8 yearsThis number seems to be from the police, they disguise themselves as scammers to track phones, strange but true.8 yearsGot a call from Graham Robinson Claim Advisory Group asking me to send £360 through Moneygram for a refund of £3600. Same old scam really.Graham RobinsonClaim Advisory Group9 yearsI got a call from a guy with an Asian accent who said his name was Harry, then a second call came from his mate Alex. They played the same trick described above, with our pal Graham showing up later with a cheque for £3600. This time, they asked me to pop to Asda and buy iTunes vouchers worth £200. I told them I’d send some Kenny Loggins CDs instead. That seemed to set him off, and frankly, I got annoyed too and told him exactly what I thought. Do these lot actually think we believe they’re from some Government office, and that their names are really Harry, George, or John? I doubt it.HarryAlexGrahamAsdaiTunesKenny LogginsJohn9 yearsGot calls from Graham Robinson at Claims Advisory Group and some Ryan Harris. They told me to rush to the Post Office and send £360 via moneygram to get £3,600 back from the Government. Called me around 5 times and said to keep it secret. When I asked questions, they stopped answering. Really dodgy folks!!!Graham RobinsonClaims Advisory GroupRyan HarrisPost OfficeMoneyGramGovernment10 yearsTerressa Walker calling from Claims Advisory Group said I was owed £3600 for bank charges. She told me to go to the post office and send £360 via moneygram and that a solicitor called Graham Robinson would come round with a cheque later that day. Felt fishy so I just said no cheers and ended the call.Terressa WalkerClaims Advisory GroupMoneyGramGraham Robinson10 yearsGot the same call on 02036300312 - definitely scammers!10 yearsHad exactly the same thing happen. Three calls from someone claiming a solicitor would visit with a cheque and wanted 10% of £3600 upfront. I wasn’t having any of it and said no. He gave me this number, 01612650016, telling me to ring if I changed my mind. Complete mug!10 yearsHad exactly the same phone chat as the one mentioned in the comment from 25/11/2016, just now at 12.20 on 21st December.10 yearsPhone number 01617681298 - Beware of these nasty scammers pretending to be from UK Claims Advisory Group, saying they can sort out your bank overpayments. The police really need to catch these fraudsters and lock them up!UK Claims Advisory GroupFraud Squad10 yearsThis awful man David Cooper keeps scaring me, and his number is 01617681059. He’s got a partner in crime called Alex Brown. I searched online and both those names match people who’ve sadly passed away. Really hope no one else falls for this dodgy scam.David CooperAlex Brown10 yearsThank goodness my mum checked with me before doing anything. These scums really need to quit trying to steal cash from old folks.10 yearsGot the exact same call about £3600, been waiting for the guy to show up camera in hand so I can snap a pic of him. Got my English bull terrier here too, might just put him with the dog when he comes round.10 yearsMy mum got a call from a woman called Barbara Gordon yesterday and since then she’s had 4 calls telling her to go to the post office to collect £360, promising she’d get a cheque for £3600 in return. It’s awful they’re targeting older, vulnerable folks like this, they really need to be stopped. I phoned the number (0161 768 1090) and some foreign bloke answered, asking who I was. Now my mum’s scared they might turn up at her house this afternoon like they said on the call. They’ve got the personal details of the people they’re ringing!!Barbara Gordon10 yearsBeware! This number is definitely a con. It's best not to put your faith in anyone who calls from it.10 yearsThese lot called me yesterday, and even when I hung up on them they rang back right away asking why I’d cut them off, claiming they had money owed to me. I told them straight they were scammers and I wasn’t bothered. Then today I got a call saying I needed to pop down to the post office to get a Moneygram because a solicitor called Graham Robinson was bringing me a cheque for £3600. I lost my temper and told the bloke to get lost before slamming the phone down. He called back and told me to f. off and called me a b##ch!!Graham Robinson10 yearsThis happened to me too. Someone named David Cooper rang up saying a solicitor was nearby to hand my mum (she’s 66) a cheque for £3,600. I told her to ask how much they’d take in fees, and they said 10%. We asked for his phone number to ring back later, and it was this one - 0161 7681090. When I looked it up, I saw loads of other posts about it being a scam. Honestly, if it sounds too good to be true, it’s most likely a trick. The Claims Advisory website even has a warning about scams like this using their name recently.David CooperClaims Advisory10 yearsSome lady called this number and told my 82-year-old mum she had to pop down to the post office. She couldn’t really explain why, but I think it was something about paying money. Mum was told she’d be getting a refund for some bank charges she’d paid too much on.10 yearsSome guy from Asia rang up my 70 year old mum trying to pull a con but lucky for us she’s pretty clued up on these things. He asked her to send £360 through the post office and then said a Raymond Robinson would drop off a cheque for £3600 later. Proper scam. I’m baffled how they got all her info - name, address, phone, dob, bank stuff and even the ppi she was entitled to? These scammers really must be stopped!Raymond Robinson10 yearsYesterday I got called 3 times by these guys, first a Michael Wilson and then today a Mark Taylor called me, and my name's Muhammad. Today they told me I’d be getting a cheque for £3600 delivered by hand. When I said I thought it would come through the post, the bloke got annoyed and asked who told me that, saying no one said anything like that. Then he said they wanted 10%, £360, for their fees and time. I just said no and hung up.Michael WilsonMark TaylorMuhammad10 yearsMark Taylor Claims advisory rang my mother-in-law telling her she might get £3600, but she needed to send £360 through MoneyGram first and some guy would