The call went straight to voicemail and no message was left. When I listened back there were just clicking sounds like a robocall system disconnecting.

I answered cautiously but nobody spoke on the line. It sounded like an automated call system preparing to deliver a sales message.

Caller claiming to be Jo the insulation adviser kept reading from a script and continued talking even when I tried to end the conversation.

reported 01273 033 487 as Dangerous

reported 01273 033 487 as Harassing
Asked if I was the homeowner and started to say she was an energy advisor, I hung up and blocked the number. Likely a nuisance call.

AI "Jo" and loft insulation scam. Posts online warn about this ongoing scam.

Scam call to TPS number. Same Australian AI Bot as before.

reported 01273 033 487 as Harassing
Claimed to be local energy advisor, hung up when asked for company. Many similar calls received.

reported 01273 033 487 as Harassing
Australian sounding caller introduced herself as a local energy adviser. When asked which company she worked for she ended the call straight away which made the whole thing seem very dodgy.

reported 01273 033 487 as Dangerous
Message pointed to other reports explaining the scam linked with this number and warning people to be cautious. Appears connected with ongoing nuisance calls targeting households.

reported 01273 033 487 as Dangerous
Woman claimed to be an energy adviser and asked whether I was the homeowner. When I asked which company she represented she immediately ended the call without giving any details, which made it feel very suspicious.

reported 01273 033 487 as Harassing
I did not answer this number but it keeps ringing repeatedly which is getting quite annoying. No voicemail left and no clear reason for the calls so it appears to be persistent nuisance dialling.

reported 01273 033 487 as Dangerous
Silent call where nobody spoke at first. It gave the impression they were waiting for a voice response. Some reports suggest calls like this may record voices for misuse or scam activity, so it is safer not to engage.

reported 01273 033 487 as Dangerous
Automated voice message claiming to represent an energy supplier working locally. It sounded completely robotic and provided no clear company details. Very likely part of a cold calling or scam operation targeting households.
