Caller said he was from Home Care Services re a TV I had supposedly bought 2 years ago tomorrow. He said he had my signed paperwork before him and payment details, then he said info obtained from me over the phone. I knew I hadn't bought any TV, so I said it was a scam and hung up. He phoned me again, very persistent. I asked to speak to supervisor. They didn't even have my proper address. I didn't correct him and again said this was a scam. He hung up on me. Be careful. They are really persistent.

A man, who knew my name and address, rang on my landline about my TV(?). When I said that it must be a scam, he told me I had insulted him and so I asked him about my TV. He immediately cut off.
Caller asked to speak to Director, regarding a payment being taken from his account. I believe this is a scam caller.
