    Warning about water supply - is it a scam?

    Just received an automated message on my landline from 02045257221, purporting to be from a water company (think it was Suffolk - but the very beginning of the message was missing.). It said something about water supply for 2 to 3 hours but that not everyone will be affected and said to press 1 to confirm message received. I duly did.
    But when I googled the number it had been reported as a scam, a nuisance and a broadband scam, as well as a water utility service based in London
    By pressing 1, what damage have I done, other than verifying the landline is active?
