A man with an Indian accent said he was from Octopus Energy and they had a technical fault and so were checking my supply number was correct, I wouldn't give them it and so asked them to provide it and I would confirm, which they did. They then asked for further information which I would not give, and asked them for a number to call back.
They got pushy and when I wouldn't concede - hung up.

Scams requesting your MPAN (Meter Point Administration Number) are designed to steal personal information or trick you into switching energy suppliers without consent. Fraudsters often pose as energy suppliers or Ofgem, using tactics like offering fake discounts, checking for fake meter faults, or promising to lower bills. Never provide your MPAN or bank details to unexpected callers.

They try getting you to confirm an MPAN NUMBER for electricity BY TELLING YOU TO ACCESS AN INVOICE.
DO NOT GIVE IT TO THEM THEY WILL SWAP YOUR CONTRACT OVER TO ANOTHER SUPPLIER!
