Just got a dodgy call, total scam, watch out!

For certain, this is a con artist. <br/><br/>Interestingly, BT claims they have no knowledge of the number and are unable to block or stop calls coming from it...

This person keeps ringing me but just tweaks their phone number a bit each time, since I always block the last one they used. It’s honestly getting really annoying!

Got a call from someone claiming to be a local energy advisor. I’ve had this before and it’s always a con. They never actually know where you live or what kind of place it is, and they never mention which firm they’re working for. I just kept chatting with him to drag it out and mess with their heads for a bit. Honestly, it’s quite satisfying to make them waste their time and lose their nerve.

BT Call Guardian caught the call before it went through, so it didn't get connected.

I received a call purporting to be from United Utilities, but it definitely seems dodgy to me.

I received a call from a woman claiming she could help me reduce my energy expenses. It felt a bit dodgy, almost like a scam.

Just got a call at 4:53pm from an 020 number again. I picked up but all I got was the answerphone, no message left. I've gone ahead and blocked it, but I bet they'll just switch to a new number soon enough. ####

These guys never leave a voicemail, which is a big red flag. Pretty sure it’s some kind of scam.

On 11th July 2024, I got a call from this number. When I dialled them back, it came up as Utilities. They offered 4 choices: 1 for sales, 2 for accounts, 3 for order questions, and another option I can't recall. I picked option 2. A voice told me I was valued and to hang on while they connected me to an agent. After around 20 seconds, the call just cut off. I tried option 1 next, but the same thing happened. I’m from the North West, where United Utilities handles our water. We had a big water outage recently, so I thought this could be them. Turns out, they're just scammy fraudsters.

I got a call from this number but when I checked my voicemail, there was nothing left so I have no clue what it was about.

I’m so fed up with this lady ringing me about some energy scam. You can spot her straight away from her accent and how she talks all casual like that. When I pick up, I just say hello and then stay quiet, letting her go on until she finally gives up and hangs up because I don’t answer her questions, especially that annoying “are you the homeowner?” she keeps asking over and over.

They rang my landline but as soon as the answering machine picked up, they just put the phone down.

A woman named Jo rang me, claimed to be an energy advisor. She got quite annoyed when I asked which company she was from. Started going on about how loft insulation made of fibreglass is dangerous to your health - bit sus if you ask me. I tried to keep her chatting for a while, but as soon as I mentioned I live in a flat without a loft, she ended the call straight away. Proper dodgy, that one. Shame on her for trying to pull a fast one.

It's so frustrating when these companies keep ringing but never leave a voicemail! If it was truly urgent, you'd think they'd bother to drop a message, right? Such a waste of time!

Some lady called me earlier, sounded kinda familiar, asking about my roof insulation. I told her to mind her own business and she just hung up without even a bye. Not sure how she expects to get to heaven doing stuff like that!
