Expert Opinion
Robocallers often scarper the moment you mention recording, a dead giveaway they're up to no good. These calls from Manchester accents peddling fake lottery wins, like free lines or prizes, scream scam — genuine lotteries don't cold-call for that. One chap refused and got suspicious when they wouldn't use his account, spot on instinct. Block the number pronto and report to Action Fraud to help shut them down. Never share details; if it's real, they'll contact you properly. Stay vigilant, these pests prey on excitement, but hanging up keeps your info safe.

Seems to be a classic lottery scam.
Just received a ring from this number; I said "hello, this call is being recorded" and they hung up – definitely not a legit business, so I blocked them.
A voice with a Manchester accent claimed I’d won ten free lines from the National Lottery and wanted to add them to my account; I declined, though it might have been genuine.
