"Cold call - a woman with a strong Asian accent was asking me about our foam loft insulation (which we don't have!). She went on for some time, and I didn't understand most of what she said. Then, she put the phone down."

"Loft insulation scam"
"I didn't pick up the original call! But I called back, a pushy woman (got the impression she was reading from a script) told me I had a quote for glass fibre loft insulation. I said I hadn’t, and she insisted I had. My number is private ex-directory, so she didn't know who I was, then the call ended. I'm strongly suspecting it's either a scam or aggressive spam selling loft insulation."
