Had a call from 0356113998 who left a message that there was a suitcase found with my name and to ring back immediately and use the 4 digit extension supplied to reach "my department". No names, individual or corporate appear. Of course, I have not lost any suitcse and I guess that they are playing on people's curiosity or greed to get a ring back.
