I picked up the phone but there was silence, so I just hung up.

This number keeps texting me every day, but I’ve never lived in Luton or had anything to do with council housing there. I just ignore the messages because it’s obviously meant for someone else. Tried blocking it loads of times but it doesn’t stop. This has been happening for more than a year and a half now.

Is it really okay to be bugging kids these days?

Kids keep getting bothered by these scammers, it's really shocking how they go after little ones like that.

Beware of scam! I got a message claiming they needed to talk about my old tenancy with Luton Borough Council. After reading the comments here, it's obvious this is just how they operate. I’ve never rented with LBC, so these people are definitely up to no good.

I’ve been getting calls for ages now from someone saying they’re with Luton Borough Council about an old tenancy. I put the number on block 'cause it doesn’t link up with any actual council dept. Even after blocking, they keep sending texts though. Definitely feels like a scam to me!

Totally a scam, don’t trust it.

So this calls comes from Voicescape, it’s a company that deals with software management and they use automated calls and messages to figure out who responds and then pass that info to the creditor. I get why some think it dodgy for a council to do this stuff, but honestly, it’s not a scam.

It appears that Voicescape is employing rather dubious methods reminiscent of a scam to steer individuals towards a creditor. Quite often, they're operating with incorrect information on the other end, leaving you to engage with someone who's contracted Voicescape to intimidate alleged debtors. Quite amusing, isn't it?

I brought this to attention quite a few months back, yet they persist in their attempts to intimidate me. I escalated the matter to the council, only to be informed that this individual is a legitimate home worker. Am I dealing with the mastermind behind this ruse or merely a manager who’s instructed the housing team to look into it? I’ve already alerted external authorities about the situation.

Here we go again! They keep ringing and texting non-stop about some old tenancy matter. I reached out to the housing office at Luton Borough Council, and they said this person is a legit employee (so either they’re in on it or aware). It’s pretty clear someone must’ve handed over my housing details to this fraudster.

Got a call from someone claiming to be Luton Borough Council about an old tenancy, but I’ve never rented from them before. Pretty sure it’s just a scam.

Got a call supposedly from Luton Borough Council about some tenancy matter. When I hit 1, it connected me to someone on the line. Definitely a scam as they seemed to know my old council details. They also sent me texts asking to get in touch again, and those messages kept coming through even after I blocked the number.

I received a call from a lady with an Indian accent who insisted that I had a rental agreement with the Luton council. To be honest, I’ve never set foot in Luton or dealt with their council! It makes me curious how they’ve managed to get hold of my number. Definitely feels like a scam to me!

I've been receiving numerous calls from this number lately.

I received a call from this number earlier today, and it rang a bell - I seem to recall that the same individual reached out to me previously. During the last conversation, a woman inquired about my name and date of birth, but she abruptly ended the call shortly after. This whole thing has left me quite puzzled, as I can't quite figure out what it’s all about.

I received a rather dubious automated call that purported to be from the Luton council. They instructed me to press 1 to address some pressing matters regarding my tenancy. Being a tenant myself, I engaged with a woman who seemed to know my former addresses and very confidently claimed that I owed money due to an overpayment from three and a half years ago - a complete misrepresentation of a matter that had already been resolved! I ended the conversation and promptly blocked the number, but alas, the texts keep coming. To make matters worse, this phone number isn’t listed among the council's official contact details, which is rather concerning given their apparent access to my personal information.

I've been getting persistent calls from 01582228202, with voicemail messages claiming they're from the Luton Borough Council and urgently need to discuss my tenancy agreement. The thing is, I’m not even affiliated with the council in any way! It’s clearly a bunch of charlatans trying to pull a fast one!
