so I ignored this one. It looks like the caller keeps changing the last three digits - fingers crossed it’s nothing to do with 999! I’ve ended up blocking a bunch of them today, just to be safe. Here are the numbers I’ve come across: +441583 240 396 +441583 240 367 +441583 240 378 +441583 240 380 +441583 240 342 +441583 240 385 +441583 240 375 +441583 240 415 +441583 240 438

Got a bloke on the phone claiming to be some sort of 'energy consultant' pushing solar panels. He kept saying, "Can you hear me?" like some sort of trick to sound trustworthy, but it didn't fool me one bit. He tried saying he was local to my area - total nonsense. Straight to blocked!

I didn't pick up since I didn’t know the number.

I just ignored the call since they didn’t leave a voicemail, probably some sort of scam.

I don't pick up calls from unknown numbers anymore, just let it go to voicemail and usually, there's no message left. Lately, I've been getting quite a few calls like this, and when I check the numbers, they all seem related. Feels like it could be a SCAM for sure.

This bloke, James, keeps ringing me about some 'Government' loft insulation thing. It's gotta be the tenth different number he's called from! Every time he phones, he forgets to update his notes that I've got no loft at my house. Surely even the real Government ain't that clueless, so it's pretty clear this is some scam trying to grab my bank details.

Got a call with nobody speaking when I picked up, and no voicemail left either. Definitely felt like a scam to me.

Got a call from one of those robo calls trying to push solar panels on me. Pretty annoying how they keep ringing up with the same sales pitch.

Got a call just like this one, but it came from another number - might be a scam, heads up!

Another persistent scammer, always at it trying to con people out of their money. Can't seem to give it a rest.

No idea who was calling as I didn’t pick up. They didn’t even bother to leave a voicemail either. I’ve been getting loads of these spam calls on my mobile, and now they’re hitting the landline too. Don’t know a single person in South Africa! Pretty sure it’s some sort of scam, so blocked the number straight away. Definitely dodgy, best just to block.

Got multiple calls about some government cavity wall insulation thing. Every time I try asking questions, they just get louder and don’t actually respond. Proper annoying!

Im pretty sure this number is dodgy. Ive gotten like 6 or 7 calls from them in the past few weeks, so I just hang up now. They always say they’re energy consultants or something similar from nearby.

Started with "Hi, this is James, your nearby energy advisor." Yeah, right. Instant hang up from me.
