Many report silent calls or immediate hang-ups when challenged, with no messages left on answerphones.

A couple days back, I got the same sort of call on my mobile, and it’s clearly a scam. It’s worrying because I’ve registered with TPS and never share my number unless I’ve checked who it is. I didn’t even answer when they first rang, and my mobile and landline numbers aren’t linked in any way. Just can’t figure out how they managed to get hold of both.

Got a call from someone claiming to be an energy advisor, sounded like she was from Australia. When I raised my voice a bit, she just cut me off straight away. Made me laugh, honestly! 🤣

I've been getting calls from someone saying they're an energy adviser working for the government. Our number’s unlisted and we’ve got the Telephone Preference Service set up, but since they won’t say what company they’re with, there’s no way to complain through the normal channels. They ring us loads of times each week, but now we’re just starting to block their number.

We've been contacted by this woman before, but from another number. It's an Aussie lady named Jo claiming to be an energy advisor for our region. When I asked her a couple of times which area she meant, she just ended the call on me!

It’s not illegal as of now but I always avoid picking up calls from numbers I don’t know. Better safe than sorry.

I reckon this might be some AI trying to get my voice or something, since I was quiet when I picked up. Had another call about an hour before that, so probably still distracted.

Got a call from an energy company but didn’t pick up cause it went straight to voicemail. Definitely felt like a scam.

Every week I get a ring from a lady claiming to be 'Jo, your local energy adviser'. I've told her loads of times that I have no interest and that she keeps ringing too often. Not sure if she’s just some kind of robot, fingers crossed she eventually runs out of charge! Would be nice if she took the hint one day.

Got a call earlier, from somewhere in Manchester, but I’m in Colchester. The bloke said he was Jo, some local energy advisor or something. You can spot these scam calls easily - there’s like a few seconds of dead silence at the start, then a weird little whoop noise before some dodgy automated message kicks in. Total hassle.

Got a call at 17:38 from a woman named Jo, claiming to be with the "energy team." She asked for confirmation on the subscriber’s name - seemed a bit off, maybe a scam?

Got a call on my home phone tonight from a number I didn’t know. Decided to look it up here and, sure enough, it turned out to be yet another scam despite me being on the TPS list.

I got a call on my home phone from a number I didn’t recognise, so I just let it ring out. I only share that number with close family and work, so if it’s not one of them, it’s probably dodgy. I’ve learnt not to pick up calls from strangers - most times it’s just some scam. These days, even talking to these sorts of callers can be risky, especially with all this AI stuff going on.

I've received calls from this outfit three times now, using the numbers 0161 520 2891, 0191 580 0082, and 0161 850 8672. They claim to represent an energy firm and are inquiring whether I’m the property owner. It’s becoming rather bothersome!

Got a call from a guy with a London accent, saying my house was flagged for poor loft insulation or sumthing. Seemed a bit fishy to me, so I told him I wasn’t interested. Not a super obvious scam, just a sales call I didn’t ask for, especially since my number is on the TPS.

Got a call from a woman speaking English with a typical South Asian accent, but the moment I answered and said "hello," she just hung up straight away. Definitely felt like some kind of scam.

The number was unfamiliar, so I just ignored it. Pretty clear it was one of those scam calls.
