11 yearsI’ve just received yet another troubling call regarding a so-called no-fault accident that supposedly occurred three years back. Honestly, this must be the 300th time I’ve been harassed about it! The caller claimed that my information was shared by some third party but refused to give any details, citing the Data Protection Act. It seems I’m not even privy to finding out who this mysterious entity is, despite the whole situation reeking of deception. - Caller number: 0161 777 314311 yearsI received a rather curious call earlier, claiming that I'd been involved in a car accident back in August. Odd, considering I haven't gotten behind the wheel for a fair few years now. I simply informed them that I hadn't a clue what they were on about. Quite baffling, really!11 yearsReceived a call claiming to be from Victoria Legal, but I can’t find any information about them online. Very odd, isn’t it? - caller: Victoria LegalVictoria Legal11 yearsReceived a call at precisely 17:16 on Wednesday, 22nd April 2015. The caller introduced himself as "Cody from Victoria Legal". This fella reached out to me on my personal mobile and was quite insistent about knowing my full name. He claimed to possess "documented evidence" indicating I was a "non-fault victim of a road incident back in April 2013" and that there was "compensation waiting to be claimed" due to this so-called "accident". To be frank, I can’t recall any such incident-on the road or anywhere else-during that timeframe. It did pique my curiosity for a bit, I must admit… So, I took to the internet to dig a little deeper into this "Victoria Legal" business, and the only notable mention I found was an Australian site-nothing resembling a U.K. legal firm at all! If they were a genuine legal entity operating in the U.K., surely it wouldn’t be that difficult to track them down, would it? The notion of easy money waiting for me to scoop up… A WORD OF CAUTION! If it feels like it’s too good to be true, chances are, it is! I suspect this is nothing but a crafty bunch of con artists trying to reel someone in. Cheers for reading, and stay vigilant!CodyU. K.11 yearsI received a rather peculiar call the other day. Some chap named Cody from Victoria Legal reached out to me, claiming that someone else had reported me as a victim of an accident they supposedly caused. Apparently, there's some kind of file already neatly tucked away, just waiting for me to confirm the details of this supposed mishap. They’re saying that once I do, I'll be in line for some compensation. Quite the strange situation, wouldn’t you agree? It all sounds a bit shady to me!CodyVictoria Legal11 yearsThis sort of fraud ought to be put to an end without delay! They informed me that I was involved in a car crash, which is utterly untrue since I've never had one. Nuisance calls of this nature ought to be prohibited by the authorities. It’s high time the government intervened to protect us from this nonsense!11 yearsWe've been receiving incessant calls from this number, yet they never seem to answer. Eventually, they did manage to speak with us, claiming my mum had been part of a road traffic accident and they were contacting her on behalf of someone else making a claim against her. I asked for the date of this supposed incident, and guess what? They just hung up! The odd part is that she hasn't been behind the wheel for more than five years now. So good luck trying to sort that one out! 😂11 yearsI picked up the phone just in time, and the caller asked for me before abruptly ending the call. It's frustrating, as I’m always in a hurry when these calls come through. I'm really not interested in receiving these sorts of calls at all!11 yearsI’m thoroughly exasperated with this number that keeps ringing me, only to go silent as soon as I pick up!11 yearsI keep getting calls from this number daily, only for them to disconnect as soon as I pick up. It's incredibly frustrating!11 yearsPhoning me up, not uttering a word, then just cutting off the line.11 yearsI received a rather dubious communication from a company that claims to be Victoria Legal. They somehow managed to obtain our address and are insisting that we were involved in a vehicular accident, which is utterly false!Victoria LegalSubmit Your Own Report (0161 777 3143)
