I would personally ring up and explain that you were angry that this man was intimadated in his own home (being told he would lose his benefits if he didn't answer) and as a blind man actually had no idea who this person was as he could not verify her identity. It could have been anyone come in from the street and said all this (although I don't see why they would!). Everyone has read reports of the vulnerable being attacked in their own home, I should think that an authority that pays someone disability benefits should know what their problem is and make appropriate provisions for home visits, regardless of what they are 'suspected of'.0

Don't people on high rate DLA and income support get extra if noone claims carers allowance for them AND they live on their own (so no family member helping etc) - could it be that they are trying to figure out?0
