Caller said he was Alex from Later Living and talked about something linked to BBC news about older people. Felt totally scripted like they were trying to worry people into giving details.

Some sort of AI-sounding caller. Really fed up with these kinds of calls because they just keep coming no matter what you do.

reported 01697 528 357 as Harassing
They rang, I didn’t answer and my mobile flagged it as possible spam. Blocked it without thinking twice.

reported 01697 528 357 as Dangerous
I answered using a silly voice and they hung up straight away. Pretty obvious they were up to no good.

Called and didn't leave a message. Called back and it was a fake energy department.

reported 01697 528 357 as Harassing
Recorded message: "If you're intrested in commercial offers call back." Pointless blocking as they change their displayed number every time they call.

Asked about my energy supplier then hung up.
