Phone call from Newlyn at work

Had a call from them at my workplace recently and I am not happy about this to say the least. They managed to get me to confirm my name and address and that’s about it (caught me very off guard unfortunately). I asked them to confirm where they had got my name from and kept being put on hold and not giving me an answer.
I then asked for the persons full name and they refused to give it to me tried saying they weren’t obliged to. I repeatedly asked for their full name and would not supply it. I then told them that they had no right to ring me at my workplace due to an alleged parking invoice debt that I knew nothing about. Is this a new tactic being used by them ? I am guessing that they’ve been searching social media websites to find me. Finally can I report them to them to the police for harassment?
