Pension cold call scam

Pension scam call
I just got a call from a not-very- sophisticated scam [I assume] asking to speak to me under my married name and saying they had news about my 'frozen pension' with a previous employer. As it happens I have recently changed employer but had transferred the pension- when I asked what name this pension was in, they could not tell me my maiden name used for work..they called themselves Taylor Barrett [or Barnett]. First time I've got one of these- could trap unwary into revealing details.

Thank you for giving us another company making such cold calls. The more coverage these dodgy schemes get the more likely they will not succeed.
