11 yearsGot a call from someone with a weird accent claiming to be from my local council about some injury claim linked to my phone number. I could barely make out what he was saying, so I just ended the call and looked up the number here to see if it was legit!11 yearsReceived a phone call from an individual who asserted he was contacting me on behalf of my local council. He alleged that they had provided him with my information from the NHS database or some other source (connection was poor) and that I had reported an accident using this number or address! I repeatedly informed him that I couldn't comprehend his message due to the faulty line, but he became increasingly aggressive towards me! Eventually, I hung up. This event is undoubtedly indicative of a scam!!! Exercise caution!NHS11 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to be from Brecon in Wales. Supposedly, they wanted to offer me compensation for an accident they found out about through the NHS. It is important to note that the NHS does not disclose any personal information, as it is legally protected by the Data Protection Act of 1998. Any attempt to do so would be considered a criminal offense. Additionally, I have not been involved in any accidents whatsoever. These individuals are clearly fraudsters, and it is crucial to avoid sharing any personal details with them. Simply direct them elsewhere and disregard their claims.BreconWalesNHS11 yearsRecently, I received a call from an individual claiming that I was involved in an accident. This person furtherclaimed to be affiliated with the NHS. I promptly dismissed their statement and voiced my doubt, which led them to become confrontational. In response, I advised them unpleasantly to leave me alone and ended the call. It's quite audacious of them to behave in such a manner.NHS11 yearsPlease refrain from trusting the advice of the foolish council members, as they may be deceitful. Stay vigilant.11 yearsI just received a phone call from someone claiming to be from Leicester City Council regarding an accident or incident, suggesting that they obtained my contact information from the NHS. However, it's important to note that the NHS does not have my home phone number. When I repeatedly informed them that I didn't have any accidents, they brought their superior into the conversation. The supervisor once again asked me the same question, and I responded by denying any incidents once again. Suddenly, the original caller started shouting and verbally abusing me, repeatedly calling me a liar and insisting that I had indeed said yes to an accident. Despite their aggressive behavior, I remained calm and composed, asking them to specify when I supposedly agreed to have had an accident and when it occurred. Eventually, the call abruptly ended. I tried to return their call but repeatedly encountered a busy tone. Quite astonishing!Leicester City CouncilNHS11 yearsReceived a phone call from someone who claimed to be representing the Leicester City Council regarding an accident I had allegedly been involved in.

He mentioned an accident that I was supposedly involved in within the past two years.
