Got 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!

Some bloke rang me saying he was from my council, claiming they’d got my info from the NHS or something like that. He kept insisting I’d reported an accident linked to my number and address. The signal was awful so I kept saying I couldn’t hear him properly, but then he started getting really rude and pushy. I just ended the call quickly. Sounds like a total scam to me. Watch out for this kind of nonsense!

Got a call from some number in Brecon, Wales. They claimed they had info about an accident I was supposedly in, saying they found it through the NHS. I know the NHS wouldn’t share stuff like that because of the Data Protection Act from 1998 - that’s illegal. Plus, I’ve never been in any accident. These scammers are just trying to trick you, so don’t share anything with them and just hang up.

Got a call from this number claiming I’d been in some kind of accident and that he was with the NHS. I wasn’t buying it at all, told him as much, then he started getting all rude. So, I just told him off proper and slammed the phone down. What cheeky blokes!

Got a couple of calls today from someone saying they were with Leicester City Council or maybe the NHS investigation team. They said it was about an accident recently. I asked straight away, “What’s the name of the person involved? It’s a shared house, you know.” They said, “Yeah, I’m aware.” Then it went really quiet for a bit. So I said, “Right, this is Detective Inspector Seamus Muhldoon from the Leicestershire Police fraud unit. Who am I speaking to?” No answer. I kept trying, “Hello? Are you there, Mr whoever from the council or NHS?” And would you believe it - they just hung up on me! Never bothered to call back. Honestly, you can’t get good people these days! ;) Detective Inspector Muhldoon always does the trick!

I just got a call from someone saying they were from Leicester city council, talking about some accident or a fall. They claimed to have my number from the NHS, which is odd because they don’t even have my landline listed! When I kept denying anything happened, they brought on their supposed boss. The boss kept asking the same question, and I kept saying no. Suddenly, the first caller started yelling at me, calling me a liar and insisting I agreed to something. I stayed calm and challenged them, asking exactly when I supposedly said yes and when the accident took place. Then the call just cut off. I tried ringing back but only got a busy signal. This was unreal!

Got a phone call from someone saying they were Leicester City Council, telling me I'd been in some sort of accident. I told them I hadn’t had any accident and to stop calling me. Definitely just another dodgy scam.

I just got a ring from some bloke claiming he was calling from Leicester City Council, saying they got my info from the NHS about a recent mishap. I asked him about the data protection stuff, told him the NHS wouldn't share my details without me agreeing to it... then he just ended the call! Bit worrying really.

Got a call from someone saying he was John with Leicester City Council (we're actually the county, not the city!). He started talking about an accident I supposedly had. Told him what I thought and then just ended the call. Wouldn't pick up if I was you!

Got a call from some bloke called Mike supposedly from Leicester City Council, though we're not even in the city, more like the county! He was talking about a car crash from December 2014, which never happened. Didn't give any extra details either. I asked him for a contact number so I could call back, and he gave me 0116 454 000 - but that number isn't real!

Got a call supposedly from Birmingham City Council, claiming someone reported an accident at my place and asking if I wanted to file a claim. I said no, and they just cut me off! Seriously, who even are these people and how on earth do they get hold of unlisted numbers? The phone companies really need to step up and deal with these scumbags. It's annoying how they keep targeting vulnerable older people with these scams!

I got a call from a bloke named Daniel who claimed to be from Derbyshire County Council. He said there was an accident I’d supposedly been involved in over the past couple of years. When I said that was rubbish and no such thing happened, he got pretty pushy and insisted that someone at my place must be feeding them lies. I told him he was the one getting his facts wrong and ended the call. I've since reported the number to Derbyshire County Council.

I got a call from this number and the person claimed to be from the council at first, then suddenly said they worked for the NHS talking about some accident. I ended up just hanging up. Later on, I tried ringing the same number back but it said the number isn’t valid. How does that even make sense?

Somebody rang me pretending to be from the local council saying there’d been an accident reported and they were about to send a legal notice out. When I asked for a contact number at the council to check it out, they got really annoyed and started being rude. I kept asking for a number and then they just ended the call on me.

Actually got a call like this too, some guy claiming he was from the local council in Derbyshire and mentioned something about the NHS. Crazy timing, cause I was actually in A&E just the day before! He tried to ask if I’d been in a car crash, I told him no. Then he switched to asking if it was a work accident, nope again, just a sprained ankle. After that, he just ended the call straight away. It was around 1:02pm on 26/5/15.

I received a call claiming to be from the NHS, saying they were reaching out regarding some alleged incident we were involved in. The funny thing is, we haven't had any accidents at all! Clearly, this isn't a genuine NHS call.
