Claimed to be from sky, telling me that my bill was being reduced. Couldn’t understand them properly, and I kept telling them that I don’t conduct business that way. Hung up and then blocked

I received a telephone call from this Amesbury landline number five minutes ago. I have since blocked this landline Amesbury telephone number. I was warned that it is potentially fraudulent.

When asking to remove my name from their database, the caller said they could only do it after they "ra*ped" me. I thought I had misheard and asked for them to repeat themselves and they said "I can remove it after I r*pe you. After I molest you". Reported to police.
