Claimed to be a local energy adviser but the number does not match the area. Very likely a scam attempt trying to sound official.

SPAM CALL WITH DEAD AIR WHEN ANSWERED. KEEPS HAPPENING AND VERY ANNOYING.

reported 01228 248 076 as Harassing
Long silence after answering and then an automated goodbye message. Clearly not a genuine call.

reported 01228 248 076 as Harassing
Unsolicited call from someone claiming to be an energy adviser. I told them I was not interested and ended the call straight away.

reported 01228 248 076 as Dangerous
These energy adviser calls are often linked to the well known loft insulation scam. There are plenty of warnings online about how they operate. They try to gain trust before pushing unnecessary work.

Unsolicited calls.
