Scam callers

I keep getting a call off a number that says it's sky but asks me for my full name and address and last 2 numbers of my account number. The phone number is [Removed], could someone please confirm this is a scam number? They call me everyday.

Moderator notes: Removed phone number

Even if the number was a genuine Sky number they can easily be spoofed. It's probably a scam.

However, call the official number from Sky's help page if you want to confirm with Sky whether there's any need to speak to you.

If the call was from Sky then they should ask you for a telephone password so did they do this ?

Did the caller offer to reduce your cost by giving you a discount - say 40%? If yes then it's a scam.
