reported 01206 598 983 as Harassing
Automated bot call that completely ignored TPS registration. Waste of time and clearly not a real person.

reported 01206 598 983 as Dangerous
Caller said he was an energy adviser working locally but ignored questions about call preference services and kept talking. Very pushy and suspicious behaviour.

Call connected then ended quickly. Previously linked to energy related cold calls despite TPS registration, suggesting nuisance activity.

reported 01206 598 983 as Harassing
Caller said they were from a local insulation company but could not confirm any real details. Just kept talking through a scripted message without answering questions.

reported 01206 598 983 as Dangerous
Very convincing automated call about loft insulation using a natural sounding voice that reacts to responses. Designed to feel like a real conversation which makes it particularly deceptive.

reported 01206 598 983 as Harassing
Another silent call from this number. No interaction at all which makes it suspicious.

reported 01206 598 983 as Harassing
Missed call that was automatically blocked. Based on other reports, likely another spam attempt.
