From what others have said, this looks like a scam tied to car finance. I've got some details too - a name, a reg number and the phone number they’re using.

This bloke said he was from Phoenix Insurance and actually knew my car reg. He tried to say I was owed some money for a hire purchase check on my vehicle. I just told him to jog on, hung up straight away and blocked the number.

They seem to have bits of your personal info, like your car’s number plate and stuff, then try to trick you with a story about finance mis-selling. Feels like a total scam.

Someone called saying they were from Phoenix Finance and even mentioned my car reg number. Then, out of nowhere, they just cut the call while I was still talking.

Like a few others mentioned, this sounds like one of those dodgy car finance scams or some sneaky phishing trying to pull together your info. Basically, it’s about selling you a financing deal that’s not on the level.

Got a call from some call centre in India. They wanted to talk to my boss by his name but when I said he wasn't available and asked what the call was about, they just ended the call straight away.

Got a call from someone saying they were from "Phoenix Legal," sounded foreign. Total money scam, watch out!

Got a call from some finance scammers who mentioned my car's reg and claimed I might be entitled to some sort of claim. Thing is, the registration they read out wasn’t even one that could get a claim, but I only found that out later. Complete rubbish.

Got a call from someone who had my car's reg and claimed I might’ve been tricked with some finance deal. I told them straight I hadn’t, and they should buzz off. Then I went ahead and blocked the number.
