AIBU to think this intimidating house buying letter should be reported to police?

[Blopi]

Friend’s elderly neighbours came back from holiday to find a letter delivered by person. It has made them upset and frightened.

It was addressed to them personally Mr and Mrs (surname)
They said that their home is too big for the couple and would be suitable for a 5 bedroom HMO. Willing to pay £Xk for it (properties have been selling for 10-15% more) and will visit them on Thursday at 11am to discuss things. Signed by Mr (common surname). No phone number or email address.

Her neighbours have zero intention of moving home as they have lived there for 58 years. They are upset on how they are targeted and wondering how did they get their names?

In the past I had these letters which have been sent to others down the estate. Though not intimidating like this letter, nor personalised.

Unfortunately my friend is working on Thursday. She would have loved to have seen if the person turned up and told

Should my friend phone the police on the non emergency line about this? As maybe something else dodgy going on

There is a lot of detail missing. Every upsetting thing isn't a police matter. Their names were almost certainly on the electoral registry. The letter was probably sent to a number of people.

Mountain out of a molehill. Let the little things go.

I suspect you may not have realised that the original letter had no contact details apart from a name on it.

there are no contact details on the letter.

so they are going to turn up at everybody's houses?

I think it's the AI that @NotThisShitAgain121 has used to generate her replies that has missed that. People should state they have used AI and always double check what it says is correct (I have been burnt by this...)

I did wonder......and what an apt username!

I think they need to arrange for a friend or friends or family members to be there and when these cheeky arrogant pratts turn up let them read them the riot act, tell them in no uncertain terms they have absolutely zero right to write let alone turn up at the property, then get nerf guns out and shoot at them still they leave.

She should smear the letter with dogshit and send it back!😡

The original letter wasn't a matter for the police, but this would be!

Who should she send it back to?
