So today wierd things been going on with my mobile.

I recieved a text this morning,opened up the message and it said-

Jeevan,thanks for your loan enquiry with CFD.We need a few more details before we can submit to lenders.
please call us free on.....

So ignored it...

Then just got a phone call,an Indian lady on the other end said..

her -Hello can i speak to Mr..."Some indian name",
Me-i think you have the wrong number
her oh i appoligise il remove your number from our records.
me-who is this please...how you get my number
her-puts phone down.

What you reckon?...i dont give out my number to just anyone,I hope i dont start getting scam calls.

Just Ignore or be extremely rude to them next time, and check your bank account for any unauthorised payments,

Might be the same people having made a genuine mistake. Or same people fishing for business. Either way ignore!

It was a loan application. I don't see how it can result in unauthorised payments.
I'd suspect ID fraud, but as the name was different, I think it is not the case. A mistyped digit in the mobile number is a more likely explanation.

See above.

Because clearly you were not the person who applied for a loan and there was no anything to discuss with you.

It could quite easily have been a typo on an application, or a mis-dial.

Nothing to worry about.
