we had a couple of phone calls ,yesterday from number 02037693592 on answering ,the call dropped out the second time someone said "could you take a call?" i put the phone down.it seems like a scam involving paying for an international call.a couple of our neighbours have had similar calls from the same number(which is a "spoofed" one)

If you put that number into Google it comes up with this 

"acting as a broker trying to get details of peoples electricity supplies so they can then transfer the supply to a new provider (so they receive commission) our customer was told to email a gmail account with his bank details. number is now unavailable. DO NOT GIVE ANY DETAILS TO THESE PEOPLE"
