Called this afternoon. First time. Said his name was Peter and he had done some work for a neighbour about 9 years ago and he had some good news for us. He has gone independent and because he's had such a good response he was offering selected clients a 30% discount. There was a lot of background noise as though he was in a call center. Hung up. Blacklisted number.
