Call was intercepted by Google - who asked for details before putting the call thru whereupon the caller promptly hung up (G left a report of the interaction - the first time this has ever happened). All the hallmarks of a scam/fraud call and I wouldn't have answered anyway had G not intervened as I do not answer unrecognised numbers

They called and hung up as soon as I answered. They called within 30 minutes of another scam call regarding car finance.
Message saying missed call when I didn't actually miss any call
Asked about a finance claim I have on a previous car. They had my name and correct car details. But I never had finance on this car!? They then asked if I had finance on any other car…. When I asked why is that relevant they said sorry I must have the wrong number and ended the call ( they had my correct car details)!
