Received a phone call from someone purporting to represent the 118 business directory service. They accurately stated our company name along with several other facts, then inquired about an email address or site, neither of which we possess. The conversation avoided any suggestive queries, so I didn't sense danger, though I remained vigilant and responded only briefly. The person wasn't aggressive, yet I stayed on guard as usual.
