So I got a call claiming I’d won £2500 and they asked for my bank details, which I stupidly gave. Later, when I checked my account online, all my cash had disappeared. I rang the bloke back and told him I’m delighted because I’m eager to live in poverty and hoped he’d enjoy getting rich off me. Guess I’ll be relying on foodbanks and leftovers now, cheers for that mate.

This number just called me out the blue, claiming they had a PPI cheque waiting for me. Total scam, don't trust it!

I got calls from them like five times in a row, each time asking for my bank info. It was pretty clear it was a scam. They claimed they had a cheque waiting for me but said they’d only send it if I gave them my account details. When I told them I wasn’t giving anything, they started yelling at me so ridiculously that I just ended up chuckling.

Got a call about £2000+ ppi refund supposedly from the fca. I asked which bank it was from, and they said fca - which isn’t a bank! Told them I work in motor insurance fraud and the questions they kept asking made me even more wary. I told them to just send me the cheque if it was real. They said alright and then just hung up on me!

My missus got a call from this number earlier, and the person claimed there was a PPI cheque waiting for £2500. When she asked which firm it was coming from, they just kept quiet. She got suspicious straight away, said it sounded like a dodgy scam, and then ended the call.

They rang up claiming they had a cheque waiting for me. Offered to collect my address, but also warned me not to cancel any direct debits or payments. Seemed a bit fishy to me.

So some bloke just called saying there’s a cheque for £4800 made out to me, and then asked straight up for my bank details. Sounds fishy if you ask me.
