Last night someone called about SWMBO's Clio that's up for sale in Autotrader.
The conversation went something like this:
Caller: Hi I'm calling about the Clio in Autotrader Me: Yes? Caller: When can come and have a look at it? Me: Tomorrow lunchtime, or maybe the weekend? Caller: How about Sunday? Me: Sunday's fine. Caller: What's your address Me: Caller: I'll call you when I set off then, what's your name Me: Provides name Caller: Repeats name Me: Yes. What's your name? Caller: Errr, Mark Me: Well, see you on Sunday then, Mark Caller: Thanks, bye
I felt well suspicious about the call and did almost as soon as the conversation started. Wish I hadn't provided the address now, instead offering to tell him when he called back to say he was setting off.
It didn't help that he had a thick scouse accent (I know there are scouse accents and there are scouse accents and his sounded like it was deep out of scumbag scallyville).
It might be nothing and I might be paranoid but has anybody had or heard of dodginess following a call like that?
It's just that I had a terrible gut feeling during and after the call. The feeling lasted all evening. SWMBO who was sitting beside me also felt weird about it and she was on another call at the time!
