Expert Opinion

Check the caller’s ID before sharing any personal data. When a number you don’t recognise claims to be Octopus Energy, ask for an official reference number and perform verification on the company’s website or by calling the known 0808 contact line. Do not disclose address, account numbers or payment details on an unsolicited call, even if the voice sounds urgent or mentions a ‘debt’ situation. Record the time, number and exact wording, then report the incident to the Information Commissioner’s Office and to Octopus Energy’s fraud team. Using call‑blocking tools and regularly reviewing your account settings further reduces the risk of future scams.

441527362615 Unknown Octopus

No answer was given and no voicemail was left. If it had been Octopus, they would have left a message; I've been a customer for years and they rarely call. Whenever I receive an unsolicited call I reply, “Thanks, I’ll contact you using the number I already have.” Scam calls are overwhelming, and the earlier messages in this thread clearly read like they were written by the scammers.

Check the review for 01527 362615 regarding a Gov Court case scam – calls from that number and 0208/0204 coincide with hacks, insurance fraud, identity theft, medical record errors, and various government frauds, so stay alert, mate.

441527362615 Unknown

I was experiencing phone and internet hacking when the call arrived. The scammers direct victims to report these numbers as scams to mask a corrupt family‑run “group” that includes police contacts, 101/999 staff, AF, NCA, SFO, public service professionals, GPs, journalists, court personnel and even judges exploiting neighbours. I urge anyone to check whether they hold 3‑5 property title deeds, their own and parents' names, plus two gateway numbers, as a batch of government‑related crime scams is being registered without consent, using stolen identities for HMRC tax fraud, tribunal cases, NHS liabilities and DWP disability claims. Then raise the alarm!

They pretended to be from Octopus Energy and asked to verify my details. I refused, stating I wouldn't share information on a cold call, yet they insisted it wasn't cold.
