Scam trying to sell loft insulation.

reported 01296 408 738 as Harassing
They asked for my late wife and claimed to be from a company about loft insulation or updates. I told them repeatedly I'm not interested but they still kept calling. So frustrating!

This number kept ringing repeatedly and when the call was answered they disconnected straight away. Looks like nuisance calling so I have blocked it now.

Phone showed this number as suspected spam. Several calls came through within a short period which makes it feel like an automated spam dialler.

Caller claimed to be from a loft inspection service in Aylesbury. They keep calling over and over about checking insulation in the property. This type of unsolicited approach feels very suspicious and looks like a scam operation trying to gain access to homes.

reported 01296 408 738 as Dangerous
Phone flagged this number as suspected spam and it kept ringing my mobile several times. Eventually I blocked the number because it looked like a scam caller.

reported 01296 408 738 as Harassing
This number keeps calling again and again within a short gap between attempts. Very annoying behaviour so the number is now blocked.
