Telephone law ?

[86JR]

After an interesting call this morning by a man of foriegn sounding descent who then started calling me a "white devil" and that he knew where i lived and would be seeing me soon, im wondering what to do ?

it was partly my fault as i asked him to "**** off" however if you see from my point of view you can see why i get frustrated :

I get a call from this same guy every day asking me to confirm my DOB, bank account details, he claims hes from some alphabet soup government sponsored debt info company, if i hang up he rings me back etc. He claims to be from "TSA" or "CSA" and "its all official government stuff"

So i do a 1471 and caller not listed... i dont want to worry my parents over this so i cant get the number off the ISP (talktalk) as i dont pay the bill...

Have i got any concern to go to my local police station about it ?

I dont want to be racist but he sounds indian if thats any help.

Has anyone had calls like this before ?

Is this anything to do with your heavily overdrawn bank account?

Take out a contract with another LR company. Line gets ceased, cancel new order. Voila!

If you send me your bank details via email in trust then I'll stop ringing.

Call the Nuisance Call Bureau on 0800 661 441.

Grow a pair and tell him to come round if he knew where you lived.. *stands back and opens the popcorn*

I'd go the police straight away, this sounds very serious.

I asked him where he was based so i could go and see him first, that shut him up, there was literally 3 seconds of silence.

Haha I'm sure your incredibly scary phonefu threatening voice scared him.

He was getting his mac10

Nice. Provocation is always a good way to get ones enemy to show his hand, as Sun Tzu once said "Provoke him, to know his patterns of movement."

Personally, If it was me I'd just have fun with him. Its probably some 20 year old turd in Birmingham.

Yeah, i even dropped my voice tone a bit for dramatic effect. I bet all the hairs on the back of his head stood on end. Its most likely that he is standing on the Severn Bridge, contemplating and shaking with ultimate terror.

Rather jump off that bridge than Clifton Suspension bridge.

Just give him your bank details, as you've no money in there anyway and apparently you just ignore any communication from your bank anyway, so even if they chase you up it won't be a problem.
