How scams that copy charities and advice services work
If a caller asks for a donation, you can hang up and give through the charity’s own website instead. If a caller asks for a code sent to your phone or access to your computer, hang up.
Ofcom says scammers can fake the number that appears on your phone, which is called spoofing, and that they imitate UK numbers to look like a trusted person or organisation. Knowing details about you does not make a caller genuine.
This could still be a scam call
Criminals can make their number look like a genuine one (this is called spoofing). If someone calls from this number and asks for money, bank details, a code or passwords, hang up. Then call Independent Age back on a number you've found yourself, such as the one on their own website or on a letter or bill from them.
