11 monthsIf you get a call from PayPal, don’t answer or share any info. It’s most likely a scam. Stay safe and just hang up.PayPal11 monthsI keep getting calls from different numbers, but I never answer. I think it’s some sort of Paypal scam, so I just block and report every one of them. Such annoying scammers!1 yearI keep getting calls now and then from someone saying they're from Virgin Media or Moorcroft, but I've never used Virgin Media at all. I've been living overseas for more than 15 years, in places like Spain and Northern Cyprus, where Virgin Media isn’t even offered. Now I’ve just received a text saying I might owe money to Virgin Media and mentioning a Miss Sarah Hughes who’s supposedly handling my ‘overdue debt’. This is totally false, and it’s really worrying how dodgy these tactics have become.Virgin MediaMoorcroftUKSpainNorthern CyprusTRNCMiss Sarah Hughes2 yearsI never even signed up for PayPal at all.PayPal2 yearsI got a letter from Moorcroft Debt Recovery Ltd. When I rang the number on it, they asked way too many personal questions before I could speak to anyone. It felt like they wanted way more info than necessary. Best bet is to just give them nonsense answers or just hang up straight away.Moorcroft Debt Recovery Ltd2 yearsGot a letter from Moorcroft Debt Recovery saying I owed PayPal some money. I called them up, told them straight I didn’t owe anything, and they just hung up. Then I looked up Moorcroft online and saw their phone number was different from the one on the letter. I also contacted PayPal myself and they confirmed I’m not in any debt. Definitely a scam, watch out people!Moorcroft Debt RecoveryPayPal2 yearsI got a letter at my place for someone called 'Marty Limb' (not a real person!) claiming I owed £108.80 to PayPal. It had a phone number (01614 752860) that they said to call to sort out payment terms. Thing is, Moorcroft Debt Recovery Ltd (and their site www.mdrl.co.uk) do have a real 0330 number, but this 01614 one didn’t look right. I just ignored the letter and put that number straight on my block list. Honestly, I’d advise anyone else to do that too, it’s just nonsense.Moorcroft Debt Recovery Ltd. co. ukMarty LimbPayPal2 yearsTotally a con! Instead of phoning random people, they’re sending letters addressed to actual folks with their real name and address. The weird bit is, the number they put on the letter? Never ring it, it’s a dead end.2 yearsI got a letter addressed to 'Unknown Occupier' from some place called Moorcroft Dept Recovery Ltd, saying I owe money to PayPal. The letter was pushing me to ring their number to sort out some debt that isn't even real. Definitely looks like a scam to me.Moorcroft Dept Recovery Ltd2 yearsI got a letter on 14/5/24 addressed to Komei Nakata but using my full address, demanding payment on a supposedly overdue PAYPAL account. Best not to reply to it.Komei NakataPAYPAL2 yearsJust got a letter about a debt supposedly owed to PayPal but it was sent to Ki Otsu - not my name at all, even though the address matches mine. I’m certain I don’t owe anything to PayPal.PayPalKi Otsu2 yearsGot a letter today from Moorcroft Debt Recovery Limited but it was meant for someone I don’t know.
