    After a few seconds where I wait for them in their call centre to pick up the call they made to me...

    "Is Kim there?"

    "There's nobody here by that name."

    "Can I speak to Kim something-Chinese-sounding?"

    "I don't know anyone called Kim."

    "Do you know how I can contact Kim?"

    "I don't know Kim."

    "Have you got a business number for Kim something-Chinese-sounding?"

    I hung up at that point.

    I always hang up at that point. They have called for Kim something-Chinese-sounding every day since this line was connected.

    Later, someone will phone from a mobile; that will be a wrong number. I get one of those every afternoon.

      Er.

      No.
      Then I don't think it was you.

            sounds like it wasn't then.

            maybe whoever it was was influenced by zg

            or influenced him.

              I don't know. I can never make out the name because of the accent.

                I have a horrible suspicion they want Mr Kim's money without selling goods first. That is, they want their money back.

                  in that case answer in gibberish. see how long you can keep the conversation going before they hang up.
