Advice on reporting a rogue trader using fake registrations at Companies House

He has a quote sheet with all his registrations at the bottom, one of which says he is registered at Companies. House and gives his company and company number. Neither are right and give details of an Asian sounding gentleman from the south. We are the NW. On checking on Yelp and Yell and Google reviews, it transpires he has 3 sole trader names and 2 business names, all with negative reviews about him. I have an alternative name. Walter Mitty comes to mind.
Still not totally clear.
1) His 'quote sheet' had details of a limited company and associated company number, does the number match the limited company name when you checked online with Companies House?
2) You say "Neither are right and give details of an Asian sounding gentleman from the south." Do you mean the director of the company is as you describe?
3) Have you tried contacting the company on the 'quote sheet' to see if they are connected in any way with the person you have been dealing with?0 -
Hello...No the number on the quote sheet does not match that as described on Companies House.
No, the director is not as I describe and have no connections at all with the company I have contracted with. Sorry it was less than clear. I had tried to write from my phone.
I have contacted TS and CAB and also Action Fraud.
Thankyou0
