01970607669 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01970607669 👆 is reported as a persistent scam originating from callers posing as a fake government or security agency, often named "State Protection Service," targeting homeowners with alarming claims about new government rules forcing the sale of property to cover care home costs. Callers, frequently identifying as James or Steve, use aggressive and misleading tactics, refusing to provide details or respond to questions. Many victims note the calls are unsolicited, despite numbers being registered with the Telephone Preference Service, and no legitimate organisation of this name exists. Attempts include pitching joint supplements or boiler cover as well. Users advise not to engage, to block the number, and to report incidents to official fraud and regulatory bodies to help combat this fraudulent activity.

That number, 01268 859762, is new but it's still James calling. He’s from State Protection Services, and yep, his voice still sounds super posh.

I got a call from someone named Roy who said he was ringing from a famous clinic over in Sheffield. He started going on about some joint supplements and even said I should remember him from a call last December. The bloke was really pushy and a bit rude too, so I just hung up. After that, I rang the clinic myself and they told me they don’t have anyone called Roy on their staff and they never cold call people like that. Definitely felt like a scam to me.

Just got a call from some bloke called James claiming he’s from State Protection Services. He started going on about how I should be scared of ending up in a nursing home and having the government grab my money and stuff (I nodded through his whole load of nonsense). Then he tried to convince me to pay a ‘small’ fee to his mysterious company to avoid it all. Don’t fall for it, it’s a total scam! Best block that number quick.

I recently got a rather peculiar phone call from an individual purporting to represent the 'State Protection Service' at 01970607669. The chap went on about some supposed adjustments in Government regulations. While he was droning on, I took the liberty of typing the number into Google, and I was met with a plethora of search results and an avalanche of reviews dating back to the beginning of August 2022. It seems quite evident that we're witnessing the emergence of yet another round of scams, so do stay vigilant, everyone!

I got a call from some supposed State Protection Services, saying they’re from North London. They claimed it’s about folks going into care homes and warned that a lawyer would make sure the state takes all your money and property because of some new law. Sounds like a total scam to me.

Had a call from 01970 607669 earlier, some bloke called Steve claiming to be with "State Protection" or summat like that. He was on about how some folks have to sell their homes to cover care costs. Sort of the same story I got from a nearby number too, 01970 607653. Strange coincidence!

On the morning of Monday 5th September 2022 around 10am, I got a call from a guy named James who sounded really sure of himself and was quite polite. He claimed to represent some government security department and asked if I'd caught the BBC News about new rules where people might be forced to sell their homes and use the money to cover care home costs. As soon as he mentioned that, I instantly felt it was a scam. I said I had to go and ended the call.
