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?
