Phone scam from "Health Department"

Just had a phone call and they knew my name - an asian voice saying they were from the Health Department and conducting a short survey for feedback on my views and my health worries.
I said I didnt believe them and the phone was slammed down.
I have googled the number and found someone saying they answered a lot of personal questions and was then offered some tablets "not available in the shops" for £15. pmsl.
SO, be aware people.

I hate calls like that. Blocked numbers are a nightmare - I always ask where they got my number as I know it's not on any mailing lists, it's never been given out to anyone capable of selling it on!0
