Expert Opinion
Earlier today, a call from +441420358772 left a vague pitch about car finance or investments before hanging up when you asked how they got your details. The pattern matches a classic scam – no clear company name, aggressive sales tactics and an unfamiliar foreign accent. Block the number on your handset and add it to the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) list. Report the incident to Action Fraud and consider a reputable call‑blocking app for future protection. Never share personal or financial information with unsolicited callers, and if a caller claims to be a regulator or police, hang up and verify independently.

Keine Ahnung, was das bedeutet
The line was answered with two greetings, background chatter suggested a call centre, and the connection lag likely caused the caller to hang up before hearing me.
