Keeps calling my mum. Says they are an energy company. Have blocked the number so they can’t call back again.

I received a call from someone claiming to be my local energy supplier. They seemed a bit off, and I thought if they were a legitimate company, I should be able to find them online easily. After doing a quick search, I couldn't find any trace of the company they mentioned. It made me feel uneasy, so I decided not to engage any further. I definitely felt it was best to be cautious and not share any personal information.
