Expert Opinion

Calls claiming to be from the benefits department often sound official, but they’re usually a ruse to harvest personal details. If the caller asks for your name, address, bank or insurance information, hang up straight away and do not share anything. Verify any claim by contacting the genuine agency using a trusted number, not the one they provide. Use built‑in call blocking features or a reputable third‑party app to stop repeat rings. Report the number to Action Fraud or your phone provider, and educate friends and family so they recognise the same script.
