Like a wolf in sheep's clothing, this number masquerades as a legitimate energy firm but raises red flags from the off. Comments highlight claims of being from SSE for energy surveys amid price caps, yet SSE has exited the domestic market, making it a dead giveaway for a scam. The AI-like voice adds to the suspicion, and multiple reports flag similar numbers ending in 885 or 886 as nuisances. Hang up immediately if they ring—never share details. Block the lot, report to Action Fraud, and verify any energy queries directly with your supplier via official channels. Staying vigilant keeps your wallet safe from these dodgy operators.
I've gotten several calls from this number and its variants ending in 86 and 85. I never answer, and a quick search shows negative feedback for the other two.
They said they were from SSE offering an energy survey tied to price caps – but SSE don’t sell domestic energy any more, so I raised the alarm. Clearly an AI. Do NOT trust this number, mate.
