Unknown Caller

Rang me and as usual I didn't pickup as number unknown. They tried talking to the answer machine using my name but I ignored.

Apparently from BT calling about hackers using my broadband. Got highly offended when I suggested that I couldn't know they were from BT. I hung up and they called again to call me a horrible horrible woman.
