Daughter took a call for us the other day - gent sounding distinctly Asian (or maybe Nigerian, she's not too hot on accents yet) but volunteering a name that was more British than British, and wanting to buy our property; when told it wasn't for sale, he quickly said "OK, I would like to rent it". She asked for his phone number so that I could call him back, but he rang off.
The next evening someone else called, giving the same spiel. Since we were recently relieved of BP934 via a PayPal scam, later reimbursed, perhaps our email address is being circulated around the same internet caf......
Has anyone else been phoned in this way?
Are they getting bolder?

Nostalgia isn't what it used to be
This should really be a new topic, but the 'new topic' facility won't open for me, so I'm putting it here.
