Warning but don't be too ALARMED

Hi I just wanted to let you know about an experience that has recently unsettled us and thought I would share it with you all.
Craig had a call the other evening asking if we had an alarm fitted in our house. The guy calling explained that he was calling from an alarm company and they were looking for a house in our area to give a free alarm to.
Any way the guy then asked a number of questions including do we both work full time? Are we away from the House all day?
Craig agreed to an appointment for an advisor to call to the house and discuss the alarm and of course promptly gave him the house details.
To say that I was concerned would under play the conversation we had when I found out what had happened. I felt it was some sort of scam and could not believe the amount of detail my husband was prepared to go into with a complete stranger.
It came as no surprise to me that no one actually turned up to the house for the appointment.
I think that we were targeted by someone to establish if it was worth them visiting us whilst we were out, Craig disagrees and thinks they are just not a very good company and have lost the details(bless him sometimes his naivety is painful).
Either way in case it is a scam I thought I would share it with you so you can be vigilant. If it isn't then there is no problems for anyone and if it is you may just avoid a nasty visit.
Be safe out there!
