Today, I received a rather dubious phone call from a lady who purported to be representing an outfit known as the Road Accident Investigation Department. She informed me that I qualify for compensation due to a car accident that supposedly occurred last month. I can assure you, no such incident took place. It's clear to me that this is a scam attempting to swindle unsuspecting individuals.

Got a call from a foreign guy who sounded quite young, saying I'd been in some kind of accident. When I told him he was just wasting my time and called him a liar and a scammer, he didn’t seem happy at all. He called me back three times in a row! Eventually, I told him to bugger off and have now blocked the number.

Received a call from someone named David on 01618188224, telling me I'd been in an accident sometime in the last couple of years and hadn’t received my full compensation. That’s totally not true. When I asked where they got my phone number, they just kept saying it was passed on by a company. Quite dodgy if you ask me.

I've been getting loads of calls from different numbers, always saying I've been in an accident. Sounds like a scam to me. Mostly it's some automated voice from a different number every time, probably recording what I say. I usually just stay quiet and hang up straight away.

I put up an advert on Gumtree and almost straight away, like within a couple of minutes, I got hit with three calls from different numbers - all dodgy I reckon. They all had Asian accents and repeated the same exact story, something about a car crash I supposedly had in the past three years. By the time the second and third calls came through, I told them I’d need their info since I was onto the scam and planned on reporting them. As soon as I said that, the line just cut off. Definitely steer clear of these people!

I keep getting calls from people with an Asian accent, always asking if I’ve been in a car crash or about my car insurance. They’re really persistent about it.

Got a call from someone pretending to be from insurance, asking loads of questions about supposed accidents. Total scam, watch out!

They kept saying they were with the motor insurance bureau. When I asked how they got my info, they just said some other team passed it on. I requested their company registration number for verification, but they ignored it and kept pressing about an accident supposedly in the past couple of years!! Definitely dodgy, avoid and block!

Got a call from someone with a strong foreign accent asking about an accident I supposedly had in the past couple of years. I just told them to bugger off and ended the call. I’m not quite sure what their game is - maybe they promise some kind of payout but want your bank info to sort it out? Seems dodgy to me.

They claimed to be from the national accident helpline, but I’m not convinced. The caller had a strong Indian accent. I mentioned the telephone preference service, which usually ends calls straight away. Not this time though - they kept rambling on about some accident and paperwork they said I’d begun. If it was such a serious crash, I’ve no memory of it whatsoever. I hung up after a while. Since then, I’ve been bombarded with multiple calls from similar numbers all within about 30 minutes. Definitely steer clear of these.

I got calls today from someone with an Asian accent, about 4 times. Each call they used a different company name but when I asked for a website or the company registration number, they usually just hung up. Pretty sus situation!

They got all flustered when I asked, mentioned something about the motor insurer’s claims team. Definitely sounded like some dodgy ambulance chaser to me.

Got called by a cold caller, sounded like they had an asian accent, twice today. The first call was about some accident I supposedly had in the past two years, which I denied and just ended the call. The second time, they claimed to be from a ‘UK solicitor company’ saying I have about £4,200 in unpaid compensation. I didn’t bother and hung up straight away again.
