My mother recently took a phone call from an organisation claiming to enable a system to prevent nuisance calls.
They also offered to discuss fuel bills etc but needed to make an appointment to visit.
After googling the number, I discovered they are a financial advisory scheme. Needless to say I've contacted them to block them.
I just wanted readers to realise that these may become more common as a way of entry to selling rather than over the phone and to make vulnerable elderly neighbours aware.
Phone number 0845 051 0429. Thank you.