deliver the cheque. Luckily, she called me before doing anything and I wanted to look into it properly. Glad I did! Total bunch of muppets! Told her to report it to the police straight away.Mark Taylor10 yearsClaims advisory service? Sounds like a cunning but nasty scam aimed at older folks. I got two calls in as many days. What happened to me was just like what others said here. Thankfully, I twigged it was a con on the second time they called. Reported it to the Police. The more details they get, the faster these dodgy people will be stopped.10 yearsMy 65-year-old father was told to get in touch with this number, along with a solicitor named Raymond Robinson. At first, my dad didn't think it was real, but then the bloke actually turned up with a cheque. After that, he started threatening to punch him and even asked if my dad had a granddaughter, saying he was going to “f*** her till she dies”. As you can imagine, my dad's totally shaken and is now reporting the whole thing to the cops. These scammers really have to be put to an end!!Raymond Robinson10 yearsThis has to be a scam. A guy called Ray Robinson said he'd come to drop off a cheque, but my dad, who’s 65 and battling cancer, was confused about how he knew such personal stuff. Also, they wanted us to pay £360 upfront for some £3600 bank charge refund. DO NOT SEND ANY CASH, IT’S COMPLETELY FAKE!!!!!Ray Robinson10 yearsThey’ve called my mum a couple of times now - crazy thing is, they actually knew her bank!10 yearsMy 85 yr old Mum keeps gettin calls from this number from different Asian blokes, leaving cheeky messages on her answerphone with the same story loads of others mentioned here (some Claims Advisory Group about bank charge overpayments). Complete scam. Told ’em they’re reported to fraud authorities for botherin her with this nonsense.Claims Advisory Group10 yearsMy dad, who’s 73, nearly got scammed but thankfully he checked with me before sending any cash. If he hadn’t, he would’ve lost £360. The scammers used the same names and tales that others have mentioned here before.10 yearsIt appears that this individual is targeting senior citizens, pressuring them into parting with their cash through intimidation tactics.10 yearsHey, Teresa Walker has been calling my dad for the past couple of days from 01617 681090. Then yesterday, some bloke named Mark Myere said he was from Claims Advisory Group. I'm pretty sure it's all a scam but my dad just won’t take any notice.Teressa WalkerMark MyereClaims Advisory Group10 yearsThere was this claims advice group who said we could get £3600 back for bank charges we’d paid too much. But first, they wanted £360 sent through a Post Office money gram. When we asked why not just deduct that from the cheque, the guy called Raymond Robinson snapped at us, said he wasn't daft, and just ended the call. Proper dodgy, if you ask me.Post OfficeRaymond Robinson10 yearsAbsolute scammer made my Mum feel so awful. She’s 85 and folks like this are just horrible.10 yearsI've come across someone asserting they work for the Claims Advisory Group. Is there any truth to that?Claims Advisory Group10 yearsIn just 3 days, I got 4 calls from people being really pushy, saying I was owed a cheque for £3,600. They said all I had to do was buy a MoneyGram for £360. It sounded dodgy, so I rang my cousin, who works as a legal secretary, and she told me to report it as fraud, which I did. They phoned me again today and I told them their calls were illegal and I wasn’t going to send money just in case. Then they asked if I wanted to cancel the cheque, and when I said yes, they instantly hung up on me.MoneyGram10 yearsJust like everyone else here, got a call about £3600 supposedly waiting for us. The solicitor said he’d ring for his £360 fee, and there were strong Asian accents but they spoke with a pretty English tone. They even asked if my hubby could walk! Bit odd, since we’re about 4 miles away from the nearest post office. They sounded convincing, even though we couldn’t understand half of what they said. Problem is, plenty of folk might fall for the idea of a big payout. Someone really ought to look into this scam properly!10 yearsI've already passed the info onto the fraud squad, and they're checking it out now.10 years0161 7681090- Got conned today by someone called Teresa Walker who kept ringing me saying I had a cheque for £3,600. Then a bloke called Raymond Robinson was meant to deliver it to my home. Foolishly, I went to the post office and sent £360 through money gram. The number Raymond used was 01612988966, all Manchester area codes. I've now reported it to the fraud squad.Teresa WalkerRaymond RobinsonMoneyGramManchester10 yearsThese scammers tried to trick my elderly folks. They claimed my mum was owed £3600 and said they’d send a cheque, then asked if she could walk because they wanted her to go put £360 in at the post office. They even wanted to know how far it was. What really scares me is my mum nearly fell for it. Luckily, my sister and I were around to double check everything. When I mentioned calling the police, they hung up straight away. This is an absolute con.10 yearshappened the same as others said got three calls total, one was a hidden number, another from 052884573, and just today from this number too, watch out it’s definitely a scam thing going on here10 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were with the claim advisory group, this was the third time they rang me in just two days. The bloke said I was due £3600 because of overpaid bank fees and that a solicitor called Terence Robinson was nearby and wanted to drop something off in the next few hours. When I told him I wouldn’t be home, he snapped “are you mad?” and kept asking where I was headed. I told him that was none of his business, then he said he’d cancel it - whatever that means.Terence Robinson10 yearsthis company is a total scam, stay far away from them.11 yearsthis number's also been ringing my folks, telling em they've got £3600 back, and tries to make them meet at the post office if they send the cheque, defo a scam, watch out y'all11 yearsGot a call from some asian bloke saying i had £3,600 in bank fees owed.
