I had a guy cold call yesterday in Park Farm stating that he was from ADT Security and that I was possibly entitled to a free Security system and wanted to take 2 mins of my time to take some details. Thank god I said I wasn’t interested, but I did tell him that the red box at the top of the house that looked like an alarm was fake !!!! Worried a bit now. He was Irish and his mate he said was from Australia !!!
