On the 12th of September, 2015, I received a rather suspicious call from a gent claiming that we had submitted an application for PPI months back and were supposedly owed £3857. He provided a cheque number, 256143, and insisted I ring 01618189990 for further details. Here’s the kicker: we actually did apply some time ago! I requested that he send a letter for clarification, but he informed me that this wasn’t possible and that I simply had to call the number instead. After reading the earlier comment, it dawned on us that this was indeed a scam; the figure matched precisely and his accent was distinctly Far Eastern. A big thank you to the anonymous user from a month ago who articulated our predicament so well!

A bloke rang me from this number, and all I could hear was him panting like he’d just sprinted a marathon. Quite unsettling, to say the least!

I received a chilling call from this number, during which I was subjected to horrific threats of both sexual violence and death. Upon tracing, it appears this call originated from the Springfield vicinity in Manchester. If my partner ever gets hold of these individuals, it wouldn't surprise me if they ended up with a rather unpleasant situation regarding their fingers, given the vile nature of the call I endured.

I received a call from this number today, and the chap introduced himself as Kevin Peterson. He had quite an unmistakable accent from the far east. He claimed that I was owed a sum of £3857 in PPI from the Halifax and urged me to ring 02032872235 to confirm the details of the claim. He even provided me with a cheque number, 452547, as well as an incident number, 36. However, I did a bit of digging on the 0203 number, and it seems to be linked to various scams as well. Quite suspicious, I'd say!

A few weeks back, I received a call from someone with an Asian accent claiming to discuss my PPI and needing me to fill out some form, which I honestly couldn't recall at all. They mentioned I was due a refund of £3,000 but insisted they’d only take a 10% cut since they supposedly operated as a government agency in collaboration with the banks. They even instructed me to head to the Post Office to withdraw a MoneyGram! That was when I tuned out and tried ringing the number back, but it was perpetually engaged. Be wary, everyone - don’t fall for this trickery; it’s a total scam!

I received a call regarding a refund from PPI, claiming I needed to pay a hefty sum at the post office before they would dispatch me a cheque. It's nothing short of a scam, so I strongly advise against falling for it!
