flag UK warns against cheap, unsafe 'energy-saving' plugs sold online or by cold calls.

flag UK households are being warned against 'energy-saving plugs' sold online or via cold calls, as these devices often fail to reduce bills and may pose fire risks due to poor quality or faulty wiring. flag Scammers use fake reviews and false endorsements to promote them, with many consumers losing money or receiving unsafe products. flag Authorities stress that real energy savings come from insulation, efficient appliances, and smart thermostats—not unverified plug-in gadgets. flag These devices, often under £10, are typically ineffective and not sold by reputable retailers, signaling potential fraud.
