Caller said I had reported a housing issue, which was completely wrong. They seemed more interested in getting details than explaining who they were.

Housing Repairs Scam
I got a call from 020 4641 1487 - very close to the 1481 number quotrd here. I didn't answer it.
This caller rang and asked if I had mould or damp in my property.
Came up as a call from London and as suspected spam. I did not answer.
Missed the call
Didnt answer
I didn’t answer it came up suspected scam. Im in north wales and with it being a London number it was a big nope. Reading previous feedback I am concerned as I reported a plumbing housing repair this morning so how do they have my information?
Spam- Hung up when I asked for a subject access request as I definitely have not reported damp or mould 👍
Received call today 4 June, same message as other recipients
Stated they were calling about a reported damage to the house, I stated I hadn’t reported anything and I don’t own a home and they then hung up - definitely scam.
Uses your voice to activate pre recorded questions saying that they r ringing about a housing repair I requested, & is there any damp, mould, or cracks…. I hung up then.
Asking regarding damp and mould. But do not own a home nor am I with a housing provider
something about me reporting damp and mold in my house, without me owning a house.
Call guard reported they said: "Hello, how are you doing today? You okay?" The guard asks for their name, company and the nature of their call. The caller did not answer any of those questions. Flagging as Spam.
