Claimed to be from Sky offering an upgrade. When I said that I didn't think I had Sky they very quickly hung up without saying any more. An actual Sky caller would not do that.

I had someone claiming to be from Sky Broadband saying that they're upgrading their system and will send out a new router in the coming days but wasn't sure if it was genuine so didn't give any information. It could've been genuine but it could've already been a scam
