Had missed call, so when called this number a Indian lady (scammer) claiming to be from "UK energy business" looking after electricity, gas and card terminal machines. She started asking about my current card machine company. Instantly knew she as asking for sensitive information which was certainly a scam. Went on to say they could save us on any outstanding balances, I then "played along" and she said they could save us on 30% off prices. When I refused to give her info, she then was going to transfer me to "automated service" and before she transferred my call she was getting rude so hang up and blocked the number. Please be careful and don't give out any info including your name or company details.
