Got hoodwinked by some dodgy diesel scam, watch out folks!

They somehow have my car info and home address, which is pretty unsettling. When they asked for my date of birth, I gave them a fake one along with a made-up email. When I asked how they got my info, they just said I told them myself. Feels like some sketchy personal data collection combined with that diesel emission scam. They also sent me a link in a text asking me to click it, but I just deleted it straight away. Now I’m slowly gathering whatever info I can about them to try and take action.

This number comes up as Rotherham and claims to be from diesel claims. They said my name and even knew my diesel car reg plate. I've told them repeatedly to remove me from their database. I've also had a few calls from London and Bolton numbers, all supposedly from the same company. Each time I block one number, they ring back from another. When I questioned where they got my details from, they just ended the call. One time, they said it was because someone had asked about me, which is total rubbish, and when I called them out on it, they hung up again.

Like loads of others, I keep gettin calls sayin I’ve filed a claim about diesel emissions. When I ask where they got my info from, they just drop the call. I’ve told them to remove my number from their list, but they just ignore it.

I've been bombarded with calls from this number repeatedly. I suspect that my contact details were leaked by Garden Dreams, a Scottish plant retailer I interacted with through the B&Q site.

Today alone, I’ve received multiple calls from various numbers, one being 01709 248700. Each time, it's someone claiming to represent a Diesel Claims company. I’ve never been interested in any claims about diesel emissions and made that clear each time. I also told them I’m on the TPS and don’t want to be contacted. It feels like it’s bordering on harassment now with all these repeated calls.

I've had this number ring me up four different times now, and it's definitely one of those dodgy diesel emission cons. Every time, I drag out the chat as long as I can and tell them if they bother again, I'll do it all over - but still, they keep on ringing.

I've received my fair share of nuisance calls from this number lately. I tend to ignore them since I'm not acquainted with anyone from that region, and if they were really legitimate, surely they would drop a message, wouldn’t they?

I've been getting loads of calls from various numbers about diesel emissions stuff, which I've been blocking one by one. They keep saying there was a cheat gadget on a car I supposedly owned. Thing is, I’m an engineer at the company that made the car, and I’ve told them repeatedly that this isn't true - there were never any cheat devices fitted. But they just keep ringing anyway. Does anyone know how I can make my phone number invisible to these lot?

Got a call around 7 in the evening, the caller ID said it was from Rotherham but we all know that’s probably fake. I’m fed up of these annoying calls coming from different numbers, sometimes two or three times daily. Luckily, everyone who’s got my number is saved in my contacts, so if it’s an ‘Unknown Caller’ I just don’t answer and block them straight away. I always make sure to report them here as well.

No matter how many times I ask them to take me off their list, they just keep ringing. I block one number and then another one pops up from somewhere else. It’s like I’m getting bombarded with three calls every single day now. Honestly, it’s really annoying.

This number popped up a few times and every single time it was some kind of scam. Sometimes they don't even say a word when you answer. Definitely added it to my block list.

I’ve asked them loads of times to take me off their list but they just keep ringing from new numbers constantly, so blocking doesn’t help at all. It’s been so frustrating. I even reported them to the ICO. I’m currently getting over cancer treatment, and yet they still bother me with phone calls three or four times a day! It’s just relentless.

I received a call from someone claiming to be part of the Credit Investigation Team, supposedly linked to the FCA. They insisted they had legal grounds to inform me about some alleged unpaid debts. I promptly told them where to go and requested they refrain from contacting me in future. I've filed a report regarding their number with the FCA, and I suggest you all do the same! Honestly, the timing couldn't have been more terrible. I’m not aware of any debts on my part aside from the ones I’m currently managing. At that moment, I was anxiously awaiting a call from the police about a friend in crisis. Such despicable individuals!

This number keeps ringing my phone, and I can’t seem to call them back. It’s a bit of a mystery, really, as they don’t bother to leave a voicemail. Quite frustrating!

I've received two calls from the same number. The first one claimed that I was entitled to a payout of £3,500 for insurance, while the second just informed me that I could obtain a refund for something I'd never even heard of. It's clear that this is nothing but a scam!

I received a rather peculiar call from someone claiming to be offering additional government life insurance. The chap had a thick Asian accent and insisted he was based in Manchester. Things got a bit heated when I politely declined to disclose my age; he accused me of discrimination for not sharing that information. Quite the experience, I must say!

Absolutely a dodgy operation. They rang me up claiming I had a PPI payout of £2500 awaiting me, and they promptly requested my bank details, assuring me the funds would be in my account within 19 days. When I pressed them about where this supposed PPI originated from, they were extremely evasive, and after several attempts to get a straight answer, they simply hung up on me. Normally, I wouldn't bother sharing my experience, but with Christmas on the horizon and the ongoing challenges posed by COVID, it's utterly infuriating to see these con artists trying to rob hard-working individuals during such a tricky time. Honestly, don't engage with these calls; it’s best to either let them go to voicemail or block the number immediately! 😊

I received a call from someone purporting to be from a UK refunds service, alleging that I’m entitled to a refund of £3500 for mis-sold PPI. Strangely enough, they rang me again from a different number just thirty minutes later. Quite peculiar, if you ask me!
