Cold call claiming to be about life insurance cover. Opened the call by using an assumptive "am i speaking to xxxx xxxx?" but the forename they provided was that of my son who is a minor and attends primary school (!?). I challenged them on this and they eventually hung up. Concerns me that they have somehow come by info that links my phone number with the name of one of my kids.

Instinctively I thought this was some sort of company ringing and then when I answered it was an Asian woman asking me if I have Life insurance. When I told her I wasn't interested she put the phone down so its obvious its a scam. How do we report the number?

Apparently a review on life insurance from an Asian women called Lisa, wasn’t interested plus not sure it was legit so finished the call!!

Called my mobile, but it was not within signal range so I called back on landline - rang twice then dropped. Worrying, as the only person I know with a Carlisle code is in her 80s, and I thought it might be bad news. In fact it's a relief to see the comments here and realise it was only a spam call!

Not known to me so I ignored. No answer left so I assume spam or worse
