Hi all
So someone has created insurance quote ( I hope accidentally some how used my email, which I find odd) but it got there personal details 😕
Is worth ringing up the site/company to let them know or do I need to report this ?
Or is just simply delete account - think nothing of it and they by mistake used wrong email

Lots of people put in random email addresses to avoid getting spammed afterwards, they then change it to their real email address when buying. Its somewhat inevitable that some randomly selected email will actually be a box monitored by someone especially if someone takes their real email address (eg bobsmith@gmail.com) and just adds a 1 after it (bobsmith1@gmail.com)
Similarly on here many will say to do dummy quotes but using information like your data but not your real data and so the personal details you've got may equally be fictitious0 -
