I received a phone call from a gentleman inquiring about a recent car crash that, to my knowledge, never took place. Quite puzzling, if you ask me!

Today, I received two phone calls from someone claiming to be with the so-called Claims Department, inquiring about a car crash that I've never even been involved in.

I just got a message that a £600 debit card transaction from abroad was blocked. I haven't done anything like that. Oh, and I didn’t catch who was trying to ring me either.

Got a call from someone trying to scam me about insurance, I didn’t hold back and told them off, then I just hung up and blocked their number straight away.

I got a call from someone with an Asian accent saying they were from some “claims dept”, I reckon they must've grabbed my number from an advert I put up just a few mins before. When I told him that, he just ended the call. I've gone ahead and blocked that number now.

This woman called me asking about a crash supposedly from two years back. I said I've never had any accident and asked how she got my phone number. Then she just ended the call. Definitely some kind of scam!

Heads up! Got two calls today about some car crash I supposedly had, but I never was in any accident. Total scam, watch out!

Some guy called Sam rang me from Manchester or something, saying my car insurance had expired. I told him it did, today actually (even though I don’t even own a car). Then he asked for my bank info, and I swear I could hear people giggling in the background. I told him straight up, this isn’t a proper call centre, they wouldn’t ask stuff like that.

At 12:27 today, my phone automatically flagged the call as risky, so I just let it ring and didn't pick up.

Got a missed call from this number and gave it a ring back, but it just wouldn’t pick up or even go through properly. Not bothering again. Honestly, the UK government needs to step up and do something rather than feed us all rubbish about some made-up cold or sniffles, probably cooked up by some American bloke like Bill Gates, no doubt.

I'm pretty sure this is some sort of scam. They called asking to talk to someone who apparently had a small accident within the past couple of years. Feels dodgy to me.

Today, I noticed a missed call from this number??2? and have no idea who it could be.
