6 yearsGot a call from a lady saying there was a cheque for £2900 waiting for me. She said someone named John Willson would drop it off if I bought an Amazon voucher for £175 first. After hearing all that, I’m really relieved I didn’t fall for it.John WilsonAmazon7 yearsSo, this bloke said they had a cheque waiting for me, £2900 for PPI compensation. Then they told me I needed to get a £150 Amazon voucher first. Apparently Vihen John Wilson would pop by with the cheque and all the documents but they’d need that voucher payment since they can’t take cash. They even gave me a reference number. Sounds dodgy, don’t you think?AmazonJohn Wilson7 yearsA lady from the claims advisory team called saying they had a cheque of £2900 for me, but she told me I needed to purchase £150 in Amazon gift cards before they could send it out. Then she asked me to ring them back.Claims Advisory GroupAmazon7 yearsThey informed me that they had successfully secured my PPI claim and just needed to send me a cheque.
