Somebody rang me saying they were from the Financial Conduct Authority, but luckly for me, I deal with financial crime in my job. So when I fired off a few basic questions, they couldn’t answer any of them properly.

I got a call from this number telling me I’d receive a cheque for £3,500. But first, they said I needed to purchase a £50 Apple card and hand it over to the guy who brings the cheque. Seems dodgy to me, watch out!

0161 818 7589 kept ringing me a few times so I just blocked it. They said something about a car crash and checking if I got any payout - I haven’t had any accident recently or at all! They called on these days/times: 29 April 2020 at 4pm, 30 April 2020 around midday, 1 May 2020 about 11:30am, and 7 May 2020 at 4pm.

01618187170 called me around 4.20 pm today. They tried to confirm my details (??!!) and asked if I had any payout from an accident last year. They couldn’t say when the accident supposedly happened and claimed it’s against the law to claim without an accident!! They kept saying the same thing over and over, even snapped at me with “Listen here”. I heard kids shouting in the background. Even after I said it was a scam, they wouldn’t budge. I just hung up.

Got a call around 7:30pm from someone saying they were with Slater, Hogg & Howeson, going on about a debt. They said it was in dollars, which made no sense, and couldn’t say who I supposedly owed. Their English was pretty poor, and they didn’t even know my name or which part of the country I’m in. Complete scam, honestly just ended the call straight away.

My daughter got a call from this number but the moment I picked up, they just cut the call off. Then about 3 mins later she got another call, but it was an automated message from some fake insurance claim outfit, from a different number - 020 3997 3098. We’ve blocked both numbers on her phone now.

6 years
I got a call from this number but it just rang once and then stopped. When I rang back, a voice said something like "your number's now verified." So I tried calling again and got told "your number is already verified." Bit odd, if you ask me!

I picked up the phone but the person just ended the call straight away.
