Expert Opinion
Be wary of unsolicited calls like these, which often mask fraudulent intent. Reports highlight persistent tactics from callers posing as 'Homecare' or similar, pushing fake TV or appliance insurance policies and demanding payment details. They grow aggressive if challenged, repeatedly ringing back or shouting to pressure you. Never share personal or financial info over the phone with unknowns. Instead, hang up immediately, block the number, and report to Action Fraud. Verify any legitimate claims directly through official channels, not via the caller. Staying vigilant helps avoid these scam pitfalls and protects your details.

Spouse answered an unsolicited call... Jerry said it was re kitchen cover we'd axed, demanding a penalty! Told him we'd never signed up and hung up!
Indeed, they called about my TV, claiming the final payment was done and they wanted to give a reward. I recognised it as a con since we don't pay that way. They said they only needed my card info to verify identity. Sure!
The caller claimed to be from Homecare. She wanted to speak to me, but I told her she wasn't there. She mentioned a payment scheduled from her account today. When I questioned which payment, she refused to elaborate citing data protection. She inquired about the ideal time to ring again. I instructed her not to call back and hung up.
