Got a call from this number, said I wasn’t interested and mentioned Financial Control Authority. They told me not to hang up, said I’d get a payout of £7000, plus a £200 Amazon voucher, and to ring back. I sent £100 and they said someone would come round later. That was three days ago. They keep calling me every day asking for another voucher. I told them my account’s overdrawn and I need cash. They don’t seem to get it. Feels like a total scam and I’ve lost money already.

This number showed up on my phone and when I answered, they said don’t hang up, I’m meant to be getting a payout of £7000 plus a £200 Amazon voucher if I call them back. I gave them £100 and they said someone would come later. That was three days ago and they keep calling every day asking for another card. I told them my account was overdrawn and I need cash, but they don’t get it. Feels like a total scam and I’ve already lost money.

Know this scammer from Prestwich named Lisa Murray Degisi. Seen her on Facebook with the posh house and flashy cars, none of it earned through proper work. Her daft partner Reno's just as dodgy, never held a real job either. Same goes for his brother Tony Degisi, looks more like a grocer than anything else. Likes hanging around with young birds into their coke now and then. Their mate Stuwart Hall's a bit of a nutter too.

I received three phone calls from 0161 818 4984 earlier today, all within a short span around 12:50. The first two times it rang just once before they disconnected. On the third call, the person on the other end inquired about my wellbeing, right before launching into their sales spiel. I decided to interrupt them courteously, and after a few not-so-pleasing remarks, they chose to hang up. I've since taken the liberty of blocking their number.

I received a call from someone purporting to be from the UK Claims Department, insisting they had details regarding an alleged road traffic incident I was supposedly involved in. Apparently, they’d gotten this information from some 'Traffic Accident Department' within the government. However, when I pointed out that I’m actually employed by the UK government, and that such a department doesn’t exist, they abruptly terminated the call. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!
