This number called yesterday and again today on the landline, ringing continuously. I didn’t answer. The previous call was from a very English lady apologising and mentioning solar energy, which I ended as a potential scam.
Persistent Scam Number Hits Again - +44 28 8248 0140 (028 8248 0140)

専門家の見解
Picture this: your phone buzzes with an unsolicited call from an unknown number, and it's pushing dubious energy deals or loft insulation that sounds too good to be true. Reports consistently flag this as a persistent scam operation, with callers using silence, apologies, or fake advisor names to hook you in. They've switched digits slightly to dodge blocks and hit at inconvenient times, like early mornings for vulnerable folks. Hang up immediately if you suspect foul play—don't engage, as it validates your number. Block the number and report to authorities like the FCC to curb these nuisances. Enable call screening on your device for extra protection, and consider apps that flag spam in real-time.

Another scam call, ringing four times in two hours. The number has been blocked.
The caller introduced himself as Chris, our local energy advisor, but I recognised it as a scam, having received similar calls from related numbers, so I told him not to call again
The number had to be blocked again after it managed to get through despite previous attempts to stop it.
They called me on my landline, saying we were eligibale for solar panels, but I suspected a scam, so I hung up, and I'm not going to answer it again
This number has been blocked following a suspicious call attempting to sell loft insulation
They call, let it ring three times, and then hang up. It’s becoming absurd.
Picked up, and they hung up instantly, so they covered the call cost. It’s undoubtedly a New Year, New Scam season. They didn’t and won’t call back; it’s a scam and now blocked.
The caller was talking about loft insulation, but it was clear that it was a nonsensical scam
Received a call from 02882480140. Let it go to the answer machine; no message left. Now blocked after checking online.
They called yesterday but left no voicemail, then called again today. Later, the number changed by one digit in another call after I blocked the previous one. It's a scam using deceptive tactics!
At a very early hour, I was subjected to an unsolicited call regarding energy sales, which was particularly inconvenient given my disability.
this is a scam
The call was not answered
Upon recieving the call, I picked up straight away, but recieved no responce when I greeted them, I beleive it was a call centre that hung up on me.
