This was an unsolicited call offering 24 hr security services for the home and for the rest of the village. There were three calls to our home in the space of 2.5 hours.

Called my landline, answering machine set to intercept, recorded background noise and indistinct voices for a minute or so, but no message. Legitimate callers invariably leave a message. Conclusion: this caller is illegitimate.
