The number +44174407161 appears to be a hotbed of scam calls, primarily focusing on home appliance insurance. Callers often claim to offer substantial discounts, like 40%, on insurance for appliances like washing machines and fridges, even when the recipient doesn't have such cover. The calls are typically from a call centre with a noisy background, and the callers often have an Asian accent. They may also try to verify personal details, which can be a red flag. Some users reported the number even calling despite being on the TPS (Telephone Preference Service) register. If you receive such a call, it’s best to hang up immediately and block the number. Don’t engage or provide any personal information, as these calls are designed to trick you into revealing sensitive data.
