Claimed to be Carphone Warehouse, ignored me when I said that I wasn't interested, kept pestering me until I told them to get bent.

Claimed to be carphone warehouse. Strung them along for a while then said I was annoyed they thought I'd be daft enough to buy anything from some random stranger on the phone.
