Oddly enough, the wave of calls claiming a frozen National Insurance number and a looming arrest warrant is pure intimidation theatre. These recordings mimic official tones, but no legitimate agency ever asks you to press a button or reveal personal details over the phone. If you receive such a call, hang up immediately, do not provide any information, and block the number on your handset. Report the incident to Action Fraud and your mobile provider’s spam‑filtering service. Regularly review your NI status via the official government website, and educate vulnerable family members about these scams.
Repeated automated calls about a lawsuit have been received, highlighting the need for action against such nuisance calls.

An individual with an Indian/Pakistani accent contacted me, claiming to be Peter Wilson from HMRC, insisting on my national insurance number due to an arrest warrant for fraud. He was rather menacing, and I feel pity for those who might fall for such nonsense. The police were informed, and it has been documented.
As a rule, I dont answer calls from unknown numbers, if someone genuinly wants to contact me, they will leave a message, which is what happend, they left a voicemail about law enforcment and my NI number, I'm just greatful I didnt answer
This is undoubtedly a scam, following the same pattern as previously reported instances.
Similar to others, I received an automated call claiming my NI number was suspended and a warrant was issued for my arrest due to fraud. No name was used, and I definitely didn’t press 1—though I’m tempted to toy with them!

02034554575 contacted me twice within the same hour with identical messages stating my insurance number is canceled. It's intriguing since I've been with a significant company for years, so if true, it raises questions about where my NI contributions are going... obviously a SCAM.
