They’re getting trickier! This number rang me, but as soon as I picked up, all I got was a ring tone like I was the one calling, then it just cut off. Maybe they use some sort of auto dialler trying to find live numbers to peddle on?

Got loads of calls from an Asian woman about some PPI claim, kept saying my name over and over. I’ve blocked the number and reported it now.

A bit dodgy, if you ask me! This number rang me, but all I got was the sound of the phone ringing as though I were the one calling them. Then it just went silent. I can’t help but think they might be using some sort of auto-dialling system to fish for active numbers to peddle their wares. That’s why I’ve flagged it as a potential scam!

I had the misfortune of receiving a call from an Indian woman trying to persuade me about some tax refund linked to a PPI claim I made ages ago. Her grasp of English left much to be desired, and it felt incredibly dodgy-definitely a scam! Beware, folks; this is all very suspect!

What sort of scams will we see emerging from India next? Given that they’re currently in the UK, I urge the Conservative party to act swiftly regarding the boat situation. Perhaps it’s time to consider apprehending them and sending them off to Rwanda? They might very well be here unlawfully.

What a complete rip-off! They claimed to be Help Your Tax, or HYT as they like to call themselves. Their website looks like an absolute mess, and a quick search on Companies House raises a lot of red flags. The director appears to have held the position for a mere week! Keep your distance from these dodgy characters!

They said they’d handled a PPI claim for me a while back under another business name. I actually sorted my PPI claim on my own. The place was really loud and I ended up just hanging up on them.

Beware of these PPI con artists! It's best to steer clear of them; they’ll only take up your time and could very well make off with your hard-earned cash.

The caller had a weird foreign accent and the line was terrible, full of crackles. They kept going on about PPI and HSBC or something. I immediately thought it was a scam cause the background noise was awful and the voice was so hard to make out. Ended up just hanging up, it was painful to listen to.

He tried to tell me I got less on my PPI claim and said he could sort me out with extra cash! When I asked him where he was calling from (thought maybe some call centre in India), he said Manchester - odd since the number was showing Blackburn!!! I knew straight away it was a scam, especially since I never even made a PPI claim!

Got a call from this number but missed it, so I rang back. There was a recorded message saying calls to "HYT" are recorded, then it cut off. Then the same number called me straight back, and a woman started going on about PPR repayment info. She had my name and address, but I never said a word; she just kept jabbering away. Seems like a dodgy scam to me.

Got a call from a lady with a really thick accent, she was talking about some claim from an accident back in 2009 - problem is, I’ve never been in any accident at all. She mentioned something about getting between £500 and £1,000 back, but her accent was so strong and there was loads of noise in the background, I couldn’t make out what she was actually offering. Oddly enough, she did know my first name, which I found a bit strange.

They said they were handling PPI. They already knew I'd had a PPI claim sorted. Asked me how much I got but I couldn't recall. Then they wanted to know my yearly wage in 2019. I gave them the figure. They told me since it was taxed at 40%, I wasn't eligible for any extra tax relief from HMRC. That was it, the call ended.

Some bloke rang up on my husband’s mobile saying I’d claimed PPI and a tax refund. I told them straight I haven’t worked in yonks, like 13 years, so no tax to pay and no PPI claim either. Absolutely refused to hand over any personal info on the phone - never trust these calls anymore, getting proper annoying how many scams are about.

So this marriage allowance thing was a proper scam. My mum got a call and the person on the other end already had loads of her details, even messing around about how many years she’d been wed. I told her to just end the call, but she started getting a bit annoyed. Then they messaged her a link to click on so she could supposedly give permission. Definitely dodgy stuff 🚩🚩🚩

The lady had quite a strong accent, seemed South African maybe, but she mentioned 'Anya' which made me think she might be based around Blackburn. I wonder if they use some kind of smart call forwarding though? She came across as really confident and knew our phone company straight away, but completely messed up by talking about a Marriage Tax Refund when we’ve never even tied the knot.

Someone called Harvey said he was from this place called HYT, telling us about some marriage tax refund. I picked up my dad's phone instead, and they just assumed I was my mum. They never asked for any security or personal info, which was a dead giveaway it was dodgy. I played along for a bit just for laughs before saving the proof when they messed up. Honestly, if they ring you, just block the number - it’s definitely a con.

Had a chat with an Indian chap the other day. He insisted he could help me snag a tax refund for a married couple, but I mentioned I’ve been sorting that out myself since 1994. He countered by saying it only started in 2015. We ended up rather politely agreeing to disagree. I mentioned my former tenure at HMRC and offered some guidance, but before I knew it, he’d ended the call. Quite the character!
