Got a call from a number very similar to 01258650031 just about an hour before, pulling the exact same scam about Diesel Emission Compensation. The caller knew all my info - my name, phone number, the make of my car and the reg plate - looks like they got it from someone pretending to be with Greater Manchester Police. When I called them out, they just stuck to their rehearsed spiel. Total con artist from start to finish.
