Calls from a Government-related scams by the number +442038179716 - Expert Opinion

The calls, 02038179716, discovered by tellow users to be posing as government-related inquiries, were marked by dubious claims and a lack of verifiable credentials. Whether pretending to be from Ofgem or the Department for Economy NI, the callers attempted to engage with business owners or gather information under the guise of conducting surveys. However, their inability to provide proper identification or substantiate their claims exposed them as likely scammers. The persistence in following up despite initial rejections further fueled the suspicion that these were fraudulent attempts to exploit unsuspecting individuals.

    Wanted to carry out a survey for recruitment on NI businesses. I asked for government credentials to prove they are part of any ongoing studies and nothing could be provided. Seems to be a scam.

    Timewasters or scammers claiming to be a UK government agency running a survey. Declined offer of a 'reassurance email' proving they are who they say they are, why would I give a cold caller my email address? Hung up instead.
