Hung up after I said "Hello", it looks like they'll only talk to 'vulnerable' sounding people. Scammers.

Guy with a foreign accent said he was from, I think, Lifestyle UK. I got him to repeat the name so I could understand him then he hung up.

Had correct name but address details they gave were 12 years out of date. Asked for my current address, I refused so they hung up.

They wait to hear your voice and then decide if you are a suitable victim. If you are not they hang up.
