Obvious AI synthetic female voice scam call asking fake questions before the home insulation sales pitch. I spent a little while giving ridiculous answers before hanging up. Q: what are your windows made of? A: Brick. Q: What age group are you in? A: I haven't been born yet. Q: How long have you lived in your property? A: 3657 years, 5 months, 13 seconds. To which the AI responded "great!" or similar. Utter nonsense.

They hung up on answer phone, immedately.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Started with "can you hear me" before moving onto window sales talk. Clearly not genuine.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Hard to understand why this number is still operating after so many complaints. More reports probably need submitting through official scam reporting systems before action is taken.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
I get calls like this nearly every day. Obviously using AI. Wish I could find the company owners so I could "inconvience" and "harass" them and their family!
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
another so-called energy adviser for 'my area' - however when questioned could not tell me which area she was phoning !! - probably because it is not on their script !
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Had this scam call several times from "Jane" the so-called local energy adviser. Not trusted
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
AI automated voice repeating "hello can you hear me alright" several times before disconnecting.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
Automated voice asking if I could hear them. I stayed silent and the line disconnected.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Automated voice calling itself Jane saying she was a local energy adviser. Asked several scripted questions before I disconnected the call.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Unsolicited calls.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
Talking about energy companies, roofing and windows. Unwanted sales type call.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Caller warning style message pushing scare tactics about saying yes on calls and AI recordings. Very suspicious behaviour.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Multiple similar calls reached my answerphone and none left a message. Clearly connected nuisance callers pretending to be local energy advisers.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Female caller asked if I could hear her and continued talking after I replied negatively. I ended the call immediately.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
Another unwanted call from a so called local energy adviser named Jane. I ended the conversation immediately.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
Female voice asked if I could hear her then disconnected when questioned.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Called the landline and left no message at all. Appears suspicious and possibly linked to scam activity.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Local energy team scam call with warnings about AI voice fraud. Best to hang up immediately.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
AI nonsense about energy. Gave her a load of fictitious answers and blocked using 1572, though that may not work as scammers like this generate a fake telephone number which they regularly change.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Called several times now and I have simply hung up on them. Have been calling every few days for several weeks now.
Re-registered with TPS but I doubt that this will stop this lot.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
Unsolicited female call advising of subsidies new windows, loft insulation, new boiler. Asked for age bracket and that someone would be in our area and would call to measure up - without knowing where I was! Usual patter, - could have been clever A.I. I said send email, but line went silent.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Fake energy advisor recording using a female voice. Waits for you to respond before continuing. Definite scam call.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Said they were from a doors and windows company but nothing matched when I searched online. Very doubtful this was genuine.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
Started with the usual "hello can you hear me" introduction before pretending to be Jane from the Energy Care Team. Sounded completely automated.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Landline call screening intercepted this caller. Any call beginning with "can you hear me" should be treated as dangerous.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
Opened with the usual "hello can you hear me okay" line. Same organisation using different numbers again.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
AI sounding male voice asked whether I could hear him clearly. Avoid answering questions from this caller as it sounded scripted and suspicious from the beginning.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
Looks like a scam setup. As soon as the call connected they disconnected again.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Claimed to be selling windows and doors using what sounded like an AI generated voice. Opened with the familiar "can you hear me" line. Avoid.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
Came up as a scam suspect on my phone and sounded like an AI bot. Blocked immediately.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Scam marketing operation using spoofed caller IDs to avoid blocking systems. Clearly not linked to any legitimate UK business and keeps rotating through fake numbers.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Automated message asking if windows and doors were over ten years old and claiming eligibility for grants. Obvious scam call.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
Another energy saving related call from the same people. Hung up immediately after hearing the introduction.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
THIS IS AN AI SCAM CALL AND SHOULD BE BLOCKED COMPLETELY.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
No voicemail left and appears to be another scam caller based on reports online.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Woman asked if I could hear her and appeared to be fishing for a yes response. Hung up and blocked the number.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Reports below explain this appears connected to AI voice cloning scams where callers try to make you say yes. Very concerning behaviour.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Female voice repeatedly asked if I could hear her properly. I stayed silent and hung up because it sounded suspicious.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
now blocked left no message. looks like its a spam, Ai energy knob ,
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
100% a scam. I knew it would be, so I picked up the phone and did not say anything - not even 'Hello'. A male voice (possibly a recording) then said 'Can you hear me OK?'. That is absolutely a sign of a scam. Don't talk to these people. BT does nothing to stop them.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
AI bot trying to sell double glazing
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Unknown number so I ignored it. After checking reviews online it appears linked with spam activity and nuisance calls.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
Second suspicious call within days and no voicemail left either time. My landline rarely receives legitimate calls now.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
DO NOT SPEAK TO THESE CALLERS. They are trying to record voices for AI cloning scams and trick people into saying yes during the conversation.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
AI bot pretending to be from a local energy supplier and trying to collect personal details about my property. Extremely suspicious and concerning behaviour.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
Another call from someone claiming to be my local energy supplier despite repeated requests to stop contacting me.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
Voice sounded robotic and artificial, almost like AI generated speech. The caller tried to get me to confirm my address details before I had provided any information. Ended the call as it felt like a phishing scam.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
COMPUTERISED JANE DID NOT LISTEN TO A WORD I SAID JUST EXTRACTING INFORMATION -HOPE MY INFO GOES WELL IN THEIR SEVAY

AI Jane, with long pauses between questions, asking if I can hear her, trying to get information about my property.

Usual “can you hear me”. I stayed quiet and message was repeated twice more. I asked who was calling of course no answer.

Automated style sales pitch about home improvements including solar and double glazing with follow up contact suggested.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
Ignored me when I ask questions, such as "What is me name?". I gave stupid and ridiculous answers, but she kept coming with more, so I assume a recording.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Harassing
I've recently had a run of calls from these people, sometimes one a day, calling from various numbers.
User reported 0131 381 7856 as Dangerous
