I got a call from someone saying the person who crashed into my car had ‘soft tissue injuries’ and now they were trying to pin the blame on me! I simply told them to give me a contact name and phone number so my lawyer could get in touch. What a load of rubbish - definitely steer clear of these lot!

Got a call from this number and as soon as I mentioned I didn’t want to chat (just a tiny scratch, no one hurt or anything), the person threatened legal action, saying I owed money for supposed repairs on my car. I told them I work as an Insurance Underwriter and that’s definitely not how these things go, and then, no joke, he told me to “shut up, you slag”. Utterly ridiculous behaviour.

‭0161 820 1348‬ rang me earlier. The person on the line was stammering and you could tell she was giggling with someone else while trying to speak to me. What a mess. She mentioned some Vehicle Assessment Centre, but honestly, it felt like a joke. Completely unprofessional and clueless people working there. Total cowboys!

Got a call from 01702690397 today. They knew loads about my accident - my injury, where I lived, my car's reg and even the other car’s details and when it happened. They weren’t rude or anything but as soon as I asked them how they had my info while my lawyer was sorting it out, they just cut the call out of nowhere. Quite dodgy if you ask me.

Got a call from some bloke who started shouting at me just ’cos I told him he’d got the wrong person. He kept arguing and was really rude. After I said I wasn’t who he wanted, he passed me over to some “complaints department” but they named a totally different firm than the first one mentioned. Totally dodgy call, must be spam. I’ve reported it to the police for harassment and abuse.

I got a call from 01423200061 and it was crazy how much they knew about the crash, even the street names! When I tried to find out how they had all that info, they just cut me off and ended the call. Weird experience!

I got a call from 01423200061, some bloke named Sam Matthews claiming to be from The Vehicle Assessment Centre saying I had money owing. How do these people even get hold of your info? It’s proper worrying. The crash happened about 5 months back and everything was sorted then, no one got hurt. But now they’re saying the other driver is saying he got hurt, even though he was driving a massive lorry and it was his rear bumper that hit my car. He already admitted it was his fault. I’m really sick of all this since they clearly had all my details.

I got a call from someone named Sam Matthews on 01423200061 saying he was calling from the Vehicle Assessment Centre and that I had some money to collect. How do these people even get your info? It’s really unsettling. The accident happened about five months ago and everything was already dealt with, no one got hurt. But now they’re saying the other driver is claiming he got injured, even though he was driving a huge lorry and it was his rear bumper that hit my car. He even admitted it was his fault. Honestly, I’m so tired of this, especially since they clearly had all my details.

I got a call from this number and straight away it didn’t feel right. Similar to what others have mentioned, the person seemed to know some vague stuff about my recent accident but couldn’t explain why they were even involved in handling my claim. I rang my claim advisor afterwards and they had no clue who these people were or why they’d be contacting me. To be honest, the bloke on the phone was quite pushy and rude which made me hang up pretty quickly without sharing anything.

These calls have been coming through on loads of different numbers for ages. Now they’re even ringing from overseas. Seriously, don’t bother answering - it’s such a pain. I tried just picking up and not saying a word, and you can tell they get proper annoyed. If you wanna throw your cash away, be my guest, but honestly, just disappear or do us all a favour and return to wherever you came from, cos clearly they’re short on fools!

I honestly don't know how they got my crash info, but they called and rattled off all the details like they had been watching me! Proper creepy and awful experience!

I’ve been getting calls from these numbers loads of times now. Honestly, it’s so annoying dealing with these rude scammers who act like everyone’s daft. Whenever I try asking them stuff, they just get all huffy. This kind of behaviour needs to be stopped pronto. It’s proper harassment. And what about Data Protection laws? Where are they when you need them?

this has been such a hassle, i asked them to take me off their list and after calling me 8 times in just a week, they just hung up on me! absolute rubbish!

I just had a call from someone who hid their number, claiming to be from the V.A.C. They told me the other side admitted fault and supposedly there's cash waiting for my “injuries” - which is bizarre since I’m perfectly fine. As soon as I mentioned I’m already dealing with a solicitor, they ended the call straight away!

It was a scam call. After I ended the call, I dialled 1572 and managed to block the number without paying a thing.

Such a hassle! Feels like they’re really pushing folks into doing dodgy stuff.

I got a call from some motor engineers claiming they were checking up on an assessment about an accident. Thing is, my car was broken into, no accident involved at all. I tried to find out what exactly they knew about this assessment since they wanted to update "the file." Before going further, I asked again what info they had. He got a bit bristly, saying he didn’t like my tone. I told him I knew what their company was about (thanks to this site). Honestly pretty annoyed because I specifically asked them not to share any info, but it seems like they did anyway.

I've been getting loads of calls from this number lately. No idea where they got my info from, but it's really annoying. Wish they'd stop bothering me and maybe find something better to do than harassing folks just going about their day.

No idea how they got hold of my number, they said it wasn’t my fault but still it was totally out of line. Absolutely shouldn’t be allowed to carry on like this.

Just got a call from this guy Nathan who said he was with “motor engineers”. He told me some insurance company set aside £1,500 for me or something. Sounds dodgy if you ask me.

Honestly, these scammers really need to be put to an end. They've rung me up a few times about some accident they claim wasn’t my fault, but actually, it was on me. When I questioned if it was a cold call, they denied it outright but didn’t want to share any company info or even their name. At one point, the person calling had to check with someone beside them, asking "what name should I say?" - not very convincing at all!

Just got a call from some supposed vehicle inspection place after my accident. They said it wasn’t my fault and wanted me to explain everything. When my hubby tried to chat with them, they wouldn’t say which firm they were from. Then they handed us a number to ring and hung up. Caller ID was hidden too. Honestly, don’t fall for these dodgy scams (was tempted to call them something worse but that’d be unfair). Absolute muppets!
