Claimed to be from Sky surveying satisfaction with Sky TV. I do not have Sky TV. I did manage an account for an elderly relative who died several years ago - so either a poorly maintained customer list or a scammer using an old stolen set of data. Poor accent suggesting Indian call centre spoofing of phone number.

Just silence for 10 seconds, then they put it down. Most likely a scam.

somehow bypassed “ask reason for calling” and left no voicemail. suspicious and almost certainly a spam/scam call.
