Thanks for the advice - it's a scam

Received a voicemail from Lisa at Sky Blue Education - a national procurement service for schools. Left a message about a too-good-to-be-true business coaching opportunity for my postcode area. Searched around on the internet and it's a scam asking for payment, beware.

I too got call from Lisa at Sky Blue Education saying their researchers had identified me as potential leadership coach for Scotland based academy. Suspicious post call as she also asked if I had experience in schools - surely basic research would clarify that? Looking at Companies House and Google search revealed a procurement company which charges for entries in their directory. Plus several name changes in recent years- never a good sign. I get my work through recommendation so don’t need a directory. Wouldn’t touch them with barge pole.

They leave a trail around the internet as scammers and have changed their name often, and although stated as a registered company, it is NOT registered on Companies House.

Like other callers, fairly certain this is a scam. "To good to be true" was our initial thought and a quick google search confirmed this. Very convincing, so be aware!

Received voicemail from Lisa from Sky Blue Education - a national procurement service for private academy schools suggesting I call back in order to gain business through coaching of a large number of schools in the RM11 area who are signed up to them. Googled them - Looks like a scam. See article @ https://michaels.me.uk/educational-hub-scam/

Please press one to accept this call. Why would I when I don't know who it's from or what it is about. Must be a premium number scam or similar? Maybe fishing for in-use numbers for telemarketing?
