Scam/Fraud
21 Nov 2025
Medical alert pendant scam. Received phone call from 01417378701, Lady who did not sound English or Scottish knew my name. I asked what the call was regarding. She advised I qualified for a free medical pendant for emergencies. She said that if used I would receive attention from their medical team. I asked who were their medical team to see if I could get more information from her, i.e. company etc. After a couple of requests she hung up. This is the 2nd call I have had from this lady. Obvious scam but wondering where they obtain my details from.
