Received a call from this number, but didn’t hear anything-no voicemail or anything left behind! Seems a bit suspect, if you ask me!

I just received a call from this number. They’re insisting on an upfront payment for the first week. They’ve rung us about three or four times over the past month. Are these folks a bit iffy? They claim to be associated with Black Horse Finance.

It's imperative that you inform the local authorities about this situation and update your banking details post haste. This scammer has other phone numbers at their disposal that they might utilise as well.

There's been quite a bit of chatter about these so-called Black Courts loans, yet whenever I attempt to ring this number, it simply doesn't connect. Quite the mystery, really!

I recently received a call from what they claimed was a finance company, stating that I’ve been approved for a loan. However, they mentioned that in order to process this, I’d need to provide the first week’s payment upfront before the funds can be transferred to my bank account. It all feels a bit off, to be honest.

On the 11th of October, 2010, that same lady contacted us yet again, insisting we fork out another £150 to complete the loan deposit process. She asserted that the funds had already been deposited in our account, but to our surprise, there was absolutely nothing there. It felt like a blatant scam, and we promptly alerted the police about it. That woman bombarded us with four calls that day, urging us to send cash via Western Union. We stood firm and refused to part with any money to India, and our mate warned us that it was a right swindle. At that point, she lost her temper and became quite aggressive towards our friend. In total, we've been conned out of £620.

Earlier today, we received a call that was quite similar to what you've experienced. As soon as the lady on the line started talking, I mentioned that I’d already settled a payment under that name. Without a moment's hesitation, she just hung up! Quite baffling, really.

I recently received a missed call that piqued my curiosity. When I tried to return the call, all I got was a disconnected line. The number that was displayed was 00 016100980. It’s odd, especially with those extra two zeros at the beginning. Feels quite suspicious, if you ask me!

We've sadly been ensnared by this scam. A woman kept calling us, insisting we send some initial cash via Western Union. It was bizarre how her phone numbers would shift constantly. We're still left hanging, waiting for the documents and funds that will undoubtedly never materialise. This was supposedly Black Horse Finance, although it has no affiliation with Lloyds Bank whatsoever.

Cheers! I popped into the neighbourhood newsagents where they handle Western Union transactions, and the chap there hadn't a clue about them either. While we were there, she got in touch with the police to inform them on our behalf, and they are now looking into the matter. Thankfully, I never parted with any cash. Much appreciated once again!

We've just received a call from a company claiming to be Black Horse Finance. Apparently, they've approved us for four loans! They mentioned sending someone round tomorrow to get some documents signed and promised us a package of cash - but only if we make our first payment in the morning at a location I’ve never come across before. Sounds rather suspicious, if you ask me!

I’ve just noticed that I missed a call from 00 01610098000. I tried dialling back, but the line went dead. That extra pair of zeros at the start is quite odd-feels a bit suspect to me! Definitely not something I’d trust.

We were contacted by individuals claiming to be from a finance company based in the UK, specifically regarding smart loans. However, it turned out that the number they called from only allowed outgoing calls.
