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.
No public phone number
