Expert Opinion
Picture this: your phone rings with a familiar number, and suddenly you're embroiled in a tense exchange about your energy meter. These calls from this source mimic legitimate utility providers like Octopus Energy, Scottish Power, or British Gas, but they're outright frauds aiming to extract personal details or push fake services. Reports highlight aggressive tactics, including abuse and persistent ring-backs when challenged. Stay vigilant—never share meter readings, account info, or verification details over unsolicited calls. Hang up immediately and report to Action Fraud or your provider. Blocking the number helps, but verify any concerns directly through official channels to sidestep these nuisances safely.
