Automated chatbot call that kept going no matter what I said. I replied with single word answers and it would not stop. Clearly not a real person. Now blocked.

Let the call go to answerphone but no message was left. Looks like another nuisance caller.

Caller claimed to be a local energy adviser but the location did not match the number. Started talking about home related matters which felt like a setup.

Energy adviser scam discussing insulation and damp problems. Interaction felt very limited like a bot rather than a real person. These types of calls are becoming more advanced and harder to spot at first, but the pattern is clear once you engage. Avoid responding.

Answered and first thing they said was can you hear me. This is a known scam tactic trying to get a yes response. Best not to engage.

Call appeared to be from a UK number but was actually routed through overseas VOIP services. This is commonly used to disguise the true origin of scam calls. No genuine reason for this behaviour so it is clearly suspicious.
