Just had a call asking for personal details,Indian accents guy was pretending he is from housing association
Sounded like an Indian call centre, claimed to be calling from a government energy scheme, which I Googled mid call and couldn't find, most likely a scam.
Automatically assumed I'm housing association. Said about damage to house and landlord not doing anything. All not true yet I agreed to see where this would lead. Then asking for email address and what's app. As I have neither, or so I lead her to believe. She hung up. What is the purpose of this I'm not sure
Home insulation cold call.
