Didn’t pick up and hung up when the voicemail started!
Talks non-stop. At one point I replied with "peanut butter sandwich" but got no answer. I'm part of TPS, but when I told them, the obviously artificial incompetence didn't respond.
A computer voice phoned my TPS number and asked "Hello, can you hear me?". I didn't speak and they ended the call.
Number 01312312301 rang my TPS-checked home phone at 9.15 this morning, maybe a 65 % scam
