| 1329293 | 2013-02-21 03:06:00 | Just had a guy (of asian persuasion) call, offering me a discount on my landline. He was very confused when I told him I didn't have a landline but used voip. He did not know what that was, and I could not be bothered explaining, so just hung up. Am I right in thinking that this is some type of scam going around? LL |

| 1329297 | 2013-02-21 05:21:00 | hmmm........ he did not actually say who he was calling on behalf of. So I don't think it was Telecom, and he pronounced my surname incorrectly like he didn't understand English very well. LL |
