Have been called two days running by a foreign gentleman(sarcasm). Asked to speak to me by name, I wouldn’t confirm who I was and asked who he was but wouldn’t reply just kept saying he wanted to speak to me. On the first day he put the phone down today however when I asked who he was he became quite aggressive and said his name was Ivor Smith. I quite unpolitely told him not to call me again and blocked the number! BEWARE!

They called me on a slightly different number yesterday, said my maiden name, told them that wasn’t my name and hung up, got the same call today asked for my maiden name, told them again, they got the wrong number, no one by that name here
Silent call for a bit. Asked about my home address. I said politely I'm not going to answer any question. They hung up. Legit companies aren't rude or gi straight I with asking for your address.
Seems to be a phishing scam as they asked for confirmation of my name and old address anyone who gets these calls i would definitely recommend reporting them to the FCA who can log the scam and make sure other people are aware too. I had to call FCA yesterday due to some pretending to be them. Or report any case like this to action fraud if they have obtained any personal details.
Voicemail left but just silent, then some background noise and they hung up. Blocked caller
Called and asked for confirmation of an old address as my current address. Refused to say purpose of the call, even though I asked twice. Hung up when I told them it was an old address. BEWARE as this bears all the hallmark of phishing or scammers.
i answered it and no one on the other end
