I always avoid this type of caller, and I cut the call pretty short.

Just WONDERING IF THIS IS LEGIT ? SHOULD I HAVE LET THEM DO AN ENERGY ASSESSMENT ?
Your use of the word "REBATE" ....SCREAMS flat-out SALES PITCH..
...You can NOT get a rebate without first BUYING something.....
Hanging up was the right thing to do.
