Very aggressive call received 02/10/2023 claiming to be from our electricity supplier saying there had been an error on our bill, wanting us to confirm invoice details.
Scam - not to be trusted. They asked for the meter number from our latest electricity bill, but couldn't even provide the name of our current electricity supplier, then insisted they represent all of them! Then, when I refused and asked them to write to me or send a representative to the address they became threatening.
